If the owners thought they could win with a black head coach, they'd hire one.

And they have. See Mike Tomlin.
The stats tell a different tale. Let me see if I can find that again. With the exception of head coaches and owners, blacks are over-represented in the NFL coaching staffs - like 25%, and players are 70%.

The idea is that if blacks represent 70% of the players, they ought to represent 70% of the head coaches.

Which is total bullshit. You have to know the game, yes, but leadership, recruiting, personnel management, developing strategy and game management are way different skills.

Sean Payton was asked was there anything he left that would help the new head coach, Dennis Allen.
Payton replied that he left him a clean office, with a comfortable cot and a custom, high pressure shower in the office's bathroom. Said he was going to need the cot and the shower..
Interestingly enough, I've watched a couple of Payton's interviews with Eisen, etc., during Superbowl week. He's a spokesperson for Zebra, the company that chips the equipment and provides a lot of the metrics on players, such as how fast they are running, how quickly they change directions and other measurements.
What was very evident, was how relaxed he was and how he looked ten years younger.

But tell them that prison statistics or stop-and-frisk stats should be normalized to the criminal population rather than the general population and they cry foul.

I think a more realistic comparison (not as a quota per se but as a reasonableness test) would be to compare black head coaching percentage to the percentage of black players 20 years ago (since coaches are are in their 40s and 50s) who scored in (say) the top quintile of the wonderlic test.
That seems to be a better approximation of the potential coaching pool.
And completely illogical.
