The Next Head Coach

Quite frankly, I’m at a loss as to whom the next coach should be. I would rule out:

  • Fox - hasn’t won in years
  • Rivera - Ditto
  • Garrett - the cowboys are loaded, and look at the record.
  • McCarthy - check out some of the criticisms in Green Bay. The offense wasn’t innovative, and defenses were calling out the plays before they were run.
  • Greg Roman - great with running QBs, but running QBs don’t last in the NFL. Lamar Jackson is going to have a very short career.

To coach in NY, here are the requirements:

  1. The job is demanding and stressful. Managing the press is a big part of the job. The HC is more CEO than coordinator. Can’t call his own plays.
  2. Needs to have a big personality. Parcells was ideal, as was Pat Riley. Rex Ryan was a clown.
  3. Needs to be a bit of a taskmaster and a motivator. There are tons of distractions in NY, and that’s what it takes to keep the players focused.
  4. Too bad we can’t hire Belichick.
  5. I HATE systems coaches. The best coaches adapt their playbook and play calling to the players at hand. For example, if your LT is overmatched, don’t leave him on an island.
  6. Needs to hire a stellar QB coach.
  7. Ditto offensive line coach.
  8. Must have a track record of developing young talent,
Any Ideas? Who fits this profile? Josh McDaniel checks a lot (but not all) of these boxes.
