What are we doing?

Recommended Posts

So the Falcons - a divisional rival - have interviewed:

Baltimore Ravens Defensive Coordinator Mike Macdonald
Cincinnati Bengals Offensive Coordinator Brian Callahan
San Francisco 49ers Defensive Coordinator Steve Wilks
Carolina Panthers Defensive Coordinator Ejiro Evero
Baltimore Ravens Assistant Head Coach/Defensive Line Coach Anthony Weaver
Former New England Patriots Head Coach Bill Belichick
University of Michigan Head Coach Jim Harbaugh

 

Meanwhile, we have interviewed:

HC Chris Tabor

DC Ejiro Evero

Ravens OC Todd Monken

Ravens DC Mike Macdonald

 

What the actual (*@$ are we doing?  Our HC has been gone since mid-season.  The Falcons started their search less than two weeks ago.

We don't even want to have a conversation with Harbaugh or Belichick?  I'm truly baffled.  Every time you think we've hit rock bottom, along comes Tupperware with his pickaxe and chisels us down another few feet.

Are the interviews expected to be secret? I always assumed the league wants those publicized, at the very least to verify the Rooney Rule is being followed.

Not all of them, apparently people who aren't employed in the NFL can be secret, but yeah they want to publicize interviews and we have. I guess I mean we don't know what the team is thinking. Lots of random picks for our next coach like Moore being betting favorite and the ESPN article giving us Callahan. No one knows anything about our search other than us loving Ben Johnson.

If I am not mistaken, haven't all of our interviews been Zoom sessions?  Not sure if that is the norm, but in my experience, Zoom interviews are screening interviews before setting up the serious interviews.

I think if we do end up interviewing a Harbaugh or Belichick type, we'll find out just like we found out about the Frank Smith interview last night - an out of the blue tweet from the official team account.

All of our interviews so far are with candidates that are currently employed by teams so we can only do Zoom interviews at this stage. In-person interviews with currently employed coaches can't start until after Sunday.

unless i'm mistaken (quite possible, fwiw) no one can have in person interviews until the 22nd.

    • That's certainly what we hope but c'mon... stating it as fact when he's never played a down of NFL football? 
    • What?!?!?! Chark's 1,000 yard season was 4 years before he played for us and he only had 525 yards in 15 games as our #1 WR.  Dude has 3,100 yards in 7 seasons, he's the literal definition of a JAG and you think he is better than half our current WR room? T-Mac is literally already better than Chark was at his peak, which again, was years before he ever even put on a Panthers uniform, and there is a real argument to be made that XL and Coker were both better as rookies than Chark was for us in his one season here.
    • Im glad we're starting low. It's nonsensical to put us at 28 IMHO based on objective things IMHO (I think 21-24) is far more appropriate but whatever. Washington was at the bottom last year FWIW.  In 2003, Sports Illustrated said our best chance to win the division was to transfer to the ACC. In 2015, everyone wrote us off as a team that snuck into the playoffs with a losing record in 2014 and lost our best WR in TC (Kelvin Benjamin). All these videos are fodder for conversation, but this prediction has no more validity than saying the Panthers are making the SB bc we're starting the season against the Jaguars again. If Bryce plays like he did down the stretch we will end up the season just fine. This roster is much better than it has been the last 2 seasons. No one knows who any season will ultimately end up, but this team is finally being built in the right way, and the idea that this roster can't compete this year is as insane as being it was when we were gaslit in 2023 that we were a rookie QB from winning the division with that roster.
