We have a bit of a CATCH-22 going on with our Head Coach search; when Philbin was finally removed from power (better late than never i guess) 4 weeks into the season it gave us what we thought was a bit of a jump on other teams who will ultimately searching for a new Head Coach this offseason..It's almost a dead cert that Pagano will be fired this season and with the Titans firing Ken Whisenhunt earlier today that's at least two more teams that'll be looking to fill HC vacancies, will more sure to follow...
For a couple of weeks after the Queasy Joe & Clueless Coyle mercy killing (putting 'em outta OUR misery!) we were treated to the possibility that maybe the next great young NFL HC was already on-staff, as Dan CAMBO got all of our juices flowing once again and once again reminded us all that football can & should be FUN!!! Well, we rode into Foxboro feeling like we haven't felt in a long time when we were dealt a primetime dose of reality and harshly awoken from our fantasy-like dream...Truth is DC had this team riding high on emotion for two weeks but that will only get you so far; whether a guy with absolutely no high level coaching experience other than a few years as a TE's coach, a guy with no idea how to build a staff or for that matter a guy who might not even have the influence to build a quality staff deserves first crack at the opening is up for debate...
This brings up the CATCH-22; where it looked like we might have the inside-track headstart on our HC search, the more success DC has will kind of make looking or thinking ahead more difficult, will we be fooled into not exhausting all outside possibilities and just handing him the job outright or will be fools and not even consider him no matter how he finishes...This should get interesting....
