it says his title is Asst HC/WR's. Are we gonna create a Super Asst HC title?
He certainly sounds like a solid upgrade, so I would be happy.

Funny, I remember you mentioning in another thread that Antonio Bryant could be one of our FA targets this offseason and what do you know....this guy used to coach him. How ironic ;)

This is how a Jim Haslett-run defense (as DC) have fared:

1996 New Orleans #20
1997 Pittsburgh #11
1998 Pittsburgh #7
1999 Pittsburgh #12

Given how some good DCs have not done such a good job as HCs (i.e. Grilliams, Spags) this may be a better way to determine how well Haslett can be as a DC.

Haslett was HC in both NO and St. Louis. Somebody help me out, where did he ever serve strictly on the defensive side of the ball, and who was his DC in NO?
The numbers reflecting his order of finish has such a wide disparity from year to year one has to wonder what brought about such up & down seasons in the defensive rankings.

Haslett was DC with the St. Louis for 2006, 2007, and 2008. During the 2008 season, he became the interim HC.

Aaron Brooks and Rick Venturi both played a vital role in his won-loss record in NO when he was HC there.

Actually the years that I posted there (1996-1999) were the years when Haslett was defensive coordinator (and the rankings his defense got each of those years).

I thought he was DC in NO in 1996 and was DC in Pittsburgh from 1997-99

We need to hire a DC that plays racketball so Dan won't miss Vinny!

I get what you're saying if you're combining the three years together, one in NO & two in Pitts. My bad, I understand what you mean.

Jerry Gray is interviewing today for the DC job:
