I’m not enthusiastic that they’re that enthusiastic about Kafka.

Agreed. The Giants lost more games than the Saints this year. If you want to go for an offensive coach, fine. But for the love of football take someone from a good team.

Kafka was with the Chiefs before the Giants and wasn't running his offense in NY

Word is, he wants to go somewhere where he can run his own offense.

He's also known for developing QBs.

By and large, Joe Brady called a great game last night. If he's got the gravitas to be a head coach, I'd be okay with the hire.

I'm not crossing anyone off my list because of one game.

You can't hire someone who doesn't want the job. I wonder if some of these guys are using the Saints interview as leverage.

NFL is a small world. Everyone has worked with someone at another organization and does the professional thing by interviewing.

McCarthy just feels like a nothing appointment
The easy choice but a coach on the back end of his career. He will get you respectable but I dont see the new ideas, younger energy to win championships
