Since we are discussing the elephant in the room, it is truth time....
First, no it isn't fair at all to say black coaches have to go above and beyond. That doesn't hold water at all.
That's not to say there isn't an issue. There are several. Racism! Not one of them. That's just not reality. My favorite example is Tomlin. If Pittsburg fired him today he would have a job with a different team within an hour. That's just a fact.
Just as the fact Lovie Smith is being given a 3rd chance at being a HC.
Just as when the racist asshole Tony Dungy retired from the Colts teams were lining up to try and lure him back. They were even offering him the GM job if he wouldn't coach. He closed that door and did major damage toBblack coaches throughout the league by telling teams straight up that the woefully incompetent Leslie Frazier would be his HC and that he refused to hire any White coaches under any circumstances.
Same thing with Marvin Lewis. He shut the door on himself in the NFL and likely caused damage for other HC's. Jerryworld was reportedly hot and heavy for Lewis and leaning towards hiring him... Until he told them he and Clueless Hue Jackson were a package deal and if he takes the job Jackson would be the OC and Assistant Head Coach. The phone calls from other teams ended after that statement.
Brian Flores falls into the same grouping, unfortunately. The Saints and Texans were both heavily and legitimately interested in hiring him. Instead he let the Fritz Pollard Hate Group talk him into burning his career to bring a lawsuit against the NFL. Had he just been patient and told them to fuck off chances are he would be doing a presser today for the Saints or Texans as their new HC.
You want to fix it and want to see more representation in the coaching ranks? Tell Fritz Pollard and Tony Dungy both to fuck off and stop trying to bully people into hiring coaches based on race. Tell the media to stop trying to bully teams into purging every non-Black coach from the NFL.
Start holding people more accountable and stop race-baiting, simple as that.
