Norm Chow now?


So I just read a few blurbs about the Rams'Josh McDaniels negotiations breaking down. Reports are sketchy, so we don't know the precise nature of the difficulties. Some believe it is money.

I suspect it is chemistry. I am not sure McDaniels will work well with Coach Spags or Sam Bradford. The synastry looks low.

McDaniels is a Taurus should match with a Scorpio like Bradford extremely well. This is the unity of opposites. Guess what? Not in this particular case. The numbers look... Uhmmm... bad. .

1. Similarity of Interests and Temperament: 114
2. Mutual Success and High Achievement: 94
3. Problem Solving, Communication, and Mutual Understanding: 11
4. Mutual Kindness, Friendliness, Pleasantness, and Peace: 34
5. Aggressiveness, Competition, Power, Success, or Violence: 10
6. Adventurousness, Surprises, Disturbances: 91
7. Shared Creativity, Imagination, and Inspiration: 161

Above 150 is very high. This trait is VERY strong!
125 to 150 is above average. The trait is strong.
115 to 125 is slightly above average. The trait is slightly strong.
85 to 115 is average.
75 to 85 is slightly below average. The trait is slightly weak.
50 to 75 is weak.
50 or lower is VERY weak!

A Taurus like McDaniels has no particular compatibility with Sagittarius like Coach Spags, and the specific numbers look... uhmmmm... bad.

1. Similarity of Interests and Temperament: 86
2. Mutual Success and High Achievement: 56
3. Problem Solving, Communication, and Mutual Understanding: 89
4. Mutual Kindness, Friendliness, Pleasantness, and Peace: 75
5. Aggressiveness, Competition, Power, Success, or Violence: 58
6. Adventurousness, Surprises, Disturbances: 16
7. Shared Creativity, Imagination, and Inspiration: 164

Taurus goes well with a Pisces like Billy Devaney, and the numbers are more interesting in his case, but still not good. So it looks like a programmatic non-fit.

1. Similarity of Interests and Temperament: 143
2. Mutual Success and High Achievement: 114
3. Problem Solving, Communication, and Mutual Understanding: 14
4. Mutual Kindness, Friendliness, Pleasantness, and Peace: 47
5. Aggressiveness, Competition, Power, Success, or Violence: 139
6. Adventurousness, Surprises, Disturbances: 96
7. Shared Creativity, Imagination, and Inspiration: 43

Norm Chow?

Chow is recognized as a great QB developer and a legit offensive genius, but he has had a bad run since he left USC. He didn't get the QB he wanted in Tennessee, and neither did Coach Fisher. He goes to UCLA, which is the most dysfunctional sports organization in the world, and basically nothing happens for him. USC wants him back, but he wants to be reliable and steadfast, so he stays at UCLA. Rick Neuheisel then fires Chow for ass-coverage just a few weeks ago.

Chow should be a head coach somewhere today, but the consensus is that he doesn't interview well. I hope we can look past that and hire the guy. He has great Synastry with Sam Bradford. Check out the numbers.

Bradford vs Chow
1. Similarity of Interests and Temperament: 229
2. Mutual Success and High Achievement: 211
3. Problem Solving, Communication, and Mutual Understanding: 151
4. Mutual Kindness, Friendliness, Pleasantness, and Peace: 105
5. Aggressiveness, Competition, Power, Success, or Violence: 64
6. Adventurousness, Surprises, Disturbances: 111
7. Shared Creativity, Imagination, and Inspiration: 125

The success and the communications scores are the way you would like them to be. Incidentally, Chow is a Taurus dude. Here we see the unity of opposites. The problem is that he doesn't have particularly thrilling scores with Devaney and Spagnuolo.

I checked my own favorite, Mike Leach, but he also happens to have bad specific Synastry with everybody. Strange, I would think he'd be a good 66% fit. Not so.

Incidentally, I checked Brad Childress and he also has bad chemistry with Sam Bradford. Gemini and Scorpio don't go together well. Leonardo DiCaprio and his girl are on the rocks. Katy Perry and Russell Brand ain't going to last. These signs go together like peanut butter and motor oil.

It is tough finding a good coach.
