Giants and Bears also are interviewing Flores
Noticeably absent from this fawning coverage would be Baalke's infatuation with guys recovering from ACL injuries that never seemed to pan out. See: Marcus Lattimore. Or his belief that his players were soooo good that he could force out Jim Harbaugh and successfully replace him with a literal buffoon (Jim Tomsula). Sorry, the guy just triggers me.
On the one hand... yeah.
It's kind of an owners' agreement not to take attention away from the playoffs. There might be one or two announcements, but I suspect we'll start seeing things unfold Monday
Seems to make too much sense for it not to happen. That division would be bonkers. I hope Mayo doesn’t take the LV job and get the crap kicked out of him. Let Harbaugh run that gauntlet.
When you get the chance to hire the guy whose defense was best at the most variable year-to-year thing, you've got to do it.
I joked before that Flores has the charm of Joe Judge, but has some wins to back it up.
The issue with hiring a defensive guy is the instability it can present to the offense and potentially your QB. Offensive guys tend to be the guys that get hired away for HC opportunities.
I decided to look this up because I was curious.
I assume that issue is now resolved and McDaniels will become the next HC of the LVR. Query as to whether any other NEP coaches will join his staff.
Agree on both points, though I am a bit concerned about a new OC for Mac in year 2. BoB would be a nice replacement.
Pats offense was really good when he was here. And yes, I know he had Brady.
Bit of hyperbole on my part obviously. But they're pretty regularly topped out at average, and often pretty bad. For whatever reason they seem committed to trying to win games by cornering the market on linebackers and special teams.
I agree, I would lean very strong to an offensive guy in today's landscape, especially with a young developing QB. Can't make a blanket statement but the QB/coach combo is just so crucial in today's NFL.
That piece in the athletic was from yesterday and Rapoport tweeted this just a little while ago. Perhaps the Athletic has bad intel?
The holdup was either money or power structure. It sounds like Ziegler is pushing for Champ Kelly to be his assistant GM and Davis wants his guy to stay on. Seems like Ziegler is winning.
These guys have huge egos. Sure a rational person would be like that division is a tough place to compete in, but these lunatics believe they can scheme the shit out of Carr or QB X and win. Plus the Raiders made the playoffs with their bizarre coaching year, they are not the Giants.
