When I see people bitching incessantly about Tomlin, getting rid of him, placing 100% of each loss at his feet, wanting to run him out of town, throw trash on his lawn and tear his gutters down, I turn on the TV and see a Marc Trestman getting his *** handed to him. Left and right.
Trestman had the coaching pedigree down pat.
Spent a LOT of time as a coordinator and/or position coach
even went to the CFL for a few years and was a head coach there
hell, he even coached CFL great Anthony Cavillo for awhile.
suffice to say, the man put in some time on the coaching merry go round.
yet here he is getting his teeth kicked in on every snap.
while I'm not exactly a fan of Coach Cool Shades, I'd hate for us to fire him and wind up with some shitbag like Trestman (who has an enormous amount of knowledge of the game, obviously)
and while we can throw out names of who WE would like to see as a Tomlin replacement, remember, some of us actually liked the Tomlin hiring...and the Rooneys obviously liked him well enough to let him **** this **** up. Who's to say we don't just wind up with some shitbag like ... Trestman, pedigree and all?
and, NO, I'm absolutely NOT saying we should just keep Tomlin just because we could do worse.
