Coaching staff interviews are happening, but...

So I guess if we choose Mike Shula 2.0 to be one of our other coaches, I guess he'll blame that on "missed opportunities?"

Or Gettleman being too cheap and only allowing taking out potential candidates to lunch at McDonalds.

Did not read that as he is deferring to his staff.  Nothing wrong with getting input IMO.  

There's different approaches to take, some more authoritative than others. Personally, these type of decisions I'd rather have consultation. On the field decisions, not as much.

i get the impression that most of you have never gone through the process of hiring someone, and i don't mean a cashier at mcdonald's. try it sometime, then come back and comment in this thread.

yes, you can hire someone quickly. but unless you want to be hiring someone to replace them 6 months later, you better take your time.

I'm not against collaboration. I just couldn't tell you of a single coach I've ever heard of taking this approach.

But in the end, however it happens, I just hope we end up making the right hires.

Rivera added that the team had just finished conducting interviews for the vacancies at secondary coach and receivers coach after the promotion of Steve Wilks to defensive coordinator and the retirement of Ricky Proehl. He added that there would likely be a decision late in the week after he has a chance to meet with his staff.

No mention of QB coach.

I have done it.  hired two employees quickly after one interview because I knew they were a fit.  this was 5 years ago.  they are still with the company and doing well.  some people have the ability to make quick decisions that are good.  Ron is not one of these people, and that's fine.  everyone has their process, the only thing that matters is the result.

Early on in his time here, Rivera hired two or three coaches that he wound up firing a year later.

Don't know whether he's changed his processes any since then.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
