Why Joe Brady?

I agree. Look at what Ron Rivera is doing with Washington right now. They were horrible the last few years, and the start of this year. His coaching is turning things around in the second half of the season.

I'd strongly prefer the best, most proven coach available. Someone without the stench of failure. I like Caldwell (ex coach of Lions), but he stinks of failure. I like the Falcons ex coach, but he stinks of failure from all those late game collapses--starting with the Super Bowl.

I would go with someone like the defensive coordinator for the 9ers. They lost a lot of players on D, and they're still playing pretty decent. He's a great coach. Many see him as the best available HC candidate this year.

I also like Bielemy based on what you hear out of KC. I didn't hear anything like that being said about Zac Taylor from his days in LA. Nobody made any bold proclamations like they're doing in KC.

Both of these coaches don't have the stench of loss attached to them either. Yeah, I guess the 9ers D did lose out late in the Super Bowl, but Patrick freakin' Mahomes is what happened.

I'd rather have a proven 'top level' coach in this league, than an unproven coach that hasn't put in his time. It worked somewhat with Marv, use the same method, but hope for a better result.
