[QUOTE="Bruce, post: 40345, member: 196"] Other than enhancing the chance of #4 coming back, what in mooch's past makes him such an attractive prospect??? He lost control in San Francisico (granted it was T.O.) and in Detroit. He is reputed to be soft and a players coach -- what leads any of you to think that is what T.T. is interested in? Frankly, if the Packers fired Sherman a better coach with a better record to hire someone like Steve Mariucci what would the rational be? Mariucci compiled a 15-28 as the Head Coach of the Detroit Lions. The decision to fire him came after a 27-7 loss on national television at [b]home[/b] on Thanksgiving Day to the Atlanta Falcons. -- he had clearly lost his team and they were quitting on him. You can say what you like, but Detroit drafts high every season and many were predicting good things for them coming into the 2005 season. Yes, Mariucci joined the Lions after spending six years as the head coach for San Francisco 49ers (1997-2002), where he compiled a 60-43 (.583) record, while his teams earned playoff berths four times (1997, 1998, 2001 and 2002). I can live with hiring Bates. I can live with hiring a new young guy to rebuild with. I can even live with hiring Steve Mariucci, whom I personally like, if it results in Brett coming back. But any honest evaluator would argue that it was a downgrade in coaching ability. [/QUOTE]
