This is what I thought as well but how come no other coaches have been fired yet? Apparently some blue checks on twitter have said this really isn't that big of a deal but I haven't read the logic behind that yet. I really do wonder if they just don't have an interim option.

You are thinking logically. We fired Brady 1/2 way through the bye week. You are thinking way too clearly.

I think you’re right about the interim. All the assistants are Rhules guys from college except for the qb coach and st coach. If Rhule is fires, I don’t think one of his boys would take the interim job in his place, and if Ryan or Blackburn take the position, who’s gna be on their staff? I doubt Nixon, Snow and the rest of Rhules staff would stick around.

I speak for everybody that we do NOT want Snow and especially Nixon to stick around even as a toilet scrubber. None of Ruhle’s people need to be retained on any level. They need to all go back and coach a mid level college football program.

Rhule was awfully happy and upbeat yesterday at his presser. I think y'all are crazy. 

LOL. What do your expect? His answer about the crowds booing and yelling fire him was 100% the right thing to say. 

[BurnNChinn]

I don’t expect it to happen, but definitely hope this is true.

It’s just odd no HCs went yesterday. 
 

I also don’t know why there hasn’t been any confirmed reports of him staying or going. If he’s staying, okay come out and say it officially. All we hear is he’s staying but Tepper may change his mind, or he’s leaving or he’s got confidence from Tepper but not gotten a direct answer. Just fugging make a call.

"They did not want him to get on the plane to the Giants," Rapoport said of the NFC East team.

I have no idea what's going on. There are definitely going to be coaches fired this off-season but none were fired yesterday. That surprised me. Maybe there's a gentleman's agreement among the owners not to jump the gun to kickstart the process barring extraordinary circumstances like was seen with the Gruden and Meyer situations? I don't know. All I know is that coaches are going to be fired, some owners already know they're firing their coaches, and yet no one pulled the trigger yesterday to get a jumpstart on the situation. Seems like there's gotta be some type of collusion afoot.

I thought it was written that you just have to notify the coach he is being fired to start interviews today? I didn't see anything that said they had to let everyone else know. I did assume doing interviews would be an obvious indicator. I also didn't see it as anything more than a notice of intent to fire. 

Maybe you are right, I just haven't taken the time to look deeply into the new rule about the last 2 weeks and coach searches.

Ok so the Reddit OP's uncle is from NY and was hired by Carolina.

Could be Dan Morgan. High school and college in Florida, worked for the Bills before coming back. Idk if he or his wife have siblings and if so, they're in Florida still. But it's not impossible.

Tom Glick is another possibility. Again, guy that has been between NY and the UK before coming here. Unsure on Florida ties.

I don't have the time to invest in background research into everybody in the organization, but there could be credibility to this.

It's not as hard as you might think.

Just download the Panthers 2021 Media Guide and search for New York or NY (case matched).

Teams can still fire coaches any time they want.

Saw some speculation that the Vikings might wait until after they see this Sunday's result.

Not sure what the details are. That "notified they won't be back" could just apply to expiring contracts. I don't know. It's gonna be next to impossible to keep interviews quiet either way.

The biggest worry from this was that other teams could jump ahead of us for the best candidates if we didn't move quickly.

Granted that could still happen, but at least so far, nobody's "moving" at all (except seemingly Jacksonville).

Completely agree
