That would be quite a step up from the coaches they've previously had. Mccarthy worked wonders with a young Aaron Rodgers so Mayfield will be in very good hands I just hope they don't turn that defense into a 3-4 like McCarthy did in GB, that would be a waste of Myles garrets talent imo.

Wow that's a really uninspiring hire IMO. Aaron Rodgers would have more than one Super Bowl ring if McCarthy was worth anything. I'm sure a ton of young innovative coaches would love to coach up Baker Mayfield.

I honestly don't get this. I thought that Gregg and Kitchens had earned a chance and that short of a fresh face or shiny young guy that they should have kept the spot. A retread that was "Meh" with Aaron Rodgers doesn't make a ton of sense. 

 

Any chance that Greggy stays on as coordinator?

I agree. He had two H.O.F QB back to back , so I think he got severely overrated because he was always in the playoffs but I think this job will prove he's super overrated . Surprised they didn't take more time to consider Greg , who did a fantastic job with Kitchens and could stunt Bakers growth , implementing a brand new system , when he was excelling in the current one

Did they go through the process of interviewing and satisfying the Rooney Rule?

 

Well, Gregg Williams was the interim, so they checked the "mentally handicapped" box.

More about timing, I think. Payton was in trouble going into last year and responded with a great season (followed by his best season). McCarthy was in trouble this season and ended up not showing anything. 

 

And really, it's about adaptation. Peyton showed that he could, McCarthy didn't.

Payton always had a creative offense, McCarthy not so much. Oddly enough both teams had issues on the defensive side of the ball; last year's NO team had a good D

Interesting.  Has McCarthy proven anything without Rodgers as his QB?  I’d go so far as to say he squandered a lot of Rodgers best years.  

 

I really think Williams earned the right to apply for the job, if not win it.  

 

We shall see
