This seems to highlight the issue with NFL coaching selections. It seems too often image and media perception can matter more than results, or at least reasonable results. He deserves a chance to retain the role based on performance (though of course there's the question of his strategy going forward), but it's very likely he'll be gone as they pursue Harbaugh etc.

Similar applies to Culley at the Texans; he's had to cope with a ridiculous situation with Watson et al, and he's still produced a relatively competitive team and there are a lot of good things being said about Mills. Yet his role is already under scrutiny after just one season. Yet, I can't see any similar critique of Saleh despite the same record AND a #2 pick at QB.

Who'd want to be an NFL head coach? (OK the potential fame and $M are attractive...)
