Guys like that are going to be loved by some and hated by others, but they often get a lot accomplished.
Irsay always seems to hire the nice guys, Pagano, Caldwell, Reich...I agree Dungy is a good coach and a nice guy, so 1 out of 4 turned out to be a good hire! I just think we need to try someone with a little more of an edge and someone that will toughen this team up a little...I don't want dirty play, but I would like to see more aggression and attitude! Just my opinion of course....

Dungy had an edge, he played DB for the Steelers. I was at Colts camp when he stopped practice after 2 players got into a scuffle. We could hear every word and he was not yelling. The tone was dead serious and fighting was not going to be tolerated, and he would cut anyone for fighting with a teammate. Cant do it in a game, cant do it at practice.
You can set standards and have success without being a dick. You back up your words with action.
