Head Coach Poll

Sure. These guys would be the obvious answer, especially if we want to win games, but the Rooney’s have proven in the past that they don’t require a proven track record or culture of winning. He could be an ideal candidate.

 

With all the great, young candidates that are available to interview and bring here as the head coach, why would the team be interested in a coach that was replaced for having a horrible record and under a new head coach are now one of the best teams in the NFL in a very short time?

It simply doesn't make any sense.

No AFC North HC retreads

 

Mayo would be one of the last people they should hire the Patriots fired him after one season .

 

On the surface it doesn’t, but a decade or two ago, I remember there was this one team that selected this guy who had no proven HC experience or even much of a body of work at all for that matter. Despite not being good at time management, controlling a locker room, beating teams with subpar records, or winning games that matter, this guy was allowed to stick around year after year after year. He would just show up to the post game briefs make his eyes look real big and say witty things that made him sound tough. Much of the media ate that up and insisted he was a good HC despite what I had mentioned.

For the life of me, I can’t remember which team it was at the moment, but it will come to me.

 

I prefer Matt Canada....Yes Mayo is that bad

 

No thank you. I’m an avid TN Vols fan and appreciate his play @ UT and his time @ New England. But, his sample size is too small to be head coach for the Steelers.

Idk if he would be able to put together an elite staff.

 

You bitched about Tomlin every chance you got because he couldn't win (playoff) games but you want to replace him with someone who was let go because he couldn't win games???

 

Nauseous.

 

Vrabel winning with Mayo's team LMAO.

 

Well, for many, yes, I see your point and it's for fun.

 

Whoever it is I hope they have more than 1 year as a coordinator.

 

Mayo does have head coaching experience, and it was so bad they fired him after one season.

Mike Tomlin had no experience as a head coach, but they saw something in him. They hired him and he was the face of the franchise for 19 seasons.

These are the two men you are trying to compare?

 

People are throwing this around far too much. They've done it twice. A sample size of 2 doesn't prove ****. For all we know the Rooney's strongly preferred experience, but both Cowher and Tomlin blew them away in the interviews.

 

As a fan, have you ever been blown away by anything that Mike Tomlin has done? If the Rooney’s were blown away, what does that say about the bar that they must have set?

 

You have to realize that the OP is being sarcastic.

 

I have no doubt that if I was holding job interviews, Tomlin would interview very well, regardless of what the job was.

 

DAB

 

I think you are giving him too much credit
