Any coach who sits his best offensive player when you are behind, have the ball and the game is on the line deserves to be fired.

GW took a team with a lot of positives and just a few negatives, and managed to completely accentuate the negatives.

WOW! Lenny P really went out on a limb and risked his journalistic integrity with that prediction. Talk about fearless...:rolleyes:

"One thing Donahoe won't do this time around, you can bet, is to hire a guy who doesn't have previous head coaching experience."

wonder if that means he wont look at the college ranks either? i hope this statement is incorrect.

Head coaching experience- tells me he's looking for a guy who was a head coach. If he's talking about Pro Head coach- he's narrowed the field to 2 -3 guys oor whomever gets fired.


I think that includes college- I don't see another "Pro" qualifier

I would think Coughlin would be one of his choices.

I agree that Coughlin should be a candidate, but I'd have to concede to the thoughts that, right now, TD is keeping a very close eye on what happens in New Orleans. There are too many connections to ignore:
*TD and Haslett worked together in Pittsburgh
*Haslett played for the Bills
*Haslett's wife has WNY roots
*Haslett has HC experience


Jim Haslett certainly wouldn't be my first choice, but I'm not convinced that he'd completely suck here either. I do think this is the guy that TD's radar is locked onto right now though.

I want Haslett. No college coach please. Really.

No way- he's the anti-candidate. He's taken 2 talented clubs in the NFL and run them into the ground.

College seems to fit him perfectly- keep him there

I feel the same exact way. Coughlin's my first choice but I have strong feeling that Haslett's our guy next season. You've touched on most of the reasons already. Haslett has done a lot of underachieving but in all fairness to him they've lost more good talent than they've brought in, especially on defense and OL. Offensively they have Deuce and Joe Horn but that's about it and Joe Horn is as harmful as he is talented.
