First piece of the McDaniels-Brady to Dallas rumor to fall
Or trade for Sean Payton/sign Drew Brees....First piece of the McDaniels-Brady to Dallas rumor to fall
Right after Payton is eliminated. Interesting timing.Or trade for Sean Payton/sign Drew Brees....
Judge was one of the coaches that had agreed to join Indy with McDaniels and stayed with the Patriots after Josh did the same, so with Josh making a move this year, it's certainly seems extremely likely that Judge is either going with him or doing his own thing unless he's in line for a big promotion with the Patriots. Given what we've seen out of the WR this year with him taking on WR Coach duties in addition to special teams coordinator, it's hard to see him getting promoted within the offensive coaching positions.View: https://twitter.com/BruceFeldmanCFB/status/1214205136794345474
If the Pats lose Josh and Judge, man that is a lot of brain drain in a 3 year period
His overall point isn't wrong, though. Raise your hand if you thought Marvin Lewis was a legitimate candidate in Dallas. Though that interview satisfied the letter of the rule, it completely ignored the spirit of it. They could have at least given Kris Richard a shot at the job to give it even the slightest whiff of sincerity.Ron Rivera was the first coach hired so this seems like a weird year to talk about the lack of minority candidates being hired.
It's a farce when teams make it a farce. Some teams do take it seriously, even teams that wind up hiring white men. I think it has generally been good for the league, but it could be better. And I think calling out teams that make it a farce is part of making it better (not, like, us, here calling out teams. But people that matter, calling out teams in public).His overall point isn't wrong, though. Raise your hand if you thought Marvin Lewis was a legitimate candidate in Dallas.

I'm as opposed to letting the perfect be the enemy of the good as anyone but time has revealed that rule to not even be a half-assed attempt at addressing the issue. It's a farce and everyone knows it.
Lazy, shallow, short-sighted hiring processes can and do benefit individual minority candidates in some instances. But on the whole, lazy, shallow, short-sighted hiring processes will lead to hires that generally look like the hires that have existed to date; i.e., disproportionately white. More thorough hiring processes will be good for the league and good for minorities generally, even if they were to result in Rivera not getting this particular job. They'll also likely lead to better hires and thus better football. So to be clear: we should still definitely make fun of Dan Snyder.Ron Rivera was the first coach hired so this seems like a weird year to talk about the lack of minority candidates being hired.
I don't necessarily disagree but it sure is walking and quacking like a duck. Just because a handful of teams do take it seriously doesn't make it any less of a farce since the majority of the teams are able to expose it as one so openly and willingly.It's a farce when teams make it a farce.

I don't know if it's a majority; it's probably more like 50/50. The last couple years have been frustrating in this regard but if you look back 25 years ago, there's been tremendous progress. And I think Goodell does care about this issue (the optics around it, at least).I don't necessarily disagree but it sure is walking and quacking like a duck.

He picked Carolina before going to NY.Jesus - they’d didn’t even interview Rhule? And so much for the reports on Garrett.
It will either be an underrated really good hire or an unmitigated disaster. I see no in between.Stunning set of circumstances with Carolina and NY Giants. Giants certainly went out on a limb to hire Judge. This could be a disaster.
Everyone loves Rhule, but a six year deal is crazy. I think they made the right call declining to match. Their alternative choice can be debated.
Ah. That does makes some sense.Apparently the request to interview Jason Garrett is for the Giants' OC job. That's actually not a bad thing. Knows his offense, can mentor Judge, and develop Daniel Jones.
