I fully expected Vrabel to be hired by now honestly, what went down is Nashville must of been big, he fucked himself.
It’s crazy… he apparently has only made 1 interview, Atlanta and they then hire Raheem Morris right after. While he is on the Atlanta interview Carolina hires Dave Canales, which cancels Vrabel interview with them he was supposed to head to after leaving Atlanta.
I still think he might end up in Seattle.
Sleepless…..
Good luck to Vrabel and hope he can get another chance at being a coach.
Why hasn't anyone hired Vrabel? Two openings left, I don't believe he has interviewed for either. Didn't the media say he'd instantly have another head coaching gig after being fired? He's not catching on anywhere as a DC, he was a lousy one in Houston.
Part of the BB thing has to be about control. He was the HC and the GM in NE. Gotta wonder if the GM for the team is interviewing with isn't at least partially worried if BB wouldn't eventually push him out.
The minorities never getting a shot argument just took an upper cut to the chin.
Maybe less about pushing them out, and more about his teams sucking recently and him being too stubborn to listen to the GM.

No it didn't. Lol
He's not technically from the Belichick tree and if you're a good well-respected coach, you'll get a job. No one would care about other's from your "tree". They care what YOU can do for their team.
Literally half of the head coaching hires so far this off-season are minority hires. And that excludes Dave Canales who is Mexican-American.
I understood what you were getting at. But comparing how things used to be with how things are now are not the same thing.
I’m gonna give you the opportunity to step back, think about what you really meant to say, and reword this post before pigeon bombing the heck out of it.
I literally just watched folks like Keyshawn Johnson 2 days ago bashing us for hiring Callahan while harping on the fact that guys like Eric Bellamy can't get an opportunity. This isn't an argument for how things used to be vs how things are now. The media to this day keep running this narrative that minorities continue getting passed over for HC jobs. Clearly that isn't case.

Someone could then make the argument the Rooney rule worked/ is working.
and that someone would be a racist
Good way to discredit any of those guys as worthy candidates.
Or, maybe, it was a way to give those guys an actual opportunity to advance in a traditionally Caucasian controlled business. Could be time to do away with it, but it was needed at one point.
