[QUOTE="BrokenArrow, post: 1027107, member: 12225"] I think the "friends" thing is blown out of portion by a few stirrers out there. I don't think they go to each other's kids' birthday parties. I don't think they spend their free time going on fishing trips together. The fact is, the NFL coaching circle is small and most of those guys know each other and if they're not friends, they're all at least friends of friends. If you look at the man's resume and history, he checks an awful lot of boxes. It would be stupid if MLF said, "You know what? You're exactly what I'm looking for, but man, we've known each other for over 10 years and we're both good friends with Bob (Saleh) so I'm going to have to pass because there are some fans that might not like that. Thanks for interviewing though!" I think if MLF was looking to make a "buddy hire" he would have hired Staley last week. That, or he would have simply kept Barry. The defense improved enough after the Carolina game that he could have certainly gone that route if he wanted to, but he didn't. [/QUOTE]
