Those teams are on bye. They can't interview coaches right now for the teams that are playing next weekend.

I hope Flores gets this job or any head coaching job. He grew up in Brownsville, Brooklyn. If you can survive Brownsville, you can survive ANYTHING.

I don't know him personally but I know a couple of his friends. It's always good to see friends or friends of friends make it big time.

Now we just need to set up an interview with the other Pats coordinator.

I heard we just asked to interview Cowher

LOL!! I almost spit out my coffee!

Hallelujah happened a season too late. Also, he never should have been hired. He sucked ass as a defensive coordinator. Be smarter this time Johnny E.

Who do you want them to interview?

Based on what?

Honestly- some QB coach or OC who I'm not that familiar with because they are young, hungry and innovative... Someone like Matt LaFleur from TN - someone who fits the McVay/Nagy profile.

The first two names we heard about were a one-year defensive coordinator for the Patriots, as if that were even a viable option... And an o-lineman from the 80s who has interviewed for 1000 HC positions in the NFL and then dialed the clock back 25 years when he was running the Titans and turned them into a run-first team with Marcus Mariota as the QB.

I realize I'm overreacting - but VJ was so bad, and we've been waiting for over a year to begin this process - and we come out of the gates with these two clowns?

Like a young hungry coordinator without previous head coaching experience.

Yeah just don't pick the fraud again. Prior HC experience is overrated in this league - especially with all the rule changes... Need someone to challenge conventional wisdom.

Don’t know much about the pats guy but munchak is HOF OL and one of the most respected coaches in the league. Not sure that makes him right fit here but it’s not like they are swinging on another VJ with him. BTW - if you watch Tenn play running the ball with Mariotta is the only way to do it. Look how Vrabel got them back in it this year. Running mariotta and crushing people with D Henry. Mariotta is not a passer to think otherwise is silly.

Hallelujah!! However, with Elway still making the call, I'm not very hopeful that the next coach will be any different. Elway is a control freak who will only hire a coach who's a "yes man," and he's part of the problem to begin with.

If not for Manning, Elway's track record would be much different.

Munchak would be a return to John Fox ball. So would Mike McCarthy. So would Vic Fangio. The NFL has a different style of play than they came up with. They're all good coaches but I think if you're trying to chart a new course and breathe some life into a franchise, they are all wrong for the job.

I know nothing about Flores other than he's a Belichick assistant and therefore I'm not interested.

Good luck, John Elway. Find the Broncos a winning HC. TIA.
