Not sure if this means anything about his real status there, two more assistant coaches were hired this week to his UNC staff.

Hasn't been the hot commodity he was last year.

His dad is also a former Cowboy assistant under Jimmy.

I guess McCarthy didnt lock down that job yesterday after all.

Dallas media is such a bunch of fucking pussies. They were all pissing their pants throwing a hissy fit about "poor McCarthy" and several of them made it sound like the Bears would back up the Brinks truck while he was there.

Bobby Belt says he is hearing Saleh has a legit shot at the HC spot here.

No trade clause doesn't mean trade is impossible, it means Tomlin has yea or nay on any possible deal.
Tomlin publicly announced this week "don't bother" when trying to trade for him.

But again, if Fat Mike is "their guy" why are they out there inquiring about trading for another Mike.

Oh yeah I agree on the Fat Mike part. Tomlin actually said something like "don't waste your time" which is pretty direct.

I can't say that it's made any real difference over the years but I have long been a proponent of the league ending all this assistants interviewing during playoff nonsense.

Nobody can convince me that it isn't at least SOME sort of a distraction. Time has to go into prep for these and if I were an owner and HC I'm pretty PO'd that a guy on my payroll is taking time to sell someone else on hiring him as a HC elsewhere. 100% focus should always be on the team you work for and doing everything you can to help that team win.

This is an easy fucking fix and has been forever. Just put a rule in place that says no coaching changes and interviews can take place until AFTER the Super Bowl. Then everybody is on the same playing field. Nobody is missing out on a potential job and no teams have to sit there and wonder if their coaches are completely focused on the task at hand.

It's complete bullshit. There's no legitimate reason it shouldnt be set up this way.

So does JJ announce Helen Moore as our new head coach before the Philly game tonight? Or does he wait until after they lose today to announce it?

I hope he announces it right before Philly takes the field just to fuck with them.

Why? Because Phuck Philly Phorever!

This is the only logical solution, which is exactly why it hasn’t been, and will never be implemented.
