good for him, from what I saw he clearly has no business being a HC

I don't necessarily think you are wrong, but Fewell was put into a no-win situation last year where a significant percentage of guys on the team had flat-out quit.

Regardless, I think Fewell was a stand-up guy, and this is a great job and I'm happy for him

I don't know if Fewell would be a good coach, but Vince Lombardi would have looked bad put into the situation he was last year.

The Panthers had put him in this position thinking he was a good interim HC and this is not his fault for not being that good of one especially with no experience in the position. The no business part is nonsense and this comment is as well.
