Wouldnt be surprised if his resume says "willing to accept free food and lodging as well as 12 pack of bud lite to satisfy your organizations requirement to interview a minority

 

Signed, Kenan thompson"

This just further lends credence to the idea that Ron’s loyalty to his friends did him in.  Fewell’s incompetence was masked as an assistant but now we see it for what it is.  Can you imagine if Washington was running the team?

Or Rodgers, my God, he has screwed up everything he’sever been given. 
im not sure there is one coach on this team anyone else would want

He’s actually had #1 passing defenses when he’s had not an actual dumpster fire of a defense to work with

No he didn't

Your boy Ron hired him, then got his ass fired for incompetence. Otherwise Fewell wouldn't even be here in this position.

2017 jags DB coach. Fewell is a pretty good db coach. People were thrilled with his hire here. He’s just not a HC.

John Fox: a punt is a good play.

Perry Fewell:  On which down?

You're pointing to a db squad that includes Ramsey as your only justification? I guess. At least he didn't screw it up. It would be better if he had been able to duplicate that in one of his other 31 years coaching.  I also suspect the #2 pass rush had as much to do with the result as the DBs.

Josh Klein believes the Fewell interview isn't so much about the Rooney Rule as it is just giving a courtesy to a nice guy who's been put in a sh-tty situation.

The team hasn't responded to Fewell.  They have actually looked worse.  Most serious candidates would mull whether this HC job would be worth the headache.  Fewell sees a sinking ship and wants to assume the helm just to say he was the captain.

Honestly, it's kinda sad that we're at Week 17 and how we handle punting is a valid discussion topic.

Offense sucks, defense sucks, but we can fix special teams!

Can we?

If we can, it's the lone bright spot Fewell can point to in his interview.  'Hey, I corrected the special teams problems.'  Other than that, I can't see where he has a leg to stand on in his interview.  Granted he got handed a sh-tty situation, but he yielded net zero improvement in a quarter season unless the Saints lay an egg tomorrow.
