I would imagine Dan Morgan and perhaps Pat Stewart are part of the search as well.

Hopefully their opinions will be valued at least as much as Mrs. Tepper's. /s

I was really hoping to hear about a former executive from the Steelers, Packers or 49ers being brought in as a consultant, so Dave won't have to resort to pasta toppings for the final decision.

Been hoping for Colbert here.

Tepper talked like he might go that route for this search, but ultimately decided against it, I guess.

If he hires Johnson or Steichen and they end up being dogshit head coaches, is it Teppers fault?

Those are the 2 most popular choices amongst the huddle, just like Rhule was an extremely popular choice on the Huddle before he turned out to be dogshit.

TBH, yes. Even if he does something that the Huddle generally agrees with, continuing to lose/fail will be his fault. 

The difference being that our opinions are based on literally just observation of the process, whereas(in theory) Tepper has direct access to(supposedly) knowledgeable football people and an entire interview and background process. 

He has much better tools for success at his disposal than we do. That doesn't assure success but repeatedly failing at this task is generally a hallmark of poor ownership and management.

I think we have a much better pool if candidates than last time. Put them all in a dartboard and blindfold him and he could hit any of them and still be a pretty good upgrade from Rhule.

I'd actually be ok with any of them. No hard feelings against any of the choices.... except maybe Kellen Moore.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Right. But you do understand that there is no such thing as not signing free agents, right? That's what I mean. So make some good free agency moves and do well in the draft. That's step one. If you can't accomplish that, then this will just keep getting worse.

      Sweet jebus this is idiotic Yes, overall team success in this league, you need a good QB, but beyond just that painfully obvious fact, let's get into the rest of the stupid in there......... First things first, you say.. "if we need a good QB for him to have success, then why are you drafting that player with the #1 pick" Show me one time I've ever said we would need a good QB for T-Mac himself to have success... you can't, because I never have.  I think you're referring to the "he's bad enough that we then have a Top 5 pick to target a QB" part of my post, which is very clearly talking about said QB, not T-Mac.  The other way to interpret that is just overall team success, which again, wouldn't be anything about T-Mac or his ability to impact the offense or overall team wins and losses. I'm quite sure I could do this with a number of teams over the years, but I don't want to spend the time to do multiple, so I'll keep it to just the 2023 Vikings right now since you wanted to use Jefferson as your example....... The Vikings went 3-6 after Cousins went down last year.  And two of those wins came before Jefferson even came back from his own injury, they were 1-4 in the final 5 weeks after Jefferson came back. In those 5 games, Jefferson had 31 catches, 503 yards, and 2 TDs Having the WR you specifically called out didn't help them go better than 1-4 with a bad QB, even though he still put up a great stat line for that time period either.  It also didn't make that QB good enough to where they then went out and brought in TWO new QB's this year to replace Doubs and Mullens who started down the stretch for them last year. And that's with 4th year Jefferson, not a rookie that T-Mac would be If you expect a WR getting drafted #1 overall to be the player to turn a franchise as bad as we are around in 1 season, make whatever QB we're able to put in there be successful, and lead us to a solid season, then you are literally insane. We are AWFUL, we have a few young guys who could turn into great players, but we are so far from being a good team, that there isn't any player we could draft next year that is going to change that in 2025.
