Fair point 😄

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

Kelly may be the exception that proves the rule.  And even that could have worked out, right up until they gave him personnel control so he could take his science experiment to the next level......and blow up the lab while he was in it.

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.

Also coulda swore two Broncos beat reporters just hours ago said it looked like Payton was out. What happened while I was napping.  😂😂😂

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.

Wait, you're not actually comparing Steve Wilks (which is who Growl was alluding to) to Andy Reid?

Philly definitely has a different process when it comes to their HC searches. They interviewed and hired Reid before hiring a coach who had never been a coordinator was even a thing, and when they hired Pederson and Sirianni, they were the only ones to interview those two during those respective HC searches.

Best read I can get is that the owner wants him but others aren't so sure.

Having people to potentially stop the new owner from doing something dumb would have been nice to have here a few years ago.

No. Just giving an example of the situation he was talking about.

Every coaching search is different. There's no one model that everybody follows.

Nick Sirianni and Dan Campbell both said some things that people chuckled at when they first got their jobs.

They're doing decent now though...

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
