slowmo posted:Nice strawman there. Didn't say MM is a coach for life. Just merely asked who the better coach replacement is. Rather simple question.
Ready, fire, aim. #set up for failure
There is no point naming names. First off, no one has been fired. Secondly, there are no names that anyone that could list that would satisfy you. Hell, you already listed off 4 coaches that you *know* won't come and it would be stupid to suggest.
How about we suggest an OC with no head coaching experience of a sub .500 team? Would that work for you as an answer for your "simple question"?
Of course not. You'd **** all over that. YOU WANT TO FIRE A GUY THAT WON THE SUPER BOWL FOR A COORDINATOR? A COORDINATOR OF A BAD TEAM?
Yet, Thompson went with an OC of a crap team after firing Sherman. You'd **** all over that. You'd **** all over every name.
If you don't trust Ted Thompson so much that you think his sitting on a coach that has been at the helm of some of the most epic choke jobs in playoff history and now is 2 games under .500 in his last 20 games is preferably to the dangers of Thompson making another hire, that's your prerogative.
Personally, I trust Thompson, but to each his own.
