It would have been laughable to give that guy a job considering how badly things went in Cleveland. It definitely wasn't an ideal way to re-energize fans and sell seats.
Now, almost 2 years later, I think many on here, myself included would probably trade Zac and his band of merry assholes for Hue and whatever arrangement of actual NFL assistants he could bring on board. I've seen Hue coordinate offenses, and he was a damn sight better at it than this guy is.
That was before he went to Cleveland.
They were trying to make up a contract that would have turned the reigns over to him after Marvin retired, but couldn't come up with the terms in time before Cleveland demanded a decision from him. I think I recall seeing that the sticking point was going to be how long the HC contract would be.
