Wouldn't it be something if they went back to Wilks?Kingsbury OUT in Arizona. Again, no surprises here.

That was a hilariously bad extension at the time, two guys who looked bad at their jobs saved by an 11-6 season that involved losing 4 of 5 to close out the year getting huge long extensions.Im only surprised since they were both locked up through 2027. That has to be a hard pill to swallow for ownership and you’re stuck with Murray.
Not sure he'll get another chance. Had a pretty mediocre record at Texas TechKingsbury seems destined to go make a ton of money in college. Maybe try again in the NFL in five years.
I think his options will be:Not sure he'll get another chance. Had a pretty mediocre record at Texas Tech
Probably but Mayo has already had some HC interviews and might be able to jump without a DC title. More guys have seem to do it recently. Didn't hurt Flores although he was the clear leader excluding Belichick while Mayo takes a backseat to Steve B in play calling.If Mayo’s goal is to be a head coach, he should take a DC job. I expect it’s been hard, and will continue to be hard, for him to get to the front of the line in HC searches without being able to demonstrate clear responsibility for running a defense.
Yeah, that seems likely to me.I think his options will be:
1. Head coach at a smaller school
2. OC at a power school to build his brand again.
Def a gig for a coach without other head coaching options and looking for aThat's a mess of a job for the next guy, given the Murray situation.
This would be a nice get for the Browns.Browns want to interview Flores for DC job

I think if Mayo gets a HC job the Patriots pick up extra draft picks. Not sure that's the case if he jumps to a DC role.Probably but Mayo has already had some HC interviews and might be able to jump without a DC title.
Count me in the minority who feel they are stuck with Murray past next season. They are going to have to bite the bullet at some point unless he makes a leap next year and after next season would seem to be their best opportunity.Im only surprised since they were both locked up through 2027.

After winning on the last play of the game and thereby costing the Texans the leverage having the #1 draft pick.
I'm not going to blame him for his crappy QB throwing a miracle TD, but if he just has them kick the XP instead of going for two, they could have still gotten the #1 pick with a tie.After winning on the last play of the game and thereby costing the Texans the leverage having the #1 draft pick.
Now that Vrabel and Stefanski are safe -- they've both hunting for new DCs -- there really isn't an obvious candidate until the Bucs knock off the CowboysBTW this has gotta be the quietest Black Monday in at least a decade.
Unless one of the first round losers decides to fire someone, there's not another obvious other spotI went back and looked at first post where I was ballpark thinking 5 openings
We have:
Broncos
Panthers
Colts
Cardinals
Texans
Is that going to be it?
Kingsbury despises recruiting so this makes the most sense to me. I don’t see him going back to the NCAA.If Eric Bieniemy gets a head coaching job, maybe KC is a landing spot for Kingsbury. He coached Mahomes at Texas Tech.
Plus with Reid as the head coach and and Mahomes at quarterback, he won't have to work that hardKingsbury despises recruiting so this makes the most sense to me. I don’t see him going back to the NCAA.
Yeah, him ... or maybe the Chargers, if they lose in Jacksonville
Den it's going to be Harbaugh or Payton yes on peyton denver will have to give up ther first round pick but its SF which means 29 or lower and NO and DEN has allready worked out the trade NO will not deal peyton to a NFC Team my guess is PaytonI went back and looked at first post where I was ballpark thinking 5 openings

So Wink gets passed over again?Den it's going to be Harbaugh or Payton yes on peyton denver will have to give up ther first round pick but its SF which means 29 or lower and NO and DEN has allready worked out the trade NO will not deal peyton to a NFC Team my guess is Payton
Car wilies or someone like Flores
Indy Saturday is the fav unlees harbaugh jumps in
Zona they like young coachers or i wouild throw harbaugh in there i think V Joseph shouild get a look here got a raw deal in den was great on hard knocks
Hou Gannon philly DC or mayo
I would also think Ryans from SF has to be a strong candidate for an opening.So Wink gets passed over again?
I still don't see how McVay stays. He won his SB. He's going to get a bag from a Network (Amazon?) and go there for a year or two then pick a better situation as the Rams spend 10 years rebuilding.I went back and looked at first post where I was ballpark thinking 5 openings

True, add him to the list. I guess job desirability is the next thing to think about.I still don't see how McVay stays. He won his SB. He's going to get a bag from a Network (Amazon?) and go there for a year or two then pick a better situation as the Rams spend 10 years rebuilding.
Because he might not think it is a 10 year rebuild and doesn't want to leave after a disappointing season. He reportedly has an excellent relationship with Snead and ownership. Not saying he definitely stays and most reports are that he likely leaves but it is pretty easy to see how he may decide to stay.I still don't see how McVay stays. He won his SB. He's going to get a bag from a Network (Amazon?) and go there for a year or two then pick a better situation as the Rams spend 10 years rebuilding.
I agree. Saw him in a documentary recently, but for the life of me, I can't remember what documentary. He seemed like a prime candidate for early burn out, based on his personality. Not a good look though, bailing when the ship is sinking (has sunk?). Maybe he gives it another year to go out on a higher point than this year.I still don't see how McVay stays. He won his SB.

The “look” is fine. The team mortgaged their relative future to go for it, and he brought the Rams a championship. If he’s burnt out or just wants to give broadcasting a shot, he’s earned that right, without controversyI agree.

Right. By way of analogy, there hasn’t been any loud chatter that Sean Payton abandoned the Saints despite having walked away with their having no good QB succession plan for Brees, major cap issues and accompanying talent attrition.The “look” is fine. The team mortgaged their relative future to go for it, and he brought the Rams a championship. If he’s burnt out or just wants to give broadcasting a shot, he’s earned that right, without controversy
He’s a media darling and will also be part of that media. Plus the NFL fan base in LA isn’t exactly all that demanding. I think he’ll stay shiny for a while. If he does leave, I will be interested to see his second act as a coach when/if that happens. Imagine him taking over for Reid in KC if he retires or something. That would be terrifying.The “look” is fine. The team mortgaged their relative future to go for it, and he brought the Rams a championship.

Liam Coen, come on back to the commonwealth.Jim Murray just said in his updates that McVay has given permission to his entire staff the ability to go seek other job opportunities....certainly doesn't sound like a guy who plans on sticking around
An OC that has to work with Carson Wentz should be immune from firing.Scott Turner out as OC in Washington.
I don’t know the answer on your contract term question. Contract terms for coaches could run through the duration of the league year, which has a mid-March anniversary; that’s how player contracts generally work. Alternatively, the term could run through the duration of the NFL season (the Super Bowl) or the team’s season (the last game). It’s a great question I’ve not seen answered squarely.How do these coaching contracts work in term of is it a 5 year deal is "5 years coaching the team" vs "five years on the calendar"?
I believe when Lackey was rumored to sit out for a season because of the structure of his contract, we found out that if he sat out for a year he would still be under our control for the following year. Is it similar with NFL coaches?
Yeah, I think Houston will probably do this. This rule is the classic good intentions/bad execution example.Who will be the first coach hired?
Which team will make the first mockery of the Rooney Rule?
Which coach will be hired to make everyone say "that retread??"
Which coach will be hired to make everyone say "when will teams learn that you need experience??"
I mean, let's be honest, DEN worked out a deal for Sean Payton in advance, maybe he says no and it falls through, but that tells me they picked their (white) coach before they even requested a single interview from a minority candidate.Yeah, I think Houston will probably do this. This rule is the classic good intentions/bad execution example.
