    I think Reid is a good coach, but I wouldn't want him as our coach and here is why:

    He consistently bails on rushing the ball, even when it is purely evident he should rush the ball more.

    When K.C. started off 5-0, they were rushing Hunt a lot, including when they upset the Pats week 1. Then, in their first loss (to Pgh) they mysteriously stopped giving Hunt the rock.

    http://www.espn.com/nfl/player/gamelog/_/id/3059915/kareem-hunt

    Look at their losses; he barely touched the ball. Now, I realize one could argue he had less carries because they were losing, but that is simply not true. In the playoff loss to TN, they were winning but Andy decided to keep throwing the ball, instead of giving Hunt some more carries.

    He did the same thing in Philly too. They had a very effective rushing game, but Andy went pass happy and they underachieved in the postseason.

    It's just not smart. He falls in love with the passing game too much, even when he could win by rushing more.

    No thanks. For that alone, I wouldn't want him to coach the Steelers.

    I want Mike Tomlin as the Steelers head coach. The discussion ends there with me.

    Sure, we’ll take him right after Alabama try’s to get him. Them looking would make as much sense as us looking.

    Sure, a massive downgrade is always the way to go.

    I think someone makes this crap up just to get attention.

    Other than Belichick all NFL coaches are pretty questionable.

    :huh:

    Why stop there? Maybe we could could lure mediocre Marvin away from the Bungles to be the defensive coordinator and Hue Jackson from the Stains to be the offensive coordinator.:popcorn:

    Is it Sunday yet??:stogie:

    He runs the west coast offense, where they script the first 15 plays. Maybe he is dyslexic and scripts the first 51 plays :roflmao:

    Odd thread. Would make more sense if OP was making a case for Reid to be the Steelers HC.

    Seems like an attempt to post non Steeler topic in the main forum.

    The other forums do get read guys.

    By "Steelers HC", I assume you mean OC, which is what I was thinking the OP meant. (unless I'm missing something, which isn't unusual)

    According to the announcers when KC played Pit, drawing up plays is all Andy wants to do.
    Either way, I think he's a perfect fit in KC.

    Nope, he meant HC. As for writing up plays, Reid serves as his own OC. Up until just recently, he also called the plays but handed that duty over to someone else but he still designs the plays himself.

    I would rank Reid below Tomlin on the NFL coaching hierarchy so no.

    Maybe we can make a daily series out of this topic? In tomorrow's series it will be "would you want Herman Edwards as the Steelers head coach"

    I'm with blast there's some shenanigans going on here.
