Don't know much about him but I'm glad we are at least interviewing several outside candidates. Fresh eyes are definitely needed.
I agree with this.

However, most of these guys link back to McCarthy in some sort of way. I would like to see a guy like Brian Johnson who worked with Dak before.

Steichen is interviewing with colts again i thought. Would be 2nd interview. If he gets it they likely promote Johnson to oc

Why are they interviewing OC's? Is he going to hold McCarthy's clipboard? Pick up his drycleaning? Wash his car during practice?

McCarthy is now the OC. He's calling the plays. It will be his offense. His play designs. They have already drummed out Moore as a scapegoat. Are they now setting up another one?

Playcalling is just one responsibility, you still need at least an OC.

They haven't interviewed any OCs. They're not looking for a real OC.

Well if you get a guy who knows your system and can work separately with the O while you are coaching the team it helps. Just more eyes and ears to get guys on the same page. Maybe that guy then grows to be the next HC somewhere with fresh ideas. I don’t know these guys so not sure if that’s the case but that’s my answer to “why get an OC”

Most teams that have head coaches who call plays also have an OC. Rams do, Green Bay does. A lot goes into formulating a game plan.

Moore wasn't the scapegoat he left on his own.....Offensive Coordinator does more than just calls plays. A head coach needs a offensive coordinator.

For the exact reason, the Rooney rule exists… The old boys club.

It’s attempt to fight nepotism and guys like mike Nolan getting late in life gift contracts from old pals ..
Silliness. A franchise should have the freedom to pick whoever they want. It doesn't fight anything at all. All of these teams forced to interview one minority. That's the last thing I would find imortant. Pandering to minorities instead of hiring on merit ruins the product.
If a guy is a good coach, he's a good coach. Simple.
Now they have to almost humor the league, interview guys they may not have had interest in and that never gets hired.

They tried Nolan and replaced him the next season, what else would you like? Of course coaches hire people they're familiar with. The idea that they still fired him tells you the theory on nepotism is false.
Now the front office is different. That's all family.
