Bowles talked to the media today too. Maybe its a tryout on how to handle the media as part of the coaching search. If they say "pound the rock" or look at the tape or anything about invisible they are disqualified.

We got 3 guys for that job.... two of which are former GMs. So I don't get why it wouldn't be a full out GM position. Either way, any thoughts on this? 2 of the 3 are from teams [not including this season] were good. And Savage somehow got very good talent but never got results.

Why not just hire freaking Pioli?? How depressing, I know he would've came here if we offered him the spot.

somthing I did notice is that most of our HDC candidates have some experience in the scouting department.

Rumor mill going around that Paoli and Schwarts have a repore or professional relationship together it might be wise to offer Schwarts the job now.

And then we'll take Orakpo #1, leaving Stafford to the Chiefs.

I also heard a report (or read one) that said Pioli doesn't like Schwartz. They have a New England connection, but it doesn't automatically add up to friendship and mutual respect.
