I'd be pretty shocked if Lovie got a head coaching gig somewhere right out of the gate. Fair or not, he would be seen as a tough sale. Lovie would be seen as a retread HC by any fanbase, and a boring vanilla retread at that. Lovie has had some of the worst offenses every year in the league in Chicago, and his teams failed to make the playoffs 5 out of his 6 years as a HC. The NFL is an offensive league, and teams want offensive minded head coaches to draw fans to the stadium. I thought his best opportunity was Buffalo, because they were reportedly looking at a possible defensive minded guy to turn around their defensive unit they invested a ton of resources into. Eventually they even went offense. All the other destinations are looking for an offensive guy.

Despite labeling myself a "realist", no one understands my pain or appreciates my special truth. Stupid world.
