You'd most likely be mistaken, my friend.

We could put ourselves in a really weird situation of we hire Nussmeir as OC. We are definitely seen as a team that could be drafting a QB in the first round in 2026. Doug's son is a top QB in that draft but not the obvious top QB. Carr is old and banged up so we need a young option sooner or later but 2025 is not a good QB draft year. So what happens if we have to scout our OC's son and decide whether to pass on him or draft him higher than others would, and what if we have to decide whether he is worth trading up or risking trading back? Then what is we draft him and he is perceived as being treated differently. Or what if we draft him and he is a great QB but we have to fire his dad because of offensive coaching miscues. It would all be a very weird complicated situation. I know coaches have coached their sons before but I dont think there has been a situation quite like this where it could be with a high value first round QB and the high stakes of the top NFL draft picks.

I guess if Nuss is the best candidate we should hire him but I hope we dont get in this whole mess with having to figure out all those conflicts.

I'm okay with bringing Haslett's progeny onboard. Jim had his faults, but Dennis Allen has made him look like Tom Landry.

Very interesting article. I can see it happening but we won't be able to sign anyone but league minimum players in free agency. We're rolling with Rattler who had seven chances to win last year. Buckle up. It's going to be a roller coaster of a ride next year.
