ESPN said it last year. They were talking about him meeting with his daughter prior to the game and going to dinner w. her.
I remember random crap like that for some odd reason.

I'd have him back, but would it mean switching back to his favored 3-4? Do we have the personnel for that anymore?

Bring him in for a minor role like McDaniels last year. I'd be all for it.
Head coaches are dropping like flies today.

I'd take him as a consultant this offseason, but there's not really an opening for him on next year's staff.

I don't think BB would just fire Patricia in favor of Romeo. I'd love for him to be the DB coach next season though. However, It seems like a huge demotion for him, he would probably would be looking for a DC gig somewhere.
Only chance I see it happening is if he's heading towards retiring and wants a less stressful position, especially after witnessing one of his players commit suicide.
People may laugh, but if Romeo doesn't come back, I wouldn't mind BB bringing in D*ck Jauron (stupid filter) as DB coach now that Cleveland has cleaned house. It's a job he's had before, and BB seemed to respect him back when he was Bills coach if I remember correctly. It would be a similar situation to when BB brought in Dom Capers - more of a stop-gap job until a DC position opened up for him.

Is that "DB Coach" or do you actually want him to coach the DBs? |

He couldn't possibly be worse than Josh Boyer and that other guy, so yes, as an actual DB coach.

Considering he won 2 Super Bowls with the Pats using the 4-3, I don't think he'd be averse to sticking with it were he to come in (which is IMO an extreme longshot)
edit: forgot the important part

He played a lot of 2-4-5 sets w. the Chiefs. Plus we did play 4-3 defense/ 43 under in 2000 and 2001.

Yeah, he ran the 4-3 in 2001 through 2003
The Pats ran a 3-4 in 2000 and 2004 under Crennel.
So he actually ran more 4-3 than 3-4 in New England. On top of that, a lot of his sub packages were 40 front (and a lot of 1 and 2 man lines) |

Pretty sure it was a 3-4 base in '03.

You're right, 2004 was the year they ran a lot of 4-3. For some reason I was thinking it was 2003. They used McGinest with his hand down so frequently that the distinction is tough to remember. There wasn't much functional difference between the 4-3 and 3-4 they ran those days because it was virtually the same personnel in each alignment and they had a lot of pre-snap shifting (something we haven't seen a ton of since Crennel left).
