Sounds like they were looking for a reason to can him in order to hire a HC who can help Mariota develop.
Solomon Grundy Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 26 minutes ago, Mr. WEO said: It wasn't Hue and they never went 1-31. The 49ers have had 3 HCs in 3 years. And 3 OC's. Hue is the constant. He is constantly bad. Hue wasn't so bad in Cincy. Was able to get a HC job from his time there. Pretty good in Oakland too. Remember Weo, Belichick was HORRIBLE until he met Tom Brady!!

It was the kiss of death.
eball Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 So Meathead has now essentially quit TWO head coaching jobs? Geez.

2003Contenders Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Apparently, MM was offended that some school teacher saw his kid's last name and asked if he was related to the "soon-to-be ex-coach of the Tennessee Titans". Oh, wait...

There are a lot of things at play I'm sure but the point is he wasn't doing anything to fix it, and the assumption would be because he didn't know how to fix it. 2 hours ago, the skycap said: Hue wasn't so bad in Cincy.

Hue Jackson should have been in contention for coach of the year when he got a dreadful Raider team to 8-8...how easy it is to forget
chris heff Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Seems it was a mutual parting of the ways.
H2o Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 I think the Titans make a heavy push for McDaniels now if they still have an opportunity.

Remember Weo, Belichick was HORRIBLE until he met Tom Brady!! This is often repeated, as false as it is. BB took a 3-13 Browns team and brought them to 11-5 and the Div playoff game in 4 seasons with a combo of Kosar (on life support), Mike Tomcsak, and Vinnie Testaverde. Hue took a 3-13 Browns team and nearly ran the table in losses, an unprecedented 1-31--screwing up the QB position at every opportunity along the way. Jackson took an 8-8 OAK team and brought them to 8-8, with Carson Palmer (who became a much better QB again after he wasn't with Jackson). In Cincy, before he showed up, Dalton threw for 4200+. In Hue's 2 seasons as OC, Dalton didn't break 3400. The year after Hue left, Dalton was back over 4200. BeforeHue, the Bengals Offense wass ranked 10 in total yards. It fell to 15th with Hue. Back up to 13th the year after he left. Hue and BB's pasts and presents could not be more dissimilar.

Mike Mularkey's stubbornness, failure to scheme around Marcus Mariota were his demise Cameron WolfeESPN Staff Writer http://www.espn.com/blog/tennessee-titans/post/_/id/25226/mike-mularkeys-stubbornness-failure-to-scheme-around-marcus-mariota-was-his-demise Edited January 15, 2018 by OldTimeAFLGuy
