    NFL Coaching idea's changing?

    Monday, January 29, 2007, 09:47 PM EST [NFL Coaches]

    This has been the year of the "no previous experience please apply" shingles are beginning to hang on the doors of many of the NFL teams with head coaching vacancies. Five of the last hires for head coach have had no head coaching experience in the NFL or at any major college. Is this trend a good thing in the NFL? How long will it continue? Does anybody really care?

     

    First I do not care about the new coach's head coaching experience but will the fans of those teams if those teams struggle? As we all know if a team struggles the natives become restless and want change and want it now and the blogs get filled with the diatribes, rants and venom to fill any NFL stadium and the airwaves on all the sports networks then the print media begins to ever so eloquently blow on the pipe.

     

    I want to see quality coaches as head coaches. If they are young, old, middle aged, with two left feet I could care less as long s they have the ability and are able to accomplish some positive things and get the teams heading in the right direction. But we also know that these coaches' futures are determined by many things such as scouts, general mangers, players and owners and not all are equal as we all know. Look in Dallas, Washington, an Oakland and that tells us that part of the story. Some won't succeed no matter how good they really are.

     

    Does the youth movement help the NFL? I believe so in many ways. Younger coaches can relate to today's players better. But these young coaches still have to instill the fear into the players that they can be traded to Detroit if they screw around and we all know, sadly, the Detroit is where players go to suck. Thank you Matt. Job well done.

     

    I favor this youth movement and hope every fan, player, and owner gives these coaches the time, support and proper motivation to succeed. We the fans need this or we will keep recycling the same head coaches every few years as they will end up in another city, at another team that is looking for that spark just to find out what the last city already knew that they stunk. So I say lets get some more young head coaches that are eager to fill the void and change the coaching face of the NFL. Maybe the NFL itself will notice this and make some much needed changes in the NFL front offices.

     

    We can only hope.
