Busy day with multiple coaching vacancies being filled: Packers: Matt LaFleur Bucs: Bruce Arians Cardinals: Kliff Kingsbury Jets: Vacant Browns: Vacant Dolphins: Vacant Bengals: Vacant Broncos: Vacant Everybody seems to be looking for the next McVay, who could be 0-2 in the playoffs after saturday
UPDATE Packers: Matt LaFleur Bucs: Bruce Arians Cardinals: Kliff Kingsbury Jets: Vacant Browns: Freddie Kitchens Dolphins: Vacant Bengals: Vacant Broncos: Vic Fangio A defensive coach!! I was pretty sure every team would hire an offensive one.
UPDATE Packers: Matt LaFleur Bucs: Bruce Arians Cardinals: Kliff Kingsbury Jets: Adam Gase Browns: Freddie Kitchens Dolphins: Vacant Bengals: Vacant Broncos: Vic Fangio Just two jobs remain. Mike McCarthy has said he'll take a sabbatical. Way to save face after he failed to get one of the very promising HC jobs. I think we'll see him on TV instead of a sideline very soon. Gase to the Jets really surprised me. I thought he'd get an OC job at best. He's still well regarded after his years with Manning, apparently.
UPDATE Packers: Matt LaFleur Bucs: Bruce Arians Cardinals: Kliff Kingsbury Jets: Adam Gase Browns: Freddie Kitchens Dolphins: Vacant Bengals: Zac Taylor* Broncos: Vic Fangio * Not official until the Rams season is over. Only the Dolphins job remains open...unless one or more of the remaining teams decide to make a change... Right, Jerry? Can you read me, Jerry? Are you there?
UPDATE Packers: Matt LaFleur Bucs: Bruce Arians Cardinals: Kliff Kingsbury Jets: Adam Gase Browns: Freddie Kitchens Dolphins: Brian Flores** Bengals: Zac Taylor* Broncos: Vic Fangio * Not official until the Rams season is over. ** Not official until the Patriots season is over. I'm glad Kris Richard is -probably- staying in Dallas after all. He can be coach in waiting for when Garrett is mercifully out.
Speaking of Arians, here's my take on the hire: http://sportschump.net/2019/01/12/bruce-arians-hired-tampa-bay-skeptical/20654/
