Re: Around the NFL Week 13

So ... if Reid were actually fired ... who here would want to dump the Shanny's and hire Reid? Anyone? Anyone?

12 years in Philly and how many SB's has he won? 000000000000

Stick with Shanahan.

No coach has ever won the Super Bowl with two teams so in terms when it comes to who should be coach of the Redskins ironically Reid would be the better choice. However no way at this point would I swap Reid for Shanny. I am very interested though in seeing him go somewhere like San Diego and finally work with a real QB. Not overachievers.

If I were SD I would put in the contract that Reid must have an assistant whose sole job is to control the clock. Come to think of it, Shanny should get one too!

We hear this all the time.

But didn't Gruden do it? Raiders/buccaneers? Who else? Tuna comes to mind but I think he just got them close.

This topic came up on another site and I think Gruden was the most recent but long before him and the so called NFL when both NFC and AFC were seperate entities there were a few coaches who did it also. Obviously not to the SB but to their championship games at the time.

He's talking about winning the SB, not just making it and then flaming out(i.e Holmgren).

But the Raidahs didn't even make it to the Super Bowl with Gruden. The ol' tuck rule did him in. Then Oakland trades Gruden to Tampa. The two teams meet in the Super Bowl. Oakland, at the time, was still using Gruden's playbook. Hence, Gruden knew every play coming his way and used that to beat the Raiders.

Your right....

Through Super Bowl XLIV, as far as head coaches are concerned, no head coach has won Super Bowls with different teams. Five head coaches have coached two different teams into the Super Bowl but neither won with two different teams.

1) Don Shula was the head coach the Baltimore Colts that lost Super Bowl III and of the Miami Dolphins that lost Super Bowl VI and won Super Bowls VII and VIII.

2) Bill Parcells was the head coach of the New York Giants that won Super Bowls XXI and XXV and the New England Patriots that lost Super Bowl XXXI.

3) Mike Holmgren was the head coach of the Green Bay Packers that won Super Bowl XXXI and the Seattle Seahawks that lost Super Bowl XL.

4) Dan Reeves was the head coach of the Denver Broncos that lost Super Bowls XXI, XXII, and XXIV and the Atlanta Falcons that lost Super Bowl XXXIII.

5) Dick Vermeil was the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles that lost Super Bowl XV and the St. Louis Rams that won Super Bowl XXXIV. [quote]


But honestly I'd take any one of them because they have been there and know what it takes to get there vs. someone who has never been. Atleast these guys give you a chance. Which is why I'm happy with what we have...MS. Gruden would be another good choice. Holmgren will get the Browns turned around he just need maybe 1 or 2 more years. They were almost in the same spot we were. Terrible drafts, bad management, bad coaching.

*Raises hand sheepishly*

I doubt that is actually the best solution here though. Andy Reid's staff in Philly is doing him no favors. I don't think I want those guys here. I feel like that would be a lateral move to Shanny's staff. The best solution is probably a fresh start with a much younger coaching staff.

Like for example, I don't think Marty Morningweg is a particularly exciting coach-in-waiting offensive coordinator type.

I think Reid would turn it around here, but it would be kind of like Gibbs. If the front office is still based within the coaching staff, we'll be nowhere in 2015.
