DCOrange 1,830 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I get the idea of having a separate thread for the Jets since they're a division rival, but figured we could maybe just have one thread to discuss the other job openings around the league? Some updates this morning: Chicago Bears announced they're bringing Matt Nagy and Ryan Pace back for another season. Philadelphia Eagles will be interviewing former Patriots LB and current LB Coach Jerod Mayo for their HC opening. So far, the candidates that we know Philly is pursuing are Mayo, Saleh (though it sounds like he's likely headed to the Jets), Todd Bowles, Arthur Smith, and Lincoln Riley. As of last night, there was a "growing sense" that Urban Meyer would accept the Jaguars coaching job, but this morning, it was reported that the Chargers are continuing to look into Meyer for themselves. 1 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheFunPolice 1,852 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Bears announce they are retaining Nagy for another 8-10 games. Some of these teams are just delaying the inevitable, although if I was an Eagles an I would be depressed at that list of names. Also, just in general, there doesn't seem to be a lot of great choices out there. Saleh, Bienemy, Daboll. Other than that, lots of "meh" choices, or just plain depressing ones. Glad we are where we are! 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NoHuddleKelly12 4,567 Posted Wednesday at 07:04 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 07:04 PM Anything else on Pederson yet? Am curious if he will be forced to drop down to coordinator for a season or just jump straight to the next HC gig like Rex Ryan did? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MJS 8,090 Posted Wednesday at 07:14 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 07:14 PM If you have to announce that you are sticking with your head coach and GM, that's a bad sign. 4 6 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its their security blanket up front. Usually 4-5 years. Rex had 5 years and got paid. Salary is in the $5-6 million range. So, Pederson has no problem taking a year off and getting paid. I would do the same btw. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dpberr 857 Posted Wednesday at 07:28 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 07:28 PM Urban Meyer is going to pull a Bobby Petrino on Jacksonville if they are foolish enough to hire him. I don't know what Chicago sees in keeping Nagy/Pace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Houston's #1 Bills Fan 492 Posted Wednesday at 10:59 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 10:59 PM Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Eagles will need a HC and a defensive coordinator with Schwartz taking time off. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YoloinOhio 50,732 Posted Wednesday at 11:05 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:05 PM I think this makes sense - a separate thread for Jets, one for Daboll, one for Frazier, and then one for the rest of the openings As a note on urban. I’m 99.9% sure that report today is agent driven and while the two sides may have talked, I believe it was his side that initiated the conversation and that because the chargers are focused elsewhere, Urban’s agent is using this as leverage in negotiations with the jags. I do not think the chargers have real interest in urban. Fwiw. 3 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

John from Riverside 7,450 Posted Wednesday at 11:30 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:30 PM Would be absolutely shocked if Debol doesnt go to the chargers.....but def take it if he doesnt.....keeping the band together would be a good thing Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some of these coaches go back to college football for a year or two while on NFL payroll. This gives them first hand knowledge of current college football techniques.

(Apparently some kind of sexual misconduct). Woahboy. This stuff I assume you mean. I had no idea. On the one hand, it's all actions 18 years ago. I believe that people grow and change and should be allowed a chance to put mistakes behind them On the other hand, NFL teams can find HC candidates who look qualified, and who DON'T have all that in their past. Bieniemy is 51 years old now. He was 30-33 when the more recent of these events took place, not a kid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
