I wanted Cowher. I also liked Martyball. I felt if we were going to go the co-ordinator route, it would be Frazier.
While Fewell was good and is having a great year, if we had promoted him, everyone would've been upset. We all wanted to bring someone in from the outside, move away from the Jauron-era. Fewell was part of that era. I liked him and his defense (I'm a fan of the Cover2), but we needed a change, not another promotion from within.
Anybody who says we should've kept Fewell and that they wanted him as HC is lying.
We can be happy for him and wish him well, but let's not kid ourselves, we all wanted to move as far away from the Jauron stench as possible.
