Watch Colin Cowherd give out grades for every head coaching hire of the month as the Washington Redskins, Dallas Cowboys, Carolina Panthers, New York Giants, and the Cleveland Browns all shook their coaching trees.
The 2019/2020 coaching carousel was one of the most interesting in recent memory with glamourous NFC East markets all saturating the news with their own respective rumors, and high-flying college coaches becoming readily available because of the copy-catting around Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury's memorable entrance into the league last off-season.
Washington’s hire of Ron Rivera was regarded as the safest and most widely respected hire.
Dallas’ hiring of Mike McCarthy was probably considered the most conservative and most controversial consider Jason Garrett’s exit coupled with McCarthy’s awkward breakup with Green Bay.
Carolina’s hiring of Matt Rhule from Baylor was certainly heralded as the most bold, as the only college coach who made the jump this year surprisingly outpacing Oklahoma’s Lincoln Riley, and former Ohio State coach Urban Meyer.
New York’s hiring of Joe Judge was the most unexpected given Judge’s anonymity with the Patriots, and his non-offensive or defensive coordinator role.
Cleveland’s hiring of Kevin Stefanski was the least contentious and least derided considering anything seemed like a better option than former coach Freddie Kitchens at that point.
