The popular name is of course BB and, setting aside the manifest impossibility of this organization doing something that smart, that’s the direction I would prefer they go. I’m neutral on Belichick himself, but him or someone like him — an experienced, proven, championship coach who would command instant respect in the locker room and would bring with him quality, proven assistants — is what’s needed, imho.
But that would cost a huge amount of money, so that’s out.
So yeah, I could get behind someone like Vrabel, who has the experience and at least some record of success. There would be competition. Bears, Jets and Saints all reported to be interested in Vrabel. But yeah you would think the chance to start out with a franchise QB in his prime and the best receiver in the league would be attractive.
If all they are going to do is hire another cheap assistant jock strap stretcher, may as well stick with the one we have.
