Just more of players/coaches not wanting to come here because they want to win. That’s why you see this locker room fighting for Wilks hiring. They’re the players that put $ over winning and want to keep the gravy train rolling while putting in low effort. 

Haha yep. Shaq Thompson, the gravy train conductor....all aboard!!!!

imagine hiring a coach that everyone had a chance to interview and no one did

I don't know that anybody else interviewed Andy Reid when he got the Eagles job. He wasn't even a coordinator at the time. Hell, I'm not sure anybody besides them interviewed Sirianni last year either.

If there's one thing the Eagles have shown they know how to do, it's hiring head coaches.

and if there's one thing we have shown we aren't very good at under this ownership, it's hiring head coaches

This ownership has technically only hired one, and that was under the guidance of Marty Hurney and Steven Drummond.

At least this time, there are some actual football people helping guide the search.

ESPN's Nick Wagoner reports 49ers DC DeMeco Ryans will not interview for the Panthers' head coaching vacancy after the two sides were unable to arrange a time for an interview.

The Panthers are officially on to their second round of coaching interviews. Unfortunately for them, it won't include Ryans, as the two sides were unable to schedule an interview during the open window period last week. Ryans has arguably been the most coveted head coaching candidate on the market this offseason, but he and the 49ers are also in the middle of a playoff run. With limited time to speak to prospective teams due to league rules, the 49ers' defensive coordinator has only met with the Broncos and Texans thus far but is also expected to meet with the Colts and Cardinals.

No one ever heard of Sirianni either. I believe he was a reluctant play caller with the Colts - does anyone even know what his official title was?

Zac Taylor was more well known but again did anyone foresee him leading the Bengals to this level of success?

Trust the process

Well, now wait a second.  Chip Kelly would like to say something here.

It's unlike Dov to push something like that and cite Cowherd. I'm not doubting it to be true, just seems odd.

That's one reason why I noted it. Kleiman is generally a decent source.

I'd like to think he has information outside of just Cowherd, but if so he didn't mention it.

Fair point 😄

They've also been known to have a turbulent relationship with some of those coaches after they're hired.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
