I'm not sold on Sitake being HC material, and I'm not sure

Sitaki has been coaching the LB's at Utah since 2005...

The numbers sure suggest he knows what he is doing at DC and LB.

Mayor of Cougartown

Cleveland also tanked hard. Bronco may end up with that this year

He wasn't my first choice, but in retrospect, I think he was the right choice.

I actually agree with you. I just think its time to move on.
