Something about both being "business minded" or having a "CEO style approach" to his coaching. That kinda stuff is always really cheesy to me. 

That'd make about as much sense to me as "yeah, he was once a fry cook and he dresses sloppy" 😕

Yes but was he a short order cook that is the important question. We better not go after these coaches no one has ever heard of.

Yeah Tepper needs to go on Undercover Boss-Panthers edition before he starts rationalizing any more staffing hires based on irrelevant things he personally can relate to.

For whatever reason, It doesn't seem to want to give him the defensive coordinator title.

It basically means that he can interview for DC jobs elsewhere even though he's technically already doing the job.

Kinda dumb, but yeah. Belichick is his own person.

(even when that person might be stupid)

Isn't Belichick's son also involved in the defense there. Might not want to officially make him an underling.  Yea, I agree...dumb.

I'm not put off my J.Mayo at all. I kinda like what Dan Campbell has done out there in Detroit. Former players that can be good coaches seem to have a certain "it" factor. If Mayo can lead like Campbell and assemble a good stuff, I'm all aboard. I think people get too stuck on offensive coach vs defensive. You need the right coach, McDermott is a great example of this. That offense functions and he is smart enough to know to not go the conservative route. I think recent former players understand the new NFL better anyways, they played it. They know conservative O and calls don't win games anymore.

Unfortunately, I've heard similar things said about other coaches from The Belichick tree.

The ones who leave that nest just never seem to accomplish anything away from it.

I do think Mayo could break the mold and would be an intriguing HC candidate. I don't think he's a serious contender for the Panthers job, but anecdotally it seems like recent ex-LBs have made for some pretty good coaching candidates (Vrabel, Ryans).

I would think this is more like a Vrabel then a Patricia/McDaniels. High level former player I think makes a big difference. Those guys were leaders on the field too. It makes a difference if you can translate that to coaching.

Why is several media people all of a sudden concentrating on the LB coach of the Patriots for HC that no one has ever heard of and he is acting like he is an emerging potential top choice. 
All indications is Tepper wants a OC as coach and the only DC I would accept is Ryan’s. 
Also when has a Patriots coach ever made a good HC?

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
