Meanwhile in Nebraska...

If you suspect you may have been poisoned and you need to induce vomiting, this is what I would recommend.

That was funny and made me spit my drink out, well done. 

 

I'll give him credit, him and his staff are recruiting their buts off. If he can coach, you'll be able to see it soon in Nebraska's record. 

 

Maybe he's just an NFL guy, that's possible... still sucks the Panthers were the guinea pigs.

You can put 3-4 years down on a piece of paper but it doesn't mean anything when everyone in the world knows that if Wilks is hired he's on a year by year evaluation because he already has experience failing as a HC in the NFL.  I don't care if Tepper gives him a 20 year deal - it's not my money and has no effect on the allocation of the salary cap.

The book is out on him. He would need to do "an incredible job" to maintain any type of job security.

Exactly

Slowest hiring process ever in the nfl 

I mean there's 5 vacancies and no one has hired anyone yet. Only Arizona and Houston have even scheduled 2nd round interviews. Carolina, Denver and Indy are in the process of doing so. Outside of maybe Denver, the leading candidates for these roles seem to be guys that are still in the playoffs. I doubt you're going to see much movement in terms of a guy being hired this week unless Arizona decides they want to hire Flores, Kafka, or Quinn.

Jeff Saturday apparently still an option for the Colts

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...

Both are examples I point to when considering our next coaching hire. I don’t think there were many outside of the organizations hiring them that took them seriously. No one’s chuckling now!

    • Evero to the Raiders makes zero sense unless the OC he's pitching them is a failed HC who doesn't have interest in trying for it again. They're a team about to draft a QB #1 overall, developing him is job #1 for the new coach/staff.  Hiring a DC with a young up and coming OC wouldn't make any sense, because then you risk losing that OC to a HC job after maybe just a year or two and that young QB has to change system, play caller, etc. It's why hiring an offensive minded coach makes the only sense.  The Raiders have to make the right hire/pick with this HC hire and #1 pick combo because of that division they're in, it's a gauntlet and you can't screw up this opportunity.  
    • 1. Sadly, it's just too early to tell with Icky. And the draft will have come and gone before we have anything, FA, too probably. Njiman was good, but there's dollars to be invested there as well. This is really our biggest puzzle to figure out. And Moton on the other flank is getting long in the tooth, too.  2. Coker: Pay the man WR2 money.  3. Most WRs take three years before you really know what you've got. We'll know for sure by the end of this one and he's still on a relatively inexpensive rookie contract. Now if someone comes calling for a good, good trade... 4. This is the make or break for good teams vs bad teams. And depth development is essential. We've had a bit of that but there isn't a spot on our line that doesn't have worries except for maybe on guard.  5. I think you draft the best ILB, the smartest one in the first round and don't look back. People lost their poo here on this board when we "wasted" a pick on Luke Kuechly.  6. Yeah, I think Chuba is a workhorse. But we need to be more decisive in his use. Still not sure Rico doesn't come back next season, too. He'll get to see the marketplace first, though, and we'll offer similar numbers to him.  
    • I've grown to enjoy Mike & Tripp, even more so after listening to the ESPN, TNT, TBS hacks who, for whatever reason, seemingly don't know dick about the Canes.
