I mean, that's just something I don't know if that... I wish I had the time to look it up if that's ever happened before or since, where an offensive coordinator gets fired mid-season and that same team goes on and wins the Super Bowl.

You know, and then when you...

have somebody like Lamar Jackson that's going to have to develop a little bit at a time and just kind of like easing him into the NFL with, you know, Marty Morningwig, Greg Roman, who's going to work around the run game and kind of attack that way and then move on to Monken.

I think that...

The way that I was impressed with Brian Dable's ability to scheme an offense around a quarterback, I'm just as impressed with John Harbaugh's ability to build a staff around his players.

Yeah, I mean, that's actually one of those business phrases or whatever is it's less so about hiring the right person and it's knowing when to fire from the wrong person that contributes to success most often.

Because a lot of times hiring is just sort of luck, right?

Like, I mean, even John Harbaugh,

as a head coaching candidate, someone who's a special teams coordinator was somewhat unheard of transitioning to the head coach spot.

Andy Reid, like you said, jumping up from QB coach into head coach.

These things are just sort of, you never know until you give somebody a shot sort of situations.

And it's a lot of just feeling people out and knowing what they have deep down inside and not necessarily what their resume is.

Their ability to learn, their passion and fire to continue learning and for the job itself.

So, yeah, an incredible hit rate.

And if you're going to be the CEO type head coach, it's going to be the it.

There's like only two pillars at that point, you know, of what it takes to be a head coach is your ability to lead and your ability to build a staff.

I mean, it's going to be like 90 percent of your job right there.

And then the other 10 percent is just going to be your game time decision making, which I don't think that he has any sort of bad reputation for, you know, in-game decision making.

When you consider an 18-year stretch of history.

Yeah, absolutely.
