Rooney Rule: WTF?


MHS831

Recommended Posts

I think the minority coaches in the NFL should be allowed to vote on it. I would wager that they would have it removed. It is not fair to minorities, it is easy to get around, and I seriously don't think we are in the kind of place where Rooney rules and affirmative action are necessary. Rules like this create racial divides. Some of these coaches are forced to turn down interviews because they know that they are not serious candidates. This hurts their chances in a few years when the job opens again.

The Rooney rule is not fair to minority coaches and needs to be removed. Furthermore, it is not necessary any longer (JR is a deep south country boy--his first two choices were minorities). Winning and losing are the only colors in the NFL--and green.

    • this is true.  But NFL Ss and defenses are actively taking that away and playing to take them away vs most teams.  The problem thus far in BY's career......is they are cheating and not respecting the deep game which makes the smaller/mid range game harder to pull off.  and Dallas is an anomaly game.  using those random games as well, look at this......doesn't really change the discussion/issues in Carolina.  Bryce Young took the shots this week because they were not just NFL open but college open.    Wide open dudes downfield that really were coverage busts/issues. 
    • I will simply counter all that with: you should always strive, at every turn, to avoid indoctrinating young players into a culture of not playing to win the game.  Come man, that is an egghead academic approach that ignores the human element. it looks good on paper. Maybe.  In the voice of the great  Herm Edwards: Hello! You play to win the game.  I completely understand the need but that is not the way….
