Very wise. But there is no denying that you have a far better idea what you're getting with Cowher/Dungy than with some young guy.
I see Roy is ready to annoint McDaniels as the answer in Denver. I will wait longer than 5 games. Either way like I said, it's a huge roll of the dice. Notre Dame, Cleveland, Jets, and Cleveland again have all hired New England coordinators with sterling resumes and bombed. Denver may have gotten the real deal. And they may not have.
Either way there are so many proven coaches unemployed right now and so few teams willing to pay in the economic climate, that anyone who opens the wallet can have one (if not their pick). If Bob McNair is willing to spend Billions but draws the line and goes cheap on the single most important thing to an NFL franchise, we can only hope to get lucky.
