The Coaching Carousel has begun

[Mr. Scot]

Word was that Rex Ryan wanted Marc Trestman as his OC.  Now there's talk that it'll be Greg Roman.

[magnus]

both might be better than Schottenheimer or Mornhinweg. 

[KendrickPanther]

I don't know that Atlanta was ever offered, but Rex, you done messed up. This is classic Rex, he picks the team with the good defense where he can compete with the Patriots and bury the Jets.

 

Going to ATL would have been smart. Franchise QB, star wide receiver. He could have focused on building the D. We dodged a bullet.

Word is Rex wanted more control than ALT was willing to give. Dimitrov too involved.

I'm just wondering who the hell they're going to find to QB next year in Buffalo.  

 

QB-lite draft and the FA market is scarce.  The FAs may be worse than the draft class.  

 

I can maybe see Sean Mannion end up the QB2 with them signing Matt Moore or Case Keenum as a stop gap.  Someone will take a stab at Tyrod starting somewhere...could be there but I don't see a mobile QB happening in Buffalo.   

[Mr. Scot]

Well, wherever the carousel spins, Gary Kubiak won't be part of it.

 

He's turning down all interviews to stay with the Ravens.

[Snake]

I feel like good coaches are going to avoid ATL. Way too high of expectations with a bad GM.

[Boltergeist]

So according to a report out of Pittsburgh, Dick LeBeau has talked with Bruce Arians about joining the Cards staff and also to commiserate about how shitty their exits from the Steelers were handled. 

[davos]

So per rumblings and rumors:

 

Del Rio - Oakland

Gase - San Francisco 

Quinn- NYJ?

Bowles - ATL or NYJ?

Austin- ATL?

Fox - Chicago?

 

Done:

 

Ryan-Bills

 

One thing is for sure: The NYJ have no idea what they're doing.  

[Mr. Scot]

Denver wants to interviiew Dan Quinn.

[davos]

That 2nd Gase meeting should be going on right about now or in the next few hours in SF.  

[davos]

The Foxtree could be spreading like poison sumac:

 

Raiders (Del Rio), 49ers (Gase), Chargers (McCoy), Bears (Fox?) 

[carpanfan96]

So per rumblings and rumors:

 

Del Rio - Oakland

Gase - San Francisco 

Quinn- NYJ?

Bowles - ATL or NYJ?

Austin- ATL?

Fox - Chicago?

 

Done:

 

Ryan-Bills

 

One thing is for sure: The NYJ have no idea what they're doing.  

 

 

Pretty much.... I think Del Rio to Oakland, Gase to San Fran and Fox to Chicago are locks or as close to it as you can get in this crazy off season. 

 

 

That leaves the Jets, Falcons and Bronco's fighting over Quinn....one Loser settles for Bowles or someone else and the other takes the gamble on Austin. 

[carpanfan96]

Going  to post the massive amount of Fox to Chicago news here.

It would make sense, for multiple reasons.  First, former Giants G.M. Ernie Accorsi is consulting with the Bears.  Accorsi and Fox worked together in New York, when Jim Fassel served as head coach and Fox worked as defensive coordinator.

Second, new Bears G.M. Ryan Pace spent plenty of time in the NFC South when Fox worked as head coach of the Panthers.  Pace surely has formed an opinion about Fox.  If it’s favorable, and in comparison of the other candidates available in the current cycle, Fox could be the best choice.
