Dulac was wrong. Flores isn't getting a second interview. He and McCarthy are getting their first interviews done in-person since they know them so well.

These aren't exactly hot names. MM got a second interview with the Titans but had NO OTHER INTEREST. Flores had a token interview with the Ravens and the Commanders interviewed him for DC LOL

And the Vikes want to retain him from what they’ve said

I'm thankful that these are first in person interviews...
Second in person means it's close.

Please bring in the Kubiaks and hear them speak about football...
Even if it means having a translator in the room for the Rooneys

Shula or Minter would be a Godsend compared to MM or Flores. Maybe Rooney is just fcking with us LOL

The thing I can't quite understand is why Klay and not Klint? No one else but the Raiders have even looked at Klay. Do we think he'll be the cheaper of the Kubiaks? Or, is Klay actually the better leader?

I think what Klint of Seattle has done has been more of his work than what Klay has done with Shanahan being the master mind.

And knowing Mike McDonald was a defensive guy so Klint is most instrumental in what Seattle is doing on O

Tho K & K are cut from the same cloth.

Glad to be wrong, but please, no.

They also decide before interviewing Klint, would be almost criminal.
No decent offensive coach wants any part of the Rooneys or Pittsburgh
I completely disagree. This is the premier coaching spot in all of sports. Where are you going to get the security and support you do here? There's 55 years of proof of that. Needing to tweak or even rebuild the roster won't scare away any offensive mind worth a damn. The Kubiaks got a hell of a lot out of two QBs that were run out of town by more than one team. Their confidence in winning with the Steelers will not be a problem.
I think that’s a myth

Smallest scouting dept. Worst field by far. Meddling from ownership at every turn. Unwillingness to spend $$$. Etc etc etc

Worst of all the Steelers are the ONLY team in the NFL completely committed to a brand indentity. And it’s a brand identity that comes with A LOT of built in nonsense


Then there is the fanbase

Easily one of the worst in the NFL for several reasons


I could go on and on

The Rooneys are a huge problem

The fans are a problem

And let’s face it….unless a candidate has a hookers and blow problem they are probably already at something close to 10M + under management

Do you really wanna live in Pittsburgh ??

Why haven't they interviewed a woman if they are so committed to equality?

Whose this Rams DC... lol
Doing a great job of shutting down Loveland.
Keeping Williams numbers down in second half.
And they have been phenomenal on 3rd and 4th and shorts..

You laugh, but give it enough time and there will definitely be a push to make women the head coaches of sports team to include in the NFL. We've already seen some assistants or at least one in the last few years with the usual NFL propaganda telling us how great this is.

Of course they can wait. MM and Flores are going nowhere hahaha Plenty of time to wait for Shula, Scheelhaase, or Klint (if they ever invite him for an interview).

You know I really do despise that the league allows the interviews during the post-season. It's always punished the successful teams to help out or appease the shit bag teams struggling. Just delay any hires or any of this bullshit until after the Super Bowl so there's no advantage for anyone and teams succeeding don't have their guys trying to multi-task and prepare for the biggest job interviews of their life along with the opportunities their teams worked for all season long.

Not as bad as the shit the NCAA allows, but still just a shitty way of doing business.

Anthony Weaver Head Scratcher

Apparently, he's being called to Pittsburgh for an in-person interview. This would be his 2nd. He's a nice guy and intense and he talks about "violent football" and hitting hard. But his defenses haven't looked all that special to me. He almost sounds like Tomlin when he talks about defense. You just have to "stick your head" in there. I'm going to have to do more digging on the guy, but this is a head scratcher for me and doesn't look like the kind of guy who is ready to go up against the elite play callers of this league.

I know nothing about this guy, so when I read that he was on the Steelers interview list, I googled him. The first photo that popped up, he was wearing aviators. NO THANKS!!!

Re: Weaver

I don't think he's in contention seriously anywhere else. Harbaugh MAY want him as a DC in NY with the Giants. But that's about it. No need to rush.

He is a CEO type of coach but might be too old for the Rooneys :-)

Again, I don't get it. Been reading Dolphins forums and they are at best lukewarm on the guy. Some praise his leadership and ability to get the team to play physical. Others say that he is NOT CREATIVE at all and just plays soft zones that are shredded. (Even Rodgers completed 80% of his passes against them.). Phins fans would rather have Flores than Weaver.
