us only hearing about these guys from the 5 person front runner list we heard yesterday.

When Hortiz and Peters, the guys from the most modern organizations we interviewed are not on the chosen list yet.

I REALLY hope it's not because those two didn't like what THEY heard in the interview

Honestly can't even speak as to how that move would be maneuvered, I've just heard Chris Mara 100% was offered a GM job a few years back. That particular item is not smoke.

Those are two valid points.

The Bills are a “Johnny come lately” franchise

with their recent building..The Ravens are a quarter of a century “building empire.” Give me some Ravens
And so it begins … the hiring process is basically at its midpoint and

They are good points. My question though are Peters/Hortiz even interviewing anywhere else? I don't recall seeing them listed for any other vacancy.

He is a legit candidate and has been since early November

If they are interviewing 1 candidate per day. Hypothetically speaking, this happens. The Bears as I’ve heard on ESPN radio have been hit after Schoen and Daboll. They easily can call up and once they interview(not sure if it happened yet) can try and pry both of them ASAP. If Schoen is who they want, I think they’d be better off going 2 interviews tomorrow if possible.


It's probably not just a quick interview in a corner office. I imagine there is a tour involved as well as dinner in the city or something. They're recruiting as much as interviewing. Don't think it's possible to stack them.

If they are open with Schoen and his people about the timeline for a decision then I do not think it should be a problem. Daboll is a different story though but with his team in the playoffs, I don't see a significant risk there either. I prefer that they have a plan and stick to the timeline then FOMO'ing into a premature decision.

It's an all day interview.

This next round of interviews will all take place at the Giants’ facility. Co-owners John Mara and Steve Tisch, plus Chris Mara, the senior vice president of player personnel, will conduct all the in-person interviews, as they did virtually in the first round. Schoen during his full day spent with the Giants also sat down and talked with other members of the front office and received a tour of the team facility.

Ugh, any McDonnell connection makes me dubious.

How is that we’ve gone from glee for the initial 9 to shooting holes into the, thus far final 2? Who by the way were prime and welcomed candidates a week ago.

The NFL is a pretty incestuous community.

If you want to find a connection you may or may not want to exist, you can probably find one.

Iirc, McDonnell went to Holy Cross and then started his career at Notre Dame.

Why even make this statement? You already know they have to satisfy the Rooney Rule. Seems like you are trying to stir the pot, as usual.



Because I hope Poles as a legitimate shot. There is a lot to like.

Do you think Riddick had a legitimate shot in 2017 when Accorsi conducted his fake extensive search?



You do realize that accorsi isn’t involved with this search, right??

🤷🏻‍♂️

There was a BBIer who posted the connection, perhaps it was a Mara kid but it was definitely BC.

John himself is a BC alum. There's plenty of Mara legacy on Chestnut Hill.
