Look at Mccown about to get the Texans gig. Has he ever coached anything before? Id take Brees in a heartbeat.

Predicting the next play as an announcer and/or being good at reading defenses is a heck of a lot different than managing more than a hundred people, many of them millionaires, while creating all the processes and plans needed to successfully lead/navigate the entertainment/performance side of a multibillion dollar sports franchise.I dont think that is too crazy. I think Peyton Manning could walk in and be a head coach immediately. I think Tony Romo knows the game better than most coaches. He knows it more than Mike Mccarthy, which was on display during the Playoff game. Aaron Glenn, Matt Campbell, Demeco Ryans, Jerod Meyo have moved up the ranks quickly. Look at all the young coaches, Klingsbury, Brandon Staley, Shanahan, Mcvay, and Kevin O Connell is getting looked at right now. The game is not like it was 10 years ago. Some of the motion through RPO's looks like Canadian football. The college game is now in the NFL. College should look to moving the hash marks so the game translates to the NFL.
I understand what you are saying. I am not saying your wrong. I dont think you are giving Romo the credit he deserves. This has been said by players over twitter. The man is intelligent, he is a scratch golfer, and I was only using him as an example. In reference to Brees, listen to the podcast with Cam Jordan, and Mark Ingram have him as a guest. I am not saying it will happen, he would be successful. I dont think it is so farfetched. he is a leader of men. I also look at references in the NBA as well. There has been success with former players going into Head Coaching. I am just looking at many variables when i say it is not as crazy as it sounds. He had the best Offensive mind in the game in his ear for 16 years. that is better than being a quality controls coach.Predicting the next play as an announcer and/or being good at reading defenses is a heck of a lot different than managing more than a hundred people, many of them millionaires, while creating all the processes and plans needed to successfully lead/navigate the entertainment/performance side of a multibillion dollar sports franchise.
I like the idea. Problem goes beyond the Saints. Former QBs have a reputation for being poor coaches in the NFL. This has been the case since the 70s. I am not sure why.About drew brees as our coach. Is that totally out of the question. Just asking.
