Wasn't someone looking at Fassel also? lol. Not that he's probably not good cause in hindsight he's probably better then Zorn. lol.
With the terrible front office we had, who knows.

I'll be interested in seeing if McCarthy can pull off a Super Bowl win seeing as how he's the lone offensive head coach left in the playoffs. Of course there were only 4 out of 12 offensive coaches to begin with in the playoffs.

Dave Wannstedt named Buffalo Bills assistant head coach - NFL News | FOX Sports on MSN (http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/dave-wannstedt-buffalo-bills-new-assistant-head-coach-012111)
Good for him. He's no Belichick but he has been relatively successful everywhere that he has gone, except maybe as HC of the Bears. I wish him well.

That has to be a death blow for Campbell as a starter. Jason never grasped the Saunders offense here, and he was thoroughly outplayed by Todd Collins, who knew the system well.
I wonder if Saunders will reach out to Todd Collins, since he knows the offense. Poor Jason lmfao!!! He'd lose his job to Collins AGAIN!!!

I thought this might be the perfect transition for JC to a backup role. He knows the playbook enough that he could step in, but they could easily bring in another guy to be the future. Then JC just stays on as the new Todd Collins and in 8 years he gets traded, plays four games at the end of a season leading his team to the playoffs. Oh the irony.
JC should be ahead of the game with Saunders coming in. His experience should give him a leg up on the competition.
I'm amazed at all the coach's getting fired and getting picked up quickly by other teams. Especially Co-ordinator jobs. Maybe I shouldn't be but I am.
I understand HC Fox getting another chance, one could argue he took his teams to the playoffs and SB's. All was quiet with Al Saunders but rumors are he's heading to the Raiders or so I thought.
I guess I'm just supprised at all the retreads getting bounced around. Maybe getting hired under the right circumstances and right personell will make them look good again.
it's called the coaching carousel for a reason, nothing out of the ordinary really

Hue Jackson preferred Bruce Gradkowski last year. It remains to be seen if Oakland re-signs him based on this fact...
