Saints will interview Mike McCarthy in person during this week, Jan. 20-Jan. 25 [Underhill: McCarthy would have to be the current favorite]

Or that Brady just is not ready. He jumped at the Car OC job right after the LSU natty. He didn't even get some play calling experience when he bombs he takes a job being a QB coach a position he never played and coaching an already elite QB. Then when Dorsey get canned to appease the folks that wanted McDermott's head naturally they promote the QB coach. Brady's tweaks for Allen? Run the ball more

Brady seems to put the cart before the horse. He takes the promotion before he gains enough experience to handle the job at hand. My guess is he'll do the same thing with the HC position, strike while the iron is hot and not worry if the iron is hot enough to be a success

Agreed. I think he could very well be brilliant and I don’t know whether or not he’s ready at this stage maturity/leadership wise, but as each hiring cycle passes without him being hired despite his on-paper accomplishments tells me he’s possibly not.

We have to trust that the guys doing the interviewing are evaluating that. If I am interviewing someone for a HC, I know I would be.

I would literally be wanting the guy I am interviewing to be imposing in that setting and to even make ME feel somewhat small and like I am being led to a degree, and I am not sure if Brady is that guy.

I mean, people made fun of DA’s speeches the last few years…what if we are sensing that one of the fan favorite candidates like Brady would have the same delivery, and we have placed a premium on fixing that?

What if we have contacted coaches he’s coached with and players he’s coached and have come away not impressed with what they had to say, even if they didn’t even trash him.

We just don’t know.
