Kellen Moore most likely to be Saints coach per Garafalo, Hire not finalized yet due to SB; Kellen Moore in driver seat per Jonathan Jones
No one drags out hiring a NFL Coach like this for no apparent reason...
It's only been 48 hours (2 days) since the Saints interviewed Moore who was their last interview. Loomis is always deliberate and patient, hence all the "what's taking him so long" complaints.
Loomis and the hiring committee taking a few days to deliberate over all of the candidates would not be "dragging" anything out and the reason they'd be doing it is to be extremely thorough to make sure they make a good hire.
Did you listen to Kafka's post interview. He knew he wasn't the choice.
Yes I did listen to Kafka's interview. You're hearing what you want to hear. There was nothing he said or did that indicated anything about where he stands with the job.
Maybe, maybe not. Time will tell.
He would have made a public announcement if he didn't want the job!
He may want the job, but the Saints may not have decided who they want just yet.
Notice the language reporters are using: "front runner," "driver's seat," "final decision not made yet" and all the other descriptions. None of them are as definitive as people are reading them to be.
Ever been in the passenger seat on the steep drop off side of a mountain road? That's the same kind of anxiety that a lot of fans seem to be experiencing. Not having any real information or control over the situation seems to have a lot of people white knuckling over who the Saints will or did hire.
The hiring committee doesn't have that anxiety, because they have all of the information and all of the control, so they don't feel pressured to have to rush to make or announce their decision.
