I followed all 8 HC openings very closely and kept a running record of all interview requests and interviews.

LaFleur only had one lined up. With us. Since we had no competition we could've easily taken more time to make a better informed decision.

Last year his Titans interview was reported in the media for a head coach gig but in reality the interview was actually for a coordinator gig.

If hiring LaFleur was only because he was willing to keep Pettine then that is terrible thinking. You hire the best head coach and worry about the rest later.

If you are just a fan sitting at home and not someone who works for these organizations, you simply have no idea. You can follow as close as you want sitting on your couch, but that does not mean much. There could have been multiple teams that had a real interest and were ready to bring him in. This is nothing more than your own speculation and in no way factual.

The first three games of the season Henry averaged over 15 carries per game (10, 18, 18) for a total of 139 yards (3.0 ypc). The Jags game really screws all the Henry's stats this season.

I never understood or respected the “take the big gains” out of the stats argument.  You can’t penalize them for huge runs. They’re a good thing including 99 yarders.

Just because you don’t hear about an interview, doesn’t mean it wasn’t in the works or didn’t/wouldn’t happen. Also, why assume Gute and MM didn’t make an informed decision? They interviewed a lot of guys. They found one they liked and they moved on him.

They hired LaFleur because he was the clear cut best interview.

Also, he gets first pick of his coaching staff while the other 7 teams interview and decide on coaches.

Clearly you don't understand the depth and dedication Chili put into this. He KNOWS. THINGS.
