It's being reported that Bill Cowher is interested in the Jets HC position next season and that's with Gase not even fired yet. It that's the case, then that means he is ready to come back. The Bolts need to find a way to get him. He is exactly what this team needs. My memory is when Cowher ended in Pittsburgh he had daughters in college doing college basketball. His departed wife was a pro basketball player. He wanted time with them and moved to North Carolina. His own immediate family still lives in Pitt where he was born and raised. If the Jets are the rumor, it indicates his wanting to stay on the east coast. I have a big Freak hunch the Spanos will go after a name coach this time. No more wannabe head coaches. If Cowher is on the market, I would throw the kitchen sink at him. Offer him the GM and HC slots, and millions. Lets not just let Andy Reid get signed by KC while we do nothing about it again. They have to.

Start at the 5:00min mark... Love me some UM... But that also tells me he likely would not come here, at least under this ownership.

Yeah “perfect situation” doesn’t exactly describe Spanos and the Chargers. Very strong endorsement of Brian Kelly That was my takeaway as well. ‘Perfect may not exist, and if it does, great, if not, no big; but go hire Brian Kelly, he is a guy you want’.

My take:
Health issues will keep him away permanently.
Set the bar really high, and then find people that want to try and raise it even higher.
The Chargers and Spanos are clueless when it comes to a winning culture.

He’s negotiating Maybe so, but one question I would ask him in any potential interview to be HC is: What happens to the club if during the season your health prevents you from coaching?

In other threads there has been mention by AF or Lightsout I think, that the HC hiring is more important than the draft slot, or actual drafted player in round 1. I could not agree more, and I do not have a ton of confidence the choice will be solid. I am hopeful but not confident.
Please choose a HC that is creative with the talent on his roster, as even the worst player is pretty talented.

A good head coach once said: If you have great players and a great scheme, but your team is performing poorly: then you have a bad scheme.

It would suggest to not hire a HC based off of their preferred scheme, which I endorse completely. Give me that HC capable of building a scheme based off of the talent on the roster.

Right. I want the leader who can build strategies and hack the rules tactically.

Yes, but it also reflects the ability to adapt therein.

Now that the Jets just gave Trevor Lawrence to Jacksonville , I can't see any other QB worth the #2 pick so I can see them being willing to trade down to fill some holes. So maybe we can move up and get Penei Sewell before the Bengals can draft him at 3.
