Joe Brady withdraws from Saints HC search

Doug B said
Brady is 35 years old. He can put up three or four more years of skins on the wall and still be the wunderkind.

Coming to New Orleans could have a huge upside for a guy like Brady. You turn it around here, you're a legend. But -- to be frank -- the chances that it wouldn't work out with the Saints are high enough that he just doesn't need to roll the dice right now. Imagine being 37 or 38 and washing out as an NFL head coach. Josh McDaniels did that and had to wait 12 more years for his next opportunity.

This is a very reasonable take....unfortunately.....

I'm not sure this is something to get out of shape over. Brady was my first choice, but I think McCarthy is the safest bet. You get a coach who is a winner, experienced and knows how to build a team.

Now if MM drops out, then I'd be concerned.

I'm not terribly worried yet.

Yup, I feel exactly the same, I think they better be prepared to offer MM likely more than what he is worth.....

Or maybe Brady does not interview well and does not want to be passed over by 3 teams this cycle

Maybe you missed the part where Brady withdrew himself from consideration, and yes, it has to be because he suddenly realized he doesn't interview to good (or something) but please, before I say continue to spread BS about him, do you have a source for your claim above?
