DA will never get another HC job. So it doesnt look good for a failed DC to HC to get many chances. I think for Staley to get another chance, then he;d have to have a top 5 d for at least a few years
Two is generally the limit in the NFL for the number of times a HC can fail and not get another job. Staley would probably have to have a top 5 defense for 3 to 5 years to get another HC job, but Parker would probably have to have a top 5 defense for 3 to 5 years to get a HC job too. It's really hard for DCs to get HC jobs these days for all the reasons we talked about during our HC search.
