A lot changes when everything's on your plate and you go from, yeah, you're making these decisions in the booth to you're game planning week to week for these quarterbacks and all this stuff.

Like, I don't know.

I think that, like,

part of me feels that they need to bring in a coach that definitely has experience coaching in the NFL and coaching at the college level because they're coming in with this expectation that you need to go have deep postseason success.

And if Greg Olson comes in, and let's say by chance, which is very likely, they lose in the wildcard round.

Or worse, they don't make the playoffs.

His head is going to be on a spike instantly.

Like, almost instantly.

I don't know.

He's not like a complete outsider.

I don't know.

I feel like it would depend on the coordinators coming in and I also think that the pressure and the spotlight would be kind of disgusting in terms of how much that he needs to win right away and he's never coached before.

that feels kind of like too much.

I think that you need to at least bring in someone.

If you're going to bring in a young guy, he's like a clear defensive schemer that is going to have an edge in the league calling plays on offense or defense over the next two to three years as the game continues to change.

If you're not and you're going to bring in a CEO guy, you need to bring in someone that's going to bring in a defense coordinator that, again, gives you this edge and is going to maximize the talent on that side.

And I don't know.

I feel like it's part of the reason why when you first asked me, was this the right move to fire Sean McDermott?

I don't know because I don't know what the plan is.

If you're considering Greg Olson and there's other candidates that I don't feel like excite anyone, it is a situation where you're firing McDermott because you need to make a change, but how much evaluation was there to figure out who this next person is?
