After seeing some of the posts on how you fix this team, some of you are more broken than this organization.
You need to hire a no nonsense, hard-ass coach. These players are not playing at a professional level and they need a coach to bring that out of them. Now who's going to do it? Cowher isn't going to coach here, Gruden would be a long shot, so they're not in the conversation. Who is?
Vin Fangio - He's been in the Ravens Organization as an Asst Head Coach, and he's been with Jim Harbaugh since 2010. He's currently the 49ers DC. He's widely given credit for the turn-around of the 49ers defensive unit last year. He was also the DC in Houston when Mario Williams was drafted.
Dick Lebeau - Is there a more attractive candidate anywhere? His first stint as a HC wasn't a smash hit and at this stage of the game he probably wouldn't leave Pittsburgh but he's a defensive genius.
Gus Bradley - Hand groomed by Monte Kiffin, Bradley managed to keep his job in Seattle under the regime change and after getting a few pieces in place he improved the Seahawks defense to a top 10 squad last year. This year they're a force obviously.
Rob Ryan - Garrett will most likely be out in Dallas meaning his staff will be looking for work. Ryan worked under Bellicheck from 2000-2003, he went on to become the DC in Oakland, where his squad was up and down, but much like organization. Since then he's headed up the defense in CLE and now in DAL, middle of the pack in both places but this year the Cowboys are top 5 in YPG and in total points. Given his family history he may be on the list.
Chip Kelly - Easily one of the most hyped coaches in the college ranks in recent memory. Many teams will be knocking on his door and I doubt he answers any calls, never mind Buffalo's. I'm also not convinced he could make it in the pro's.
Andy Reid - Based on the latest disaster in Philly Reid will probably take a year or two off before looking for a new gig. But his name will certainly be thrown around. I could see him benefiting from a change of scenery being his major flaw was laying the team in Vicks hands.
I think whoever comes in would have to deal with the elephant in the room. Fitzpatrick. He will forever be tied to Gailey and his regime and ultimately will have to go. I don't know if a QB is a must in the 2013 draft but a scheme change on offense is. Ball control! Throw the ball 20x a game max. Get smart on defense and control the football.
