I thought this was a good article. The gist was everyone wants the next McVay.
The trouble could come in giving in to desperation for the next McVay without realizing the unique, freakish skill set of those who succeeded.
Look no further than the 2016 coaching carousel. Everyone in search of the next great offensive mind went into the carnival and came out with their prize.
The Philadelphia Eagles landed Pederson, 50, who led them to their first Super Bowl. Fans can point to him and yell into the night: ‘Go get that guy!’
But wait one second, Pederson was one of seven.
Miami got Adam Gase, Tampa Dirk Koetter, Cleveland Jackson, San Francisco Chip Kelly, NY Giants Ben McAdoo and Tennessee Mike Mularkey. All also from offensive backgrounds.
Three years later all have been fired. The majority went down in flames.
--------------
Gase, Koetter, Jackson while with the Bengals all were successful OC's. Kelly was a hot college commodity.
Being a successful OC and being a great HC are different traits. You need way more skills like leadership, communication, ect.
