Playing Owner - 3 HC Hiring Rules

[HB Chargers]

After the firings, I was thinking of the self-imposed "rules" I would prioritize when making a head coaching hire if I were the owner (or GM). These are my top 3. What say you all?

1. Head coach who won't be calling plays (on either side of the ball). I am personally drawn to culture/paradigm builders like John Harbaugh, Dan Campbell, etc. and there have been so many failed coordinator hires when they called plays with comparatively fewer successes.
-The exception would be for someone who has already done it and proven adept (Kyle Shanahan, Andy Reid)
2. Collaborative vs. "My system" types. I love the stories out of KC where Reid gets input from the players on plays and even takes their play design suggestions.
3. Motivator vs. Teacher. You can hire teachers at the coordinator position coach levels. I'd rather someone spend time functioning as CEO rather than getting way in the weeds on the individual teaching.

Would agree with all three. Most strongly with # 3.

1. A winner
2. Wants to win
3. Has won before

Yup, exactly but I am not convinced that Spanos is willing to pay for an experience head coach that has won before

1. Someone with extensive NFL Coaching experience. At least 10 years in the NFL. They don't have to have HC experience, but they should at least have a few years as a coordinator.
(This is so they have experience and familiarity with a number of coaches to build a staff with)

2. A vision for Justin Herbert. Anyone who's coming in needs to be able to capitalize on what is going to be the Prime years of his career.
Not "we're going to play the 49ers offense" or we're going to run the air raid... but a vision of how to maximize this young man. Whatever the system that's implemented, he needs to be the focal point.

3. A CEO. Someone who can handle a staff. Make hirings and firings that work. I don't want a cheerleader on the sideline, players get sick of that. I want someone who can be smart and analytical and ruthless.
-A Mike Holmgren type, so to speak. (or Andy Reid, who came from Holmgren's staff)

1. Beta-male
2. Affordable
3. Elite vocabulary

I like the first two, but number three bothers me a bit.

How do people learn unless they are motivated to learn? You have to be able to both teach and motivate to get people to learn.

Just my thoughts as a retired Navy Instructor.
