Not whom do you think will be the next coach; whom do you want to be the next head coach.

He'd be a great game day strategist, smartest man on the planet. Evil, yes....but it works for Belichick.

Moore is definitely one to consider. But I do remember a few Cowboy games where their offense was just awful and he couldn't seem to pull them out of it.

I am not really impressed with the people with whom he chooses to surround himself -- probably would have a weak coaching staff.  Does that show a level of insecurity?

The thing with Roman...  we'd need a mobile QB since he's had the most success with those types of QBs.  Kaepernick, Tyrod Taylor, Lamar, Huntley, etc.  We'd likely have to trade Kirk and then look for a vet with some wheels.  Watson might be that guy if his legal stuff gets sorted out.

Not saying that I want him as our next HC, but if the Pats are able to upset the Bills in Buffalo on Saturday night for the second time this season, Josh McDaniels is going to get some buzz as a legit candidate.

I'm well aware of the lack of success that BB assistants have had when they've moved on to be the head guys. But, I also know that many successful HCs have faltered in their first gig & have then gone on to be successful. Look no further than BB himself. I would at least interview McDaniel. He may be more ready now than he was 10 years ago in Denver.

Read somewhere that we are interested in Dallas GM so then I would put a stronger lean for Moore.
For me GM first and the alignment with a HC - his decision!

But I am currently interested in OC:

Pederson, Daboll, Moore, Roman and Leftwhich

I like your list but would put Mr. Pederson at 1. Something about a coach kicking our ass in the championship game, Matching coaching wits and winning the super bowl against the Greatest coach and QB combo of all time and with a backup QB is intriguing.

Lane Kiffen just hired his brother as co-defensive coordinator at Ole Miss.  Lane is an a-hole but I can't imagine he would do this if he was going to leave.
