14 years between job offers is a very long time

14 years between job offers is a very long time and I think that there is a reason for the lack of interest in his services. We just don't know what that reason is but the people who do the hiring do...and they're not talking! lol
The only 2 remaining coaches who have been a HC more than 14 years ago are Mike Tomlin (17) and John Harbaugh (16), so that means 30 teams have passed on Morris at over those 14 years...multiple times.
Although I think Morris and his staff have done an amazing job with all the young kids this year I am just not sure it's enough to get him another HC gig but I guess we'll see.
I do think he deserves another chance but the owners know a lot more than we do and they have disagreed for 14 straight years. That is a looong time. The owners obviously feel some kind of way about Morris that keeps him from being a HC again.
Morris was getting a ton of props during that Super Bowl run and still only got one Rooney Rule job offer. Maybe having 3 hof'ers to work with kinda devalued what he accomplished that year. Were those HOF'ers the ones who made the defense or Morris who made them?
To me, what Morris has done THIS year has been far more impressive than what he did that SB year! Not sure how much the staff additions helped this year but Morris still called the games so he has to get the credit too.
I hope Morris does get another legit offer and gets another chance to be a HC. He seems like a very smart dude and well liked by his players too. I honestly think he deserves that chance. I just wish I knew why all those owners have disagreed for the last 14 years.

“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
