"Bill Belichick completes second interview with Atlanta"

This is such a weird match for me. On BB's side, you are walking into a team without a QB and is a year or two away from having some salary cap limitations with some of the high profile first round skill position guys they have brought in. Maybe he the longer term issues won't bother him at his age, but QB isn't going to be fixed immediately.

From Atlanta's side it's even weirder. You're bringing in a guy who is already 71 years old on a team that needs a QB and hasn't had a winning season since 2017. It also has non-qb roster issues that need to be addressed in the very near future after your front office has spent so much draft capital on offensive skill position players over the last few years. There also isn't some obvious young head coach in waiting from Belichick's previous staff that you would look to hand the reigns off to when Bill is done in a couple of years.

The only sense that I can make out of this is that Atlanta wants someone to show them how to make their football operations not look like a joke.

Interestingly, Belichick would be the first person with previous HC experience in the NFL to be hired as the HC of the Falcons since Arthur Blank bought the team 22 years ago.

Eagles generally cast a very wide net when it comes to coaching searches. For example, they might interview Ron Rivera for DC. Eagles problems won't change unless they hire an OC and allow him to run his own offense. I felt the OC Brian Johnson was a scapegoat. At the end of the day, it was Sirrani's offense. It worked with Steichen because they had a pervious working relationship built on trust and Steichen had a better feel for playcalling. It was obvious at times Sirrani didn't have full trust in Johnson. Eagles were too reliant on being RPO heavy and being dead last in being under center, motion rate, and roll out rate. I don't have a specific target for OC, but it can't be Sirrani's offense. There's a reason he gave up playcalling in year 1 and it got better. He has to let his ego go in this situation and focus on being a CEO coach

Just like on defense, if it's another coach that runs a Fangio defense, the same problems will arise. I still feel that Patricia was a disaster hiring from the start and should've let Desai finish the season out.
