I'm sure there's been new coaches that weren't coordinators. It probably doesn't happen too often anymore.Originally posted by jhedrickThats what I had remembered! Thanks for contributing that info. How about has there ever been another coach hired in the NFL that has never even been a coordinator???

I don't agree with Perkins while he was head coach of the Giants. He brought the Giants to their first playoff appearance in almost 20 years. He brought back some respectability to the Giants. George Young and Ray Perkins inherited a very bad team. If memory servers me. Perkins was a good QB/offensive coach. He was instrumental in the development of Simms.Originally posted by LSUMONSTERWhat About Ray Perkins( Not Sure You Guys Remember Him Or Not)??? In 8 Yrs He Was A Head Coach At N.y Giants And Tampa Bay, His Record Was 42-75 With Only 1 Playoff Won And 1 Loss In 1981. That Was His Best Year Finishing 9-7.
They fired Perkins and hired Parcells in 1983. Parcells almost didn't survive his first year as the Giant's coach. They went 3-13 under him. He made a huge mistake going with QB Scott Brunner over Simms.
Perkins did very poor at Tampa. But the Tampa team was probably the worst team in league history before, during and after he coached Tampa.

i think ray perkins actually was not bad....it was when the giants brought george young in that things turned i around.....i do not know if george brought him in..but he got the giants on the right track with the likes of carpenter and others.......he was better than manyOriginally posted by LSUMONSTERWhat About Ray Perkins( Not Sure You Guys Remember Him Or Not)???

I Would Nominate Sam Wyche On This List Too But Many Probably Will Disagree With Me Because He Took Cincy To Super Bowl Once But Lost To The S.f 49ers In 1998. His 12 Yrs Record Is 84-107 With Only 3 Winning Seasons. He Had Two 8-8 Seasons; The Rest Were All Losing Seasons.

frank...i do not think they fired ray....i think he was offered the alabama job...he was very happy in new york and he said that was the "only job" that would ever take him from the giants.....i read that again this week somewhere.....Originally posted by frankb03I don't agree with Perkins while he was head coach of the Giants.
