Yup been mentioning this all of last week. moving on from pierce would've been to join a lottery type situation for HC(pissing the players off in the process.) 

Also worth mentioning(again) that choosing dodds didn't guarantee harbaugh like everyone thought(who will probably be the de facto GM anyway). 

Also weird that Dodds stays with the Colts again.

It's really interesting, that the top candidates before the hiring cycle started all stay at their respective teams:

Ben Johnson stays in Detroit.
Frank Smith stays in Miami.
Bobby Slowik stays in Houston.

So basically we only missed on Harbaugh right now.
(That narrative probably change when one of the other hired HCs pan out)

It's really going to be interesting next coaching cycle. Those three and some vets currently don't have HC jobs in Bill B. Vrabel and Pete...So if Texans, Miami and Lions all make the playoffs again I could see a team like the Steelers let Tomlin go to get their next coach. I love Tomlin but his OC hires make me go HUH?!? 

I think AP will be fine but that's a LOT of coaches that could heat the seat unless it's a winning season. Which I think we will have as long as he hits on the OC...I'ed add QB too but if we get Klint then I could see Jimmy staying being we have to pay him either way. Then a trade with Bears for their #9 to get a rookie QB should only take a 3rd.

Even their slogan is a diss to the Raiders, “Faithful to the Bay” . That snug think we are better than you attitude 

I personally know people that jumped ship when the Raiders moved to the Niners. I don’t want them celebrating to be honest make em wait longer lol

Seahawks hire Mike Macdonald. That’s 4 vacancies filled by defensive HCs. Another myth broken that the nfl wants offensive HCs

Johnson, Slowik, and Texans defensive coach stayed, so that was a huge factor.

WTF is up with Oakland. Warriors moved out of town, Raiders to Vegas and now A's too...Wasn't long ago Oakland was catching up to SF as the place to be and now both are in decline. 

Lol what? Oakland has been a dump since the late 80’s. So much crime, and poverty everywhere.

-Andy Reid admits that Raiders loss on Christmas Day was a wake up call to the entire team. Admits how inspired the Raiders played help them refocus

 

There goes the notion on here that they didn’t care about the game.

Yeah....I mean it has the potential, but so did Ryan Leaf lol. 

The city government has seemingly chosen to go to war with their sports franchises instead of, you know, governing. 

It isn't like the area doesn't draw in enough dough for them to support professional sports. It does. It's just easier to complain about stadium costs than crack addicts without looking cold and heartless.

When I started my last job the opportunity arose to go back to Stanislaus County- I'd been in Detroit. 

I wanted to soooo bad for the reasons you gave. 

I passed hard for the reasons you gave, too.
