The chance to get a top tier HC has come and gone

My theory - because word is out on him. Maybe not necessarily that he’s going to New Orleans, but that he’s not taking interviews with the teams with open jobs.

There is no way a guy with his credentials would be getting absolutely no play whatsoever from anyone otherwise IMO.

So much goes on behind the scenes, and there was even an article with sources claiming all the way back in early January that he was angling his way out of Dallas specifically for the New Orleans job.

I'm not so sure about that. If that's the case, we're not talking about a closely guarded secret. If all the other franchises that need a head coach know it, then it surely would've been leaked by now and there would be articles left and right, like a Jags beat writer reporting the Jags aren't pursuing because he's expected to sign with NO.

But there are no rumors. There is no speculation. Theres no mention as to why these clubs aren't interviewing him or even requesting to interview him and I can't even find articles where journalists ask the question.

Theres more here then what we know of. It may just be as simple as they not wanting him. But It's hard to imagine that there is some league secret that every franchise knows and everyone is staying quiet and journalists just happen to not even be asking the question.

Here's a bleacher report where Dianna Russini discusses it. https://bleacherreport.com/articles...or-mike-mccarthy-after-bears-hire-ben-johnson

"Yeah, I think this would be it for Mike McCarthy," Russini reported when co-host and ex-NFL quarterback Chase Daniel asked if New Orleans would be the "only landing spot" left for the ex-Dallas Cowboys head coach.
"I don't get the sense that the [Jacksonville Jaguars] or [New York Jets] are going to be bringing him in for an interview, so we'll see if this is going to be the right fit and the right opportunity for him and then."

It sounds more like no one is interested.

I still can't shake this feeling that we're going to settle with Rizzi. Even if MM and Joe Brady are available wanting the job.
