As many here have said.

That’s not necessarily true. An equal number of coaches on those teams are in transition. It can be a game of musical chairs where no one loses their seat; they just get shifted around.

Yes, if they end up with LeFleur or Kubiak in the end, I won't be disappointed. However, the problem with waiting so long is it hinders their ability to put together a competent staff around the new HC. JG was hired on Valentine's Day and consequently put together the most inexperienced/green staff we've seen in a long time. This absolutely is a disadvantage.
Yes, it absolutely is a disadvantage. However, it’s not like there is a shortage of good coaches, and who knows if LaFleur or Kubiak wants to bring some from their current teams. I do share your worry, but I don’t think it necessarily is impossible to recover from.

I think Gannon was budget-restricted on his staff. It’s the only explanation for having so many under qualified coaches.

LaFleur hilariously might want to be here since he hasn’t withdrawn his name, yet.
he can’t lose… if he sucks he can say “ nobody could win there” …. If he competes in this grinder of a division he would be a legend…could you imagine the tail he could get? Bet he wouldn’t ever have to pay for a meal or drink in that state….maybe he likes Simpson …

7 minutes to state your case better be damn good at it
Even if Kubiak wanted the job I figure the price starts at what the bears gave their man…13 mill per …. No way bidwill is gonna pay that…

You might be right but as I recall Gannon really was bringing in "his guys" that he he'd worked with over the years and they all had the same "ultra positive" attitude. He also never replaced any of them. IMO it was weird.

I kinda disagree. I think for the most part, most position coaches are about the same. However, that implies that each HC has access to all of the potential coaches when in reality, a new HC probably only has access to those who have been let go, and then those he is familiar with. This then means that you are significantly reducing the number of above average coaches you can potentially get on your staff because they have been hired elsewhere, and are stuck with picking out of the average and below average bin. A team like AZ needs all the advantages it can get IMO.

I am emotionlessly still scratching my head as to that response to my post, that was in no way directed at PA. I think some Cardinal fan related dementia is settling in over there.
Yeah...that's why I stopped my back and forth with him because he is not really taking in what is being said. He is just emotionally firing which is not something I am interested in navigating.

Honestly, it is consistently his coping cycle. Whomever sucks...until they are gone...then they are magically good and Bidwill sucks...until someone new is brought in, then they are awesome. When in the end, Bidwill always sucks and as a result a lot of the guys he brings in suck because the guy who picks them sucks.

Even more of a reason to cancel the interview with Kubiak.
