RVAskins Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I'm having patience with all this. To me, this isn't as stressful and unsettling as it was when we were waiting for word that the previous owner sold the team. This is a walk in the park compared to that. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtisp5286 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 So, after tonight they will have interviewed five candidates for the head of football ops job in person. Adam Peters - Assistant GM, 49ers Ian Cunningham - Assistant GM, Bears Alec Halaby - Assistant GM, Eagles Glenn Cook - Assistant GM, Browns Mike Borgonzi - Assistant GM, Chiefs As far as we know, that is everyone that they plan on interviewing. Since we have been told that they intend to move fast, I would assume that they will be making an offer to someone either tonight, or tomorrow morning. We should get a hire before Saturday I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazedSkinsfan Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I think I'm like everyone else here and would say Peter's is at the top of my list, but if we strike out with him that's still a solid list of candidates and I'd be happy with any of them. Also just reading through the tea leaves of that article it sounds like Mayhew and Hurney is done once we get our guy/guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Interesting note there about the exact format of these first round of interviews. Don’t personally have a takeaway about it other than it’s an interesting detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Harris want's to leave the decision of Mayhew and Hurney up to the next HOFO. He is the anti previous owner and doesn't want to come off as meddling. I like his style. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s really a firing. Carroll has said this parting was more on the team. The advising gig is just to save face but in reality the team told him, he’s done coaching.

Hopefully we hear by Friday of a hire and then onto the HCs after the playoff games this weekend. I'm with you there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RVAskins Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 One thing I'm looking for in a HOFO/GM is not only being a good draft evaluator but someone who excels at choosing the right free agents. That's an art that has been lost on the Commanders for a very long time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 I got a notification today that the commanders are going to focus on the defensive side of the ball and/or Harbaugh. Going to guess that notification was non sense. It’s also the polar opposite of what should be done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, 3 coaches in the SB era. Knoll 1969-1991 Cowher 1992-2006 Tomlin 2006-2024 Amazingly, Cowher is the shortest tenure at 14 seasons. You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Tomlin while not ever having a losing season hasn’t won a playoff game since 2016. It’s time for his Steelers tenure to end. Take a year off and enter the 25 coaching market. If he leaves, that’s most likely what will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I will be pissed watching OC's get poached under him and having no offensive continuity because of it. Look at the Texans right now. They are going to lose the guy who got their rookie qb to the playoffs. They are going to lose him AFTER ONE SEASON. Lets see what that does to Stroud next year.

Actually gonna change it think Slowik might be the guy, instead only because he may have some relation with Peters when he was in SF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like I'm in the minority on this, but with all these strong, proven head coaching candidates on the market (e.g. Harbaugh, Vrabel), I'd prefer we hire one of them over Ben Johnson. Three year ago the Falcons hired THE red hot OC in Arthur Smith. He interviewed everywhere. They fired him three days ago. You never know what you're getting when promoting coordinators.
