If Bucs fire Morris, who is out there ?

Pretty good article. I'd take Herm Edwards or Brian Billick. I know the article mentions, Billick wasn't able to develop a QB or consistent good offense in Baltimore, but if I was Dominik I'd hire either of the 2 HC candidates I mentioned and hire Packers QB coach Tom Clements as OC. Bring in JDR as DC and BAM! good coaching staff that can build a good team. We already have some of the right players in place.

Edwards didn't impress me much.

Billick is interesting, but that guy is REALLY arrogant.

I'd go for fresh blood, especially with a team that will still be plenty of millions under the cap next year too.

I want a coach with HC experience though.

JMO, but I would kind of prefer to have a current OC/DC given the youth of this team.

I just have doubts that any formerly successful coaching retread will bite on the Bucs job when they consider how bush league the ownership is.

I don't see how fans can accept having an unproven coach. But then I don't see how any vet coach would want the job.

I wouldn't mind seeing either Jeff Fisher get the job (he was also spotted at he team hotel in ATL) or Bengals DC Mike Zimmer.

Mike Zimmer isn't a bad option.

I think Fisher is by far the #1 candidate

I think it will happen too.

It's not acceptance by fans but rather just what is expected given the frugal AND cheap nature of the Glazers.
