You're simply furthering my point about how he's not getting a chance in the NFL. Asst. head coach is a bs title as the responsibilities (or lack thereof) vary greatly.  It's why I said he needs to go to college to add to his resume and land an opportunity to do the job.   

Perhaps some of it is how Duce interviews, but I have to be honest here. Duce could easily be a puppet just like Sirianni could be. They claim Sirianni is so articulate, but he time and time again acts immature and interviews like a moron. Even Duce could do that.

Nick might just be bad at public speaking. I've met people through work who are articulate, even intelligent, who completely flub it when they have to speak in front of a room of people.  I don't know anything about how he interviews, and I would state that interviews are just a formality. When a team wants you they hire you, as long as you're not a complete idiot. Then again, Jeff Fisher was an NFL HC twice so I could be wrong about that 😂

Duece was given a chance. He was Asst HC. 

I think the hope was that would help his resume during interviews, but it wasn't really something tangible where a prospective employer could grade his performance outside of coaching RBs. I think Duce could be a lot like Tomlin as a coach, but he probably needs another "real" position on his resume, not just a title. I don't know if he'd be a good NFL OC. Maybe he just needs to coach another position or maybe be a ST coordinator for a spell.

I think his best shot was getting the interim position at the Panthers but he left with Reich. I don't think anyone expected Pierce to get the Raiders job but he did an excellent job in that role and he stuck.

Dan Campbell was a TE coach but had the interim position at the Dolphins which probably helps his resume. Campbell doesn't call plays for the Lions and has only held TE coach or the Assistant HC position title attached with his other role.

Probably his interim job was the bigger factor in getting a HC job later. Assistant HC is like:

After I got out of the Army, I got a job managing a TCBY frozen yogurt store and there was a weaselly little guy with a mullet who had basically that exact title. He wore it as if he was CEO of TCBY lol.

Not the flashiest player in the world, but you would think after seeing the tackling by the Eagles this season, fans here would understand why the Broncos value him. He was a likable person and an underrated player and it's cool to see him recognized for his play.

I'm going for the 49ers unfortunately. At least Steve Young was my favorite QB at 1 time

Congratulations to Chip Kelly for deciding to demote himself as UCLA’s head coach to become Ohio States’s offensive coordinator. Know when to cut and run especially when you are failing at your  job.

It doesn't sound like he'll be missed.

I have no love for either team. One team whined because we beat them last year and the other team beat us. No desire to see either team win.

Kinda where I'm at. I have no desire to see either win, and I'm guaranteed to hate the outcome. I won't turn the TV on til around 6:15-6:20, and as soon as the 4th quarter clock hits all zeros, TV goes off and won't turn on again til the draft.
