Does anyone else find this offensive?

Last night during the Dallas/Skins game the announcers were talking about the NFL rule that a team must interview a minority before hiring a new HC. Snyder interviewed one of his coordinaters and asked Goddell if that counted. Does anyone else find this offensive?

I find it offensive because, imo, it seems like minorities that are being interviewed can be under the impression that they are there only because of the color of their skin and not their abilities.

The NFL is a billion dollar business. Doesn't it make sense for owners to hire the best coach regardless of the color of their skin. I wanted Singletary for Carolina. I thought he was the best coach for us because of his intensity and history of winning as a player. He knows how to win and won't settle for less.

Am I just wierd or something because I think this is just flat out insulting?

So what if he has an eye on another guy what dose it matter that guy is gonna get the Pos. I mean there are plenty of good black coaches in the NFL. If the Redskins dont want them hell thats there loss. Why dose everything have to be put under a microscope these days.

Really, threads about race never go over well anywhere. Just let the NFL do what they think is best, and hopefully we get more and more black coaches in professional sports.

It most of the time hits the tinderbox real fast.......

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
