Columbo and Quinn weren't here very well.
I guess you meant long, so whatever.
Richard has coached in Super Bowls.
As what? A position coach? Who cares?
Maranelli has coached in Super Bowls.
And as second fiddle.
I don't care. Each of them enjoyed what is pretty much an overrated status.
Marinelli rode off the coattails of the Dungy Bucs, failed big time trying to construct a DL in Detroit and came into Dallas like a remora on Old Man Kiffin's back. Then he kept riding this "guru" reputation.
He is, was or whatever, the most overrated coordinator we have had in team history. Period.
I cannot think of any other coordinator or positional coach who had as profound negative impact on our drafts and the direction of the franchise than he did.
It started with the "quick twitch" draft that blew things up and it continued with the Charlton and Trysten Hill debacles.
He should never, ever have had the kind of sway he got. Because frankly, were it not for high picks like Warren Sapp and Simeon Rice, he would have never been successful. He is a parasite that is just good enough to get low level talent to play above their heads. That still does not equate to winning football. Sorry.
Yeah O'Quinn had no experience.That's one coach out of a bunch of them. And Colombo was here with the help of Hudson Houck who also has a great resume. Inexperience they were not.
Honestly, Houck is a lot like Marinelli. Do you want me to list the players he liked and how it set us back?
