Former Head Coaches On The Staff - Who is Next?

[Stoney]

With the Rooneys' recent habit of hiring former HCs for Tomlin's staff (guessing they're hoping he'll learn something about football), do you think they'll keep up the trend if LeBeau retires after the season? What if the Giants fire Coughlin and the Jets fire Ryan? Is it possible one of those guys are brought in? Maybe we can swipe the Jets current DC and get all Ryan's knowledge but without the clown show?

Who are some of the younger coaches that might be considered?

I know Lebeau's defense still shows flashes of greatness, even with the deficit of talent, but the guy can't coach forever.


(How's that for looking past tonight's game?)

Keith Bulter will be the next DC. I believe We are already paying him DC money

Yep - Keith Butler has been pre-annointed for DC. I just hope he has a better plan of covering mobile QB's...

Steelers are in a spot with him. If they wanted to interview other candidates, it doesn't reflect well on how they run their business. If they hand him the job, maybe they don't get the best candidate.

How about a former head coach to be our head coach, that would be nice.
