Hell...

Philips, Turner, Reeves (spec.) and the other candidates aren't going anywhere in the next 2 weeks...

I'd wait until after the SB to make sure that he is or isn't the guy...

100% agree Hunter.. At least give him an interview before hiring the Friend of Jerry re-tread we all expect. (whichever one it is...Turner, Phillips, etc)

I think he is a 4-3 guy not a 3-4 .

One problem would be him getting his assistants/staff in place.

It may not be bad waiting for a HC and afraid of losing out on others...but your OC, DC and other coaches that a HC may like would be gone as those seem to move more than HCs in this time of the year.

The Super Bowl won't tell us anything, but it is a league rule that we cannot talk to Rivera or any other Super Bowl staff coach until after the Super Bowl. After hearing about his interview with JFE, I say we should wait and talk to him before making a final decision. Of course, there's nothing wrong with interviewing others in the interim.

Judging by Rivera's name, he is Latino, so that would satisfy the minority rule even if we don't hire him. Am I right about that?

This is huge IMO. I mean, if your going to wait for Rivera, why not just wait for Lovie Smith in stead? At least if we got a guy like Smith, we could probably go with somebody like Singletary at DC. Something like that. Would make more sense if your going to wait, that is.

Rivera would not require compensation...Lovie would.

Well, if we don't have a hire by Monday I would think that means he is definately in the running.

I also agree, Jerry has to hear this guy out.

w/l of the SB has nothing to do with it. Do not leave any stones unturned.
We waited 3 weeks on Parcells, so why not another 2 weeks.

If by some chance Rivera was hired which coaches do you think he would bring a long with him? I think Wade Wilson would be brought in as well as a couple of other coaches from the Bears. Just as when Payton left to go to NO he made sure he brought some others with him.

It will probably be something like that Doomsday, although I think Rivera may be willing to hold on to some of the offensive coaching staff considering we were a field goal or two away from scoring the most points in the league this year....really the only thing he'd need to do on offense is add more talent on the OL, get younger at WR, and have better play-calling which might be a given now that the fat dinosaur is gone....:laugh2:

It's about the league rule...

Not how the team does...

And I don't think 1 game determines whether or not a coach is worth hiring...

His defense carried the team for the past couple of years...
