Mike McCarthy didn’t garner the interest from Saints that he anticipated and taking a year off; McCarthy backs out as a result of Moore being in lead

Kafka said all of the right things in his Senior Bown interivew. Mickey knows he has a fall back plan. Kafka will take the job if he misses on Moore. Of course Rizzi would too.

Until then, the game of musical chairs continues. Only 3 chairs left with 4 candidates circling. Who withdraws next? I'd think Weaver will withdraw. I could be wrong, but he appears to be the Rooney rule candidate and they didn't want to be obvious and eliminate him too soon. I can also see Rizzi taking a STC job somewhere as the Saints know they have Kafka if they can't get Moore. That would be Rizzi's way of signaling that the Saints have made a decision and it's not him. It wouldn't surprise me if Moore and Kafka are the only two remaining candidates before a coach is announced.
