Kellen Moore expected to be Saints HC

[Draconator]

Good choice for the Saints 

[US Egg]

Barring any unexpected developments? …..that’s always my go to.

The dude has always looked like he's 12 years old

[Bangarang]

Underwhelming but that job was never going to be a desirable one.

[Charles Romes]

Spags would have been a better choice

Smart move because it keeps Brady here for another year plus it just makes sense for your HC to be an Offense guy so your QB isn't going through a new co-ordinator every couple of years.

Plus I think he and Carr know each other.  They played against each other in college! 
 

Which is pretty funny.

I agree. It could be a good hire for them.

[MiltonWaddams]

I just don’t think he’s very special as an offensive coordinator. Generally, when you’re head coach material, you’ve been exceptional as a coordinator. He had high expectations at every stop, but wasn’t really exceptional in Dallas, Los Angeles, or in Philadelphia. He has exceptional players in Philadelphia, but I don’t think they’re succeeding because of him.

That's a good hire for NO's and honestly, i don't know what other direction they could have possibly gone other than this.......he may not be able to right that ship, but he'll give them a better chance to be competitive.

Whatever one they get to replace Carr.

What's the record for OCs who get head coaching gigs right before the SB

 

I remember being sad when Marchibroda left

Smart move for Moore.

 

He gets likely a 4-5 year guaranteed contract that makes him way more then he probably would have made. He never has to take a job he doesn't really want again. If he somehow stumbles into fixing the Saints, he makes even more. If not he'll have a few years of pay he doesn't have to work for. 

 

Being a HC also opens other avenues for coaches. Let's say he gets fired in 2 years...he could go the college HC route, the offensive advisor path or even one of the many Sunday morning pregame shows. If a dolt of a personality like Jason Garrett can land one...any former HC should be able to. 

 

He's been passed over many times before for various reasons and this may have been his final realistic shot IMO

Reid ain't going anywhere until he gets the wins record.

Kelly losing Ted was the start of the end for Jimbo.

328 for Shula and 273 for Reid means 55 tie and 56 for the lead....would take another 4-5 years at least...maybe more as the AFC West is getting better...Reid is 66 will be 67 next month..so he would have to coach into his 70s...if they keep winning big and deep he could ride Mahomes as Bill Beli did with TB12 until the GOAT was no more...
