RISKY hire. McKenzie opts not to hire a former Packer employee whom he is familiar and instead hires a 1 year wonder spazzy coordinator? Where have I seen this before? Oh yeah.... Josh McDaniels.

I AGREE, it is a RISKY hire. (not sure what you mean by spazzy coordinator, though)

Only 1 year coordinator experience, and no head coaching experience.

Remember how the Faiders lied to Shanahan??? How long did he last...

In 1988, Davis lured away Broncos' offensive coordinator Mike Shanahan to become his head coach. Even before then, in 1978, Davis hired Broncos' linebacker coach Myrel Moore to be co-defensive coordinator. However, both Shanahan and Moore, who felt Davis lied to them about their roles, eventually would return to the Broncos.
Allen should have looked before leaping.

Sample Tweet from Pro Bowl:

"If we win we get 50k for a week in Hawaii while the SB loser gets 44k for a week in Indy? lol"

Filed to ESPN: Tampa Bay plans to hire Rutgers coach Greg Schiano as the next Buccaneers head coach. Two sides trying to finalize contract.

I guess Tampa was dead set on hiring a college coach (in the aftermath of the Chip Kelley fallout)

Also from Schefter: Former Packers HC Mike Sherman is in Miami today to see if the two sides can work out a deal for him to become Dolphins OC.
