Candidates

Mike McCarthy could be in line if GB moves on

John DeFilippo

Eric Beiniemy should also be considered

[The Gipper]

They will probably look for the next Sean McVay.

and look for Woody...or others to say   Jim Harbaugh.

But they are saying "no retreads" on radio.  But I don't know.

Bienemy is in KC correct?

Would be an interesting choice.    Young guy which is the direction that we need to go.

No retreads.  God no... find the new young hungry coach.     Jim Harbaugh should stay in ichigan.    I dont' want him in Cleveland. 

[LondonBrown]

Bringing Flip back is interesting

[calfoxwc]

NO.

My guess is continuity.

Al Saunders. Interim Head Coach.  That's what I would do.

Correct. He is KC's Offensive Coordinator

Saunders for the rest of the year.   He's not the long term option which is why he's perfect to finish off the season.   He knows he isn't the long term coach but the team will keep him on somewhere in the organization and he can help find the new coach.  Haley and Williams are coaching for their future jobs for the rest of the season and neither might be able to save themselves depending on who the new coach is.

Saunders is the interim HC.  That has been announced.  We are talking about who will take over for next year and beyond.  Sauders will NOT be that guy.

Bruce Arians

He is about as old as  Saunders,  and with health problems.   Isn't that why he quit AZ?

Checking....Yea, he is as old as me.....66.

[D Bone]

Enough with the hazbeens / neverwazzes.....  Hire the young unknown RIGHT guy.  

[broganreynik]

I’m all for Lincoln Riley. He’s my number one with a bullet.

Other college coaches I’d consider: Matt Campbell, David Shaw, James Franklin. Maybe Chris Petersen, but coaching under Haslam could push him off the wagon.

I would be bummed if it’s anyone but Riley though.

[CLEVELANDwantsPLAYOFFS]

Jim Harbaugh’s name just popped up.... as a low radar thing. But still...

[Mark O]

David Shaw from Stanford is another name to watch.

[flyingfooldoug]

This gives Dorsey a head start and plenty of time to hand pick his coaching staff. And listening to some of the local feedback, it’s possible that the haslams have finally seen the light and are going to let the coaches be picked by his GM. I hadn’t considered Saunders as interim coach before but I like it. Knows the game and what he’s doing. Can see crap without checking the “tape”
