Which Maybe-Soon-to-Be-Open NFL Head-Coaching Job Is the Most Enticing?

[purplefaithful]

Seats are heating up around the league, and five franchises may have coaching vacancies by season’s end. But based on team personnel, front office staff, and overall culture, only one job can be the most appealing.

Remember hearing DeFilippo was the next "hot" prospect for a HC job, and is anyone worried we lose DeFilippo this off season?  I think his name has cooled off quite a bit.

Surprised they didn't include the Raven in this list.  I keep hearing that if they don't turn it around in the 2nd half of the season Harbaugh's probably gone.

Green Bay Packers
This one isn’t all that complicated. If Mike McCarthy is fired,
the next coach of the Packers will get a chance to work with one of the
greatest quarterbacks ever for what will likely be the final years of
his illustrious career. The chance to coach a guy like Aaron Rodgers
comes along once in a lifetime, and it’s likely going to have people
lining up around the block to interview for this job.

Green Bay’s offense has been in need of a schematic and
play-calling overhaul for some time. If the team landed someone of Riley
or DeFilippo’s ilk, the Packers hit the ground running in that coach’s
first season. The offense has talent, with Davante Adams on the
outside, a quality pass-blocking line in front of Rodgers, and the
explosive Aaron Jones toting the rock. The right offensive mind could
turn this group into a powerhouse.

The Packers’ history as a conservative franchise may give
some coaches pause, though. Green Bay has been hesitant to take big
swings in free agency over the years, and even with a new regime in the
front office—led by Ted Thompson disciple Brian Gutekunst—the Packers
probably won’t be making any big splashes any time soon.

Still, Gutekunst has more than $40 million in projected
cap space to work with next season and two first-round picks. Combine
that with the young, talented players that are already on Green Bay’s
roster, like Jaire Alexander, and the Packers could seen a spike in play
by the start of next season. There’s no reason to overthink this one:
The chance to coach Rodgers for one of the most storied franchises in
sports—one that typically employs its head coaches for more than a
decade—is as good as it gets.

Jason Garrett must have some sweet pics of Jurruh to keep his job after 9 1/2 years, double digit wins in only 2 seasons and a 1-2 playoff record.

hopefully it is cooled enough for us to keep him for a couple of years at least.

We need to start a "keep Mike" campaign. 

Although working with a QB of Rodgers talent has to be enticing, coaching "a guy like Aaron Rodgers" might not be so appealing.

Jerry likes his coaches to be his little poodle and Jason fits that bill. Could you imagine a coach with some back bone sticking around? I cant. I believe that is why Jason is still there. Jerry needs a pet to control.

I do believe that Defillipo will be gone after the year. He has turned this offense around and is calling really good games.

Any picture of that old zombie Jurruh in an...err compromised state. Wouldn't be sweet in my mind. There goes lunch.
