Interviews/Hires are a collaborative effort.
Case in point. Mickey had consistently said this is a talented roster that was ravaged by injuries. The complete opposite of what some people here have said to force the narrative of why we need a complete reset.
The belief in the talent on the roster has kept Loomis in a competitive mode. Notice Moore committed to saying they can compete for the NFC South title. He echo’d Loomis.
While reading an article on the Seahawks Mac McDonald said that each OC was asked about their plan for WR DK Metcalf and Kubiak’s vision was the most ideal.
I can almost guarantee, Kellen was asked about specific players and the vision and they lined up w/ Loomis (and the other decision makers) vision. Perhaps not 100% but enough that they can agree on key details. We know Ireland likes to build Oline/Dline etc.
What that means is that in their initial conversation, Carr came up, Rattler came up, and several other talking points like the cap were discussed and they saw a similar vision(or at least calmed concerns about each other) meaning that the questions he sidestepped, they have answers and a vision to despite not committing to anything verbally w/ the press.
I went back and watched Allen’s press conference and he waa calm, composed, and thoughtful. Ultimately his leadership was none of that, meanwhile Kellen was nervous, excitable and measure, but it doesn’t mean that’s how he’ll interact w/ the players behind the scenes.
I’ve learned how a coach speaks publicly means diddly squat for how he leads behind the scenes.
I’m excited for Moore
