From the writer... If that's true, damn

With Brown, we decided that we didn't want to be meanies and block him from a chance to work somewhere else. I'm sure it's out of kindness 🫥

So remember that news item about the Panthers blocking guys from interviewing for lateral moves? Apparently it doesn't apply to everyone

Oh, okay. Yeah, she would know how to take a shot like that.

I'd want his dad along as OL coach at least, maybe even OC to start off.

Here's a complete list: ...

Part of the discussion was that NFL people question whether candidates will want to tie their futures to David Tepper.

For what it's worth, ESPN made their predictions for the open jobs. Dan Graziano had us hiring Brian Callahan. They predicted Johnson to the Commanders.

I think that was Vince McMahon's wife.

That's something I missed too... Interesting

The source...

No history of being that way that I know of. I thought his departure from the Ravens was generally amicable but I'd have to look back at it.

Number one right now is probably the Chiefs. Steelers had been the top of that list for years, though they're arguably not what they used to be. The Ravens under Ozzie Newsome, perhaps less so under Eric Dacosta but still up there. The Patriots, if you like the "evil empire" management model. The Cowboys might be if you exclude Jerry Jones from the situation, but you can't. The 49ers, Bills, and Rams have risen up on recent years.but are still in relatively new territory. Some might say the Browns should be in the discussion but the Deshaun Watson deal sinks that idea for me.

Live look at Ben Johnson being "interviewed"...

Why? He certainly knows his Xs and Os 🫥 (arguably better than Brian Johnson does, from what I've seen)

I discussed it somewhere. That whole "hire guys you don't know" trend didn't last long, did it?

No disrespect to Evero, but I wouldn't mind Martindale at all. He's like what Dick LeBeau used to be when he was still around.

That was the kind of innovation you could only get from Matt Rhule

Watch him rejoin Sean Payton in Denver

Damn

Saints firing Pete Carmichael...wow.

With Carroll out, don't know that there are any "full power / final say" coaches left. I know Tomlin is pretty powerful in Pittsburgh if he stays. Other than that...

Is flip-flop the Chargers and Raiders. New England I'm iffy on because you have to follow in the footsteps of Belichick and would have no say in the head coach since he's already hired. Also worth noting we're the only job in the group without a high (or any) first round pick.
