Saints to interview Mike McCarthy in middle of this week, 1/26-2/1 per Pelissero [Underhill: McCarthy would have to be the current favorite]

I think you share the sentiment of the majority of us. It’s not that McCarthy is “bad”, but he has had almost 20 years worth of opportunities with much better situations and largely underachieved.

I would hope that most of us can agree that Rodgers and Dak are better QBs than Carr. I would hope we all agree that Dallas’ young/prime talent on defense is much better than our aging talent on defense.

I just don’t know why we would think he can accomplish more in New Orleans than he did in GB/Dallas, and he’s only won 1 playoff game in his entire tenure as the Cowboys HC. It seems like settling to hire McCarthy.

It's clearly your opinion, but I don't think that's the opinion of the majority of us. I think the majority of us think McCarthy would be a kind of boring hire but he's also a guy that has had a huge amount of success in the NFL as a HC and would still be a good choice. And if McCarthy only does what he did in GB and Dallas, I don't know how we could have an issue with the hire. Even what he has done in the last 4 years in Dallas is vastly better than what we have done in the last 4 years.

And if Dak is better than Carr, it's not by much.
