Replace Dumb with Dumber

From Today's NY Post:

"According to a source in New Orleans, Jim Haslett, whom the Saints fired as their head coach Monday, has told people the Jets are among four teams that already have contacted him."

I seem to remember a team coached by Haslett beat a team coached by Edwards this year

This is not an endorsement of Haslett disclaimer

But Edwards gave a wonderful speech and did some fine interviews. And to some, that matters more than the game.

we need a fiery guy..Bring in Rivera, or promote Donnie Henderson as long as he keeps Dinger and lets Dinger run the offense..

only the Jets!

Henderson's already been given permission to talk to NO to replace Haslett. He's interviewing there either later this week or next.

well we could offer him the job first..

I'm sure he'd rather take the Jets HCjob over the saints..

If we did that, I think it would be more of a knee-jerk reaction at this point. Don't misunderstand, I like Donny Defense. Just don't know if he has the goods to be a successful HC at this time.

For example: In '04 he was a fiery leader who demanded the best from his players. In '05 his demeanor changed as he toned it down and didn't seem to make his players accountable.

Seems to me he's still trying to find his way as as a DC. I don't think he's a qualified HC. Yet...

Haslett is a better football coach then Herm Edwards.

I don't agree. I think they are both mediocre coaches. Either can be successful when provided with an easy schedule and some above average talent. Neither will take you to the promise land when matched against superior coaches with the same amount of talent. I'd much rather take a shot with Dinger before making a lateral move to Haslett...

And there you go.

Goodie. So keep Herm out of the fear of worse. That's a sure ticket to the superbowl.

Which would you have considered a "sure-thing" upgrade to replace Herm in 2006:

- pre-Raiders Jon Gruden

- pre-Patriots Bill Bellichick

- pre-Saints Dick Vermeil

- pre-Panthers John Fox

- pre-Titans Jeff Fisher

etc

2nd year after taking over a 4-12 Giants team that (for a rookie Eli & his monster contract) gave up two first rounders & more, the surly, washed-up, has-been Coughlin has won more games than Herm ever did.
