I’m so happy Rhule is gone.  I just think wishing for some of the names  on the interview list is a mistake.

I’m not a fan of hiring a coordinator that has  never been an HC. It’s such a different role and level of responsibility. That’s just my feelings  and I know others are ready for that gamble.

Literally Every coach was never a HC at some point. They eventually show enough to garner a HC position.

Retreads tend not to work out at roughly the same rate. Best thing a new HC can do is bring a former HC onto the staff to help provide insight and take some pressure off.

Spot on. In addition, interim coaches have a horrible track record!

This link from last year has some info on head coaching backgrounds and likelihood of success: 

https://www.the33rdteam.com/category/breakdowns/is-it-possible-to-predict-nfl-head-coach-success/#:~:text=Nearly all (89.3%) had,progressed to the NFL level.

According to their chart, a coach with 6-12 years of HC experience at the NFL level may average ~1 more win per season than those with no prior NFL HC experience. Negligible difference for those with 1-5 and 12+ years of NFL HC experience. 

If only Tepper had seen this article before Rhule. They found diminishing returns at the NFL level correlating to longer tenures as college HCs.

Saints obviously said no. Not sure how we could conceive that they would even be an option.
