Chapter 1: What criteria are used to rank NFL head coach hires?
if you had to rank the hirings thus far, Oh, you want grades? I want, I want you to give me, I want some grades from you.
I love grades.
All right. So, uh, here we go.
Hold on.
All right, okay. All right, so I'll write it down, make sure we have a record of this, all right? Okay. Throw them at me. You're going to give grades too? People want your grades more than they want my grades.
So let's just list the teams first, okay? All right, we'll list the teams. And then we'll go best hiring to worst hiring. Ooh. Or you want to go worst hiring to best hiring.
Ranking. That's rankings, not grades.
Okay, ranking. What's a ranking with a grade? Well, there you go. So, you got the Raiders, Cardinals, Giants, Falcons, Dolphins, Titans, Ravens, Steelers, Bills, and Browns. And obviously, the Cardinals and the Raiders do not have their new coaches yet.

Chapter 2: Which teams are highlighted for their head coach hirings?
They're probably coaching in the Super Bowl. So... All right.
Dolphins, Falcons, Titans. Titans, Giants. Yeah, I know. But we don't have the Cardinals at the Raiders, so then we have the Falcons and the Giants. All right.
First of all, out of all of those ten jobs, the worst job is? The worst hire or the worst job? The worst job. That's the first one.
The Browns job is the worst job out of all of them. You think the Cardinals job is? It's the Browns, man. You can't say anything's worse than the Browns. I mean, the Cardinals at least have had a ā well, the Browns did go to the playoffs with Stefanski. I think the Browns are worse because I think Jimmy Haslam is nuts. For Cocoa Puffs? Yeah. Okay. All right, so you're all over the place.
Do you want grades? Do you want rankings? I want you to rank. I want you to rank. Give me the worst hire. Out of that group that have been hired, Munkin, Brady, McCarthy, Minter, Sala, Halfley, Stefanski, Harbaugh. I think we know what number one is. Oh, yeah. Well, it's John Harbaugh. Right. I would say number two is Stefanski. Okay.
For Atlanta, because I think both the Giants and the Atlanta Falcons can turn it around and be really good teams next year.
All right. One and two. Now, let's see. So we have three, four, five, six, seven. So number eight. If we're going to do it, let's do the worst one.
Yeah.
I'm going to say the worst one is Rob Sala, number eight. What? I mean, the guy was 20 games under 500 while he was here. Yeah. Was completely in over his head, told you he didn't know what he was doing, and was texting with Joe Beningo. also started construction on a house with nine children when he got here, and lived in a frickin' hotel. Okay.

Chapter 3: What makes the Browns job the worst hiring option?
Rob Sala's the worst of the hires. I actually think Rob Sala and Brian Dibble together are really a good hire for Tennessee. Okay.
Well... I don't. And by the way, these other guys, it's hard for me to... What I don't understand is Jeff Halfley and the Dolphins.
So that's your number eight? Yeah, I don't understand. Not that I have anything against Jeff Halfley, but his defense. What did they do in the playoffs? They wilted. Well, they also lost Micah Parsons, right? Yeah, but then they wilted. A good coach like Rob Sala kept his defense in every game. Well, until they got their asses whipped in the playoffs.
Yeah, because they lost eight guys to injury, not one.
All right, so your number eight is Jeff Halfley with the Dolphins. All right, so we got one and two we agree with, eight we disagree with. So do you want to go next best or next worst? So Browns, Bills, Steelers, Ravens.
I'm going to say that Todd Munkin is the second worst.
Second worst? Okay.
Just because he came out of nowhere. Again, no disrespect to him and the way the Browns fans are reacting to this and the slingshot reaction from Jim Schwartz. I mean, it's a very Browns-like situation.
That's part of that discussion. Now, I'm not saying that Todd Munkin as a head coach is a terrible thing, but the fact that it went down the way it did with Jim Schwartz, that's why the hire is questionable. So I'm going to agree with you on that. I'm going to say that number seven is the Browns. All right, so now we have three, four, five, and six we've got to get to.

Chapter 4: Who are the top ranked NFL head coach hires according to the hosts?
Oh, no, you do.
You got the Dolphins.
I got the Dolphins. All right, so you need a six now. So we both have Giants one, both have Falcons two. We both have Browns seven. And I've got the Titans eight with Sala. You got Halfley eight with the Dolphins.
Okay, so now... Let's see. So it's either Jesse Mentor, right? Yeah. Mike McCarthy. I'm going to go Mike McCarthy. As number what? Six. I thought you liked Big Mike. I do like Big Mike, but it feels flat to me. Pittsburgh. You know, it just feels flat to me. Like John Harbaugh feels like energy's coming to New York at the right time.
It just feels like now all of a sudden that, you know, that the winds of championship, you know, when they're behind a team. And Mike McDonald had created that out in Seattle. I mean, that's how I feel about Harbaugh and the Giants. I feel like it's such a perfect fit. It's so great. And it's exactly what the Giants needed.
The reaction of fans tells me a lot about the overarching decision by the owner. And like you said yesterday, you don't think that Pittsburgh fans are happy. No, they hate it. Right, and I don't know what their quarterback situation is going to be right now. So I think that they probably wanted a Chris Shula or a Clint Kubiak or a Clay Kubiak or a Michael LaFleur.
They wanted somebody like that, I would think, in Pittsburgh.
All right, so I got my list here. I finished it. Okay.

Chapter 5: What factors contribute to the ranking of Rob Sala's hiring?
I got from top to bottom, Giants 1, Falcons 2, Ravens 3 because ā Yes, Jesse Minner, he was there, and he's a hell of a coach, and he's coming from L.A.
where they were the number one defense.
Yeah, I don't know a ton about him, but he was highly coveted, and he had been in that place before, and the owner knows him and all of that. Four, I got Joe Brady with the Bills. Five, I've got Mike McCarthy with the Steelers. Six, I've got Jeff Halfley with the Dolphins. Seven, I've got Todd Munkin with the Browns. And eight, I've got Rob Sala with the Titans.
So you need a four, you need a three.
Three. And a five. So I'm going to go Sala as three.
Okay.
Minter as four. Minter as four.
Okay.
And then, obviously, who's the last one?
