No, no, no. You do that AFTER hiring a head coach. You know, the way all successful franchises do!

I agree if Canales goes Morgan has to also, they should be considered a package deal. Let the new GM pick his coach by himself!

Morgan did hire Canales as they worked together in Seattle 

Technically this is true. Fitterer was fired on Jan. 8th, Dan was hired on Jan. 22 and Dave was hired on Jan. 24. 

Dan was the guy for the entire interview process during that cycle, more than likely.

great write up OP but this confirms but my suspicions that there are a TON of names on that list that either don't excite me or straight up terrify me

Of all the options listed. Flores, Minter and maybe maybe Morton get me excited

we've tried the college HC, we've tried the retread HC, we've tried the upcoming offensive mind. All of these can work but we've simply picked three bad options

What we haven't tried is a culture setting CEO type like Dan Campbell. I believe Brian Flores can be that. He will need a good staff around him on offense but at minimum guys will play hard for him. 

The best success we've had under tepper was with Wilks, it wasn't always pretty but guys played hard and we were competitive. The same can not be said for any other stretch under him

The other option is to be patient and wait and see if a good HC gets canned from his current team. No way Minnesota fires KOC but let's say they have ANOTHER bad season next year. Maybe we could trade for him. I doubt it but at this point I really want someone with a proven track record of success.

To be fair we had the culture setter and Tepper meddled and made him run a defense that wasn't his mo then fired him when it didn't work. Then had another one as an interim and let him walk when he didn't like the plan of giving up the farm to draft a QB and preferred sticking with darnold

    • We need to totally clean house, coach, gm, QB, and all leftovers like Caldwell etc.  Too bad Tepper won't do this. 
    • It's not just a talent issue it's not just a scheme issue it's not just a playcalling issue it's not just a coaching issue. When you observe players basically going through the motions it says they don't believe in what they're doing and if they don't believe in what they're doing you evaluate every moving part and reassess. But you can't evaluate every moving part if the engine at the center does not possess the necessary ability for you to open up the entire field and keep the defense honest. What you see now is the result of three years of trying to build a system around this quarterback. All these players watch film together and see the same thing we do. And the only reason guys like TMac looked the way he did early on is because he is the newest part to the system. Only 4 games in and even he is starting to have the same body language. All this other rabble about what Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield are doing as if they are both very short and possess limited at best physical talent is just cope.
    • “I wanna see Canales with another QB” as if a new QB will fix all of this haha   welp… lets gear up for ruining another QB boyz
