You have to be ****ing kidding me...

Why are all these ESPN sources saying that our new coach will probably "come from within" - seriously, this is something that would make me not want to renew my season tickets for the first time since I was about 4 years old. :rolleyes2
 
Dom Capers is not a bad coach. He had success with the Panthers, and never really got the right personnel for the Texans (and good draft picks).
 
Dom Capers as HC with Randy Mueller as GM and a good OC sounds like a fine combination to me. If we could get Mike Martz as OC that would be awesome, but I don't really expect it to happen...

Its not possible. The only way Martz could leave detroit is to become a head coach. Unless he signed a 1 year deal with them...
 
Mularkey needs to get fired and I wouldn't mind seeing Capers as head coach.
 
I think it's all BS...Wayne passed up on hiring Bates when his popularity with the franchise was at its highest to hire a big named coach. There's no reason to see him not doing that here. Wayne is a business man first, and he's going to throw money at the situation until it improves (Saban's salary, the coaching staff's salary, the bubble, the list goes on). I highly doubt he'll hire someone from within. I see him getting a good coach because he's a coach's dream.

I agree with this absolutely!!! But the Martz thing won't happen (IMO) because he has as big of an ego as Saban does. He wouldn't want to play second fiddle again.

Keep in mind that he had the success that he did in Carolina because the Panthers/Jaguars had the benefit of an expanded salary cap for the first 2 years that they were in the league. The NFL gave them some added benefits coming into the league to get them competitive quickly, and the Panthers went the route of spending large on veteran free agents to hit the ground running. It got them to the NFC Championship in 1996, but then the team fell badly and never recovered, ending with Capers losing his job because he couldn't maintain what they had when the franchise got started.

When he went to Houston, he did not have the benefit of an expanded cap. The league had learned their lesson and stopped giving teams such additional cushions when Cleveland came back into the league. So, Houston was stuck with the same salary cap that the rest of the league had to deal with, and Capers was never able to produce anything even remotely close to a truly competitive team there.

Capers might be a solid defensive coordinator, but as a head coach he stinks. Try a different tact like Ferentz or some other fresh face. Don't go for a retread.
 
Seriosly though you guys should keep Capers at D coordinator since he is doing so good.
 
Mularkey got a bum rap as a Bills coach. I'd bet he'd be much better as the Dolphins Head Coach.

Really.

Seriously.

I'm not kidding.
