Guest Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 I'm pretty sure that given the ages of the players they probably don't have as much of a problem respecting women in authority positions because they aren't ass backwards. Non-issue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanDuckFan Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 C'Mon people, pro football is a game rife with alpha male types. And it needs to be, and needs to stay that way. She could be a brilliant football mind, and it still wouldn't surprise me if she fails to garner respect from the locker room leaders. If she's all that, put her on the scouting staff, and have her evaluate from a distance. Sorry folks, but I am not a proponent of a "kinder and gentler" NFL.

headhunter Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Theres no way I'd listen to her or another woman about football. Just a marketing hire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ppl get too stuck on male vs female stuff. Not true. While some really good coaches never played in the NFL, they've all played football at some level...the vast majority (if not all) played at least at the college level. It's not nearly as much about male/female as it is about experience and qualifications. And it's hard to get meaningful experience in something if you've never really participated in that thing.

Face Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Just another example of a good thing taken way too far. Women were obviously treated horribly in the work place & not given near the opportunity that men were. It was a black eye on our country. But it's been fixed. We have women CEO's all over the place, we're probably going to have our 1st woman President. Well deserving women are in powerful, prominent positions all over the place. Sexism is a complete & utter non-starter, it no longer exists on a systemic level. That said, this isn't enough. It's NEVER enough. Why is it so difficult to accept that a certain, very few positions, are not suited for women? If I'm in a burning building, I don't want a woman trying to rescue me. If I'm in combat, I want a man next to me. This isn't sexist, it's fucking commonsense. This woman did zero to earn this job, she was Rex Ryan's secretary for crissakes. Players aren't going to respect her authority & I don't blame them. She's done nothing to earn it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titans279 Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Interesting that you say sexism is over and then say that there's no way she deserves this job and no way she can ever do it competently when you know nothing about her. Also, do you guys realize what a quality control coach even is? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TF_Titan Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 I'm not sure anyone knows what a quality control coach is. It's a pretty nebulous title. Historically it's a fancy word for what amounts to an intern. In this case I suspect it's a way to call someone a coach without them actually having to coach.

It's about experience more than gender. There's no WNBA equivalent in football (unless you want to count the lingerie league). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinx81 Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 This could be worse than the Mularkey hire. Not in terms of being able to do the job, but the fact that there are more qualified candidates yet someone else gets hired. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
