One less opening.  We may just be looking at the current 5 vacancies.  If so, that's fewer that most years. I would still keep an eye on Belichick.  There's not an urgency to move for Kraft even if that's in the cards. 

I would watch Tennessee as well. I don’t know that Vrabel doesn’t leave or make enough demands intentionally so he’s told to leave.

I wonder if the Pats are in wait and see mode for Vrabel, supposedly they would be interested if he hit the market.

That one is on my radar too, but if it didn't happen today, it's probably not going to happen.

If Bill B switches teams, I am guessing the Chargers.  Established QB. 

The Raiders are going to hire their interim.  They have done it before, and frankly, Pierce deserves the job (went 5-4, I think, and is popular with the players).

Atlanta is an appealing gig.  They drafted TE and RB in the first round, which is odd, but both are good players.  I would not be surprised to see Vrabel end up there if Tennessee lets him go. 

Washington needs a QB and they have the #2 pick--which means they will be drafting a franchise QB.  This job may be the most attractive to any perspective coach for that reason.  The Commanders MAYE have 2 UNC QBs on the roster by mid spring.  Any coach would love that situation.

Carolina has a rep for firing coaches that do not get immediate results, but the QB position is a #1 overall draft pick who struggled mightily in 2023.  The owner is a meddler.  We are not getting a brand name coach--expect some young upstart who just started shaving every day.  Tepper needs to make some public proclamations to assure season ticket holders and perspective employees that he has learned his lesson.

Lotta smoke around Belichick and the Falcons.

He can't just leave unless he takes a college job. He's under contract. Tennessee would have to fire him or trade him.

Sorry should have clarified. By the first leave I meant get fired. By the second leave I meant be so ridiculous in his demands that they fire him.

in addition to the #2 overall, Washington has 2 2nd rounders (3 picks in the top 40) and 2 3rd rounders.  That's a lot of young talent a new HC will be able to go get to fit whatever vision they have.

    • I respect his enthusiasm. Time will tell if it's warrented. 
    • Oh I went off and fully entertained my wife last night as my emails go to her phone as well because of my health. So she got the whole conversation as it happened.    Like I went to games in Detroit for the cup finals, I've been to games in Greensboro, Raleigh, and Chicago as well. My mom and her nurse friend double dated one of the players from when the team was in Greensboro. "He's still with the team in some compacity as well." I know people who work for the team at the arena as well. How the hell would I not be considered a fan. Only reason I haven't gone to a game since 2022 is because of my health and money situation. Last game I went to was at United Center in Chicago and me and my wife spent around 1k for glass seats and some food at the arena and we were next to the penalty box. The pictures of the hurricane players I took are lost because my phone crapped out a few weeks later. 
    • The Falcons win was a fantastic way to end the season and I think just about every Panthers fan would agree the team the coaching staff and particularly Bryce Young were impressive. We really needed that. Credit where it's due. At the same time. Now we have to establish it wasn't just a flash in the pan. We had one of those earlier in the season against the Raiders. As a tortured Panthers fan I have to acknowledge that. I know you're joking but in all seriousness I don't think the QB sneak is something for us to be concerned about in general but I would be lying to myself if I did not acknowledge that looking back at one particular game last season where we continually trotted out Eddie Pinero on 4th and short on the opponents side of the field we could use some creativity in those situations and it's also a matter of predictability. As time goes on it's something for Canales to work on and figure out. Especially with our kicker situation as it stands.
