there is absolutely the distinct possibility that he does not get hired.I’m starting to wonder if Bill is even going to get the Falcons job. The Falcons are now interviewing the Texans and Lions OC’s according to NFL Good Morning Football. If Arthur Blank really wanted Bill wouldn’t he just interview two coaches to satisfy the Rooney rule and then hire Bill instead of interviewing Harbaugh, and the two OC’s.
the NFL is full of trends and trendsetters. If something is working, go right ahead, hop on that bandwagon.
The biggest hiring trend in recent years is going for the young gun OC to take control (just to name a few - not even close to being an exhaustive list of all the coaching changes)
Arizona - 41 year old Jonathan Gannon ( former Philly DC ); before him, 40 year old Kliff Kingsbury
Cincy - 38 year old Zac Taylor
Cleveland - 39 year old Kevin Stefanski
Detroit - 45 yr old Dan Campbell
etc etc
Another trend is what we've seen here in the short period of Mayo building his staff. So many calls for "The McVay system" type coordinators etc. Happens every year.
