Is this just hype?

If Seahawks defensive coordinator Kris Richard gets a head-coaching job, Bradley's old job in Seattle is among those that could be open.

Is Richard more highly regarded in the League than in his own fan base?

Richard exit and Bradly return would be a dream scenario for me. Chance for Bradly to be the heir apparent? Lots of coaches have done better the 2nd time around.

Richard will get a head coaching job on his charisma alone

I do love Richard every time I hear him talk. He owns mistakes instead of blaming execution even when it would be fair for him to blame execution and is the polar opposite of Bevell in that regard who never owns his mistakes. That said, I'm still not sure how he's doing. Bradley killed me with mistake at the end of the Atlanta playoff game but like Osprey said, could do well with another chance.

Bradley and bring back Norton. No way we play,that uninspired with Norton on the sideline. No way.

I'd willing to bet the fans wouldn't have loved Bradley or Quinn in they were the D coordinator this year too. Both those guys had this group of players in there prime and they were all healthy too. Hard expect anywhere near the same product.

FWIW I think Bevell and Richard are both much more we’ll regarded around the league than they are among the Hawks’ fanbase.

I don’t think Bevell will ever get a HC opportunity but I can definitely see him OCing again.

This time of year, there are always speculative articles/tweets on coaching changes. :229031_shrug:

Yes, I hope every year for him to get a chance to fail upwards.

FWIW I hold both Bevell and Richard in much higher regard than the more vocal of their detractors.

But then again, I can follow along with the week to week adjustments of player usage and game plans that reflect player health and opponent strengths and weaknesses. The use of words like sucks, fire, cut and similar expressions are identifying tell tell acknowledgements by those who fall short of appreciating or acknowledging the impact of player health and competitive variability. IMHO ...... every fan base has it's lame detractors.

I have to disagree. Quinn's play calling was totally different. I don't see much difference between Bradley and Richard's execution.

Just say NO to Gus and his softzone defenses.
