Shower Thought: HC Interviewing

[davos]

A bit reactionary but something random to consider--

We have a new owner where people are a bit unsure of his vision/how involved he'll be, a once-fired then returned GM who's been here since the 90s yet no rings, and complete uncertainty on both sides of the ball yet we're negotiating contracts prior to getting a new staff and scheme in place. 

I think the people we're interviewing have more questions for us than we to them.  That is a problem. 

Can anyone shed any light on how chaotic things seem?

I thought we would at least have a new coach before we started negotiating new contracts to feed ideas off of each other to decide what they were gonna do going forward. I am at a complete and total loss about what the hell is going on. Honestly, this is extremely unprofessional of Tepper. This is busch league bullshit.

It’s abundantly clear a coach doesn’t matter at this point. It’s all hurney’s team. 

What coach wants to come in when you don’t have input and control of who you put on the field?

Tepper should just make Hurney GM/HC this year to show the world what a conman Hurney actually is.

I agree to an extent.  I try not to be an unrelenting as$hat about things one way or another but man, the means and methods of retooling this franchise are VERY suspect.  I want to see the positive right now but Tepper seems to be overextending himself, minimal people around him with Hurney being one of them.  This has got me legit ticked off as a fan for the first time since we were refusing to find an adequate Delhomme heir.

Maybe we are the "least attractive opening" in the NFL HC circle. Best we can hope for is up and comer that wants to make a name for himself and has the ability to do so as a HC.

No I get it and I’ve been one of the people  who has said Marty is gonna stay until after this draft. I get it, we have to have somebody running the rest of the season and who has been out in the field with scouts to college games and running the draft. It’s not ideal but I got it. But like what is this? We’re gonna sign 3 extensions/new contracts who are gonna get MAJOR money when we don’t even have a coach to see what he thinks? This is amateur hour, my dude.

It mean we won't have to worry about the playoffs the rest of my 30s. I'm not sure why we just didn't keep Rivera if we were going to do this. It would end up in the same results. I can tell you 100% Josh McDaniels and Greg Roman are not coming to this mess.

Particularly when we're looking at offensive minds as each of those guys likely has different connections to potential DCs around the league so their approaches may vary wildly between let's say McCarthy's guy vs. McDaniels vs. Rhule.  It's just a few guys but it's about means and methods and we're really not making sense from an outsiders' perspective. Hell, probably from some on the inside as well.

Yeah the only thing I can think of is that McCarthy is our guy (he’s interviewed twice already) and they’ve discussed it. But that just seems weird in general based on what we know about Tepper asking to interview other legitimate candidates. Anyway, this is looking really suspect. This is what really bad organizations do.

Sir, you hit the jack pot! I commend you for that post alone. Head coach candidates are actually the ones conducting the interviews.

Sooooo, there's still a chance?!?
