Like you said before, the guys that have head coaching experience are always going to have more negatives against them because for everybody else that has none of that, it's just a question mark for us.

For this, there's palpable, tangible things that we can look and point at and be like, this is definitely wrong.

And for me, if you're going to be that guy, you have to... I don't want a guy working with Joe Shane that isn't like...

sure of what he's doing and making good hires if you're coming in as a coordinator.

And I don't get the sense with Vance Joseph that he's going to be that guy and kind of lead Joe Shane in the direction that the team needs to go in and that he needs to go in to be successful.

So I'm very lukewarm on Vance Joseph, but that says nothing of the actual defense that he runs.

Yeah, I mean, the Tampa thing is a really long time ago.

So I hear you there.

No, definitely.

With the Jimmy Lake hire as defensive coordinator in 2024, definitely feels like a buddy hire.

He also brings in Zach Robinson, who also just followed him over from the Rams as offensive coordinator.

I think also, again, I know head coach, GM, these things are not necessarily the same, but...

You have to also wonder.

And again, this is this is just something, you know, if you're interviewing a guy, I'm definitely asking the question about is about the entire drafting Michael Penix after bringing in Kirk Cousins thing.

It's the kind of thing that when it works, you're like, that was brilliant.

But when it predictably doesn't work, it does not look brilliant at all.

You've pissed off the guy that you spend the money on and you pissed away the draft capital on a guy that isn't good.

Yeah, I question the leadership ability for Raheem Morris personally.

I'm just not sure I see it.

It's also just weird, right, that...
