I agree. Isn’t it considered kind of taboo to hire a head coach during the actual lead up to the Big Game? Sunday would be perfect as the new coach could make the rounds during bowl week, but also not create a distraction. The Cards hiring a head coach next Wednesday or Thursday would be a bad look as it would take away from the Super Bowl lead up.
yep
What price? Where's the list of coaches saying no to AZ? Bienemy in 2018? Where's he still at? Ryans this year? Who else did he turn down, because he was Houston or bust? Dan Quinn? Maybe, maybe not. Again, all of the remaining and new candidates aren't cancelling anything with AZ, even when they are one of just 2 left to play with.
I can answer that for you. There are only 32 HC jobs. If you get an interview offer 90% of people take it. That said, if, like Payton, you get more than one offer you get to make a choice. Payton didn’t choose the Cards. For some, like Quinn, you made decide the offer is so bad you just return to your previous spot. Frankly, I would say Pauline has built his reputation for about 30+ years in the business being used by multiple teams. That makes him pretty invulnerable to sarcasm. Of course maybe it was aimed at me. Feel free to attack me. These days I’m little more than a hobbyist. I think you’ll find Tony is out of your league. As Brit has suggested, I suggest you Google Tony. There are a few with that name so be careful. You will see how many people trust his opinion based on all the groups that have solicited his wisdom. There are few in this business who have more standing. I suggest you pick easier targets.
Odegard who rarely says anything nice about the Cards, since being fired?
the scarcity of jobs explains both interviewing AND accepting
He needs his McAfee to get his story out there, a softie who asks sympathetic questions and listens quietly like a 6-year-old schoolgirl.
Both can be correct

Yes please! That would get us a compensatory pick if they do it before we fire him.
This was actually very interesting. Take the name out of it and the thoughts expressed still have meaning.By their count Pauline bats about 20% on his rumors. He got Kyler to the Cards right though!

Do you get a compensatory pick for a lateral move?
dan quinn.....he decides to stay in dallas,...and suddenly Kellen Moore says screw this **** and bails for the chargers after like 15 years in dallas.
Moore was on the street for like 38 seconds before the Chargers snapped him up.
And if Quinn truly turned AZ down (I believe he said no to other teams, too) for a chance to take over in Dallas, can you blame him? That's not a shot at Murray, it's a coach making a decision to choose a team/owner who doesn't hire and fire on a whim. He's been known to keep a heach coach well beyond what the fans and media think...basically he's very loyal to those who are loyal to him.
Good question. I thought the only thing that mattered was that they got poached.
Aaron and Kevin Murray are a couple of Texas A&M legends. Probably bonded over that.
