all bad head coaches but good d coords.

I dont know that DA is the answer either, but he could take over right now and would our defense get worse??

Any coordinator who is worth his salt should be able to carry that into his head coaching job. You might not win if you can't build the whole team up, but you should have success on your side of the ball, if you're truly good at what you do. Romeo Crennel was only thought to be good in New England. Bill Belichick runs that group just like Payton runs our offense.

Crennel has not done much since he left New England. There are a lot of bad coaches who get hired because some organizations have a hard time identifying good coaches from the rest of the coaches who are just lucky enough to have superior talent. We've had assistants leave here and suck elsewhere because they never were the brains to begin with (Marronne, Lombardi, Kromer immediately come to mind).

As for your question, what does it matter whether we get worse if we aren't getting better? I don't want Ryan or Allen, period.

Not by much, still not sold on dennis allen as dc had better players with three probowlers that year and weaseled out 20th

He's good at fielding Brandon Browner. Wish he was bad at that.

Things have changed for the better................ I don't know.

Dom Capers, Norv Turner, Romeo Crennel, Charlie Weis, Josh McDaniels, Gary Kubiak, Wade Phillips all fine coordinators who were disappointments as head coaches...
