I just find it funny that the guy Taylor had fundamentally different views with is a highly qualified candidate, while the guy he potentially sees as a fit is yet another guy he worked with in Miami. A guy who hasn't had much success anywhere.
Maybe these are all diamonds in the rough. We'll see soon enough.
When it comes to Del Rio - if I had to bet my house - I would guess at least part of it was trust / personality. Del Rio has that big dog personality with a very healthy ego to go with it. As a young, first time head coach, you gotta have a guy who buys into to what you're selling...someone who shares your vision and approach. He may have not been comfortable with the idea of Del Rio looking over his shoulder or second guessing him.
Of course, that's all just conjecture on my part, but I think that it had to play a part. When you look at McVay, he was able to go out and get a guy like Wade Phillips, who had a personality that meshed very well with his...which they've both talked about.
As for Anarumo - who I don't know a lot about, if he does get the job, I sure as hell he makes the most of it.
