I agree with others. The NFL should have a rule in place that HC hires should wait until after the SB. What's a couple more weeks? It's mostly the same teams hiring every other year.
Hopefully, he has the team prepared and ready to kick ass on Sunday.

Wasnt concerned with this initially but he is only human. 4 interviews this week? Its not humanly possible for him to be 100% focused on game planning and winning Sunday. I hope his assistants are up to the task.

DeMeco does use a bunch of Fangio stuff on the back end(match quarters, rotations into Cover 3/6, etc). It's the front where it's different.
I wonder if Fangio would be willing to adjust to the base wide 9 and keep Kocurek. I doubt it, but that would be sweet.
If getting Vic means losing Coach K…I'm out.
Me too but what if he brought back Tomsula?

I gotta say I've lost some respect for Ryans. I understand wanting to get promoted and get a HC job, but FOUR interviews this week - while you should be getting ready fro the Cowboys - is a bit irresponsible. Interviews should be held during the bye week before the Super Bowl, at the very earliest.
Thank you for your absolutely worthless and pointless insight.

Also has it even been confirmed he's interviewing for 4 this week, all I've hear is Denver today and Houston Friday
Yes. Those two, plus Cardinals and Colts.

Can he steal Kris or is that off limits? Will Kris become a DC for DeMeco?

Kocurek ain't following DeMeco.
And Kocurek will not be DC for anyone. He's stated multiple times he has zero ambition to be a DC. He's a DL coach lifer.

I expect big things from the defense this week. We haven't seen that dominating performance in a while. I like how Kyle challenged them this week

Congrats on the Interviews, but please get your head in the game and get this defense back to its domination.

The defense wasn't particular good through the first half of the Seahawks game last week, but they still only allowed 24 points In total and 7 of those came when the game was basically out of reach.
I expect a much better performance overall from the defense this week than the one we witnessed against the Seahawks.

Wow, that seems a bit excessive for one week, especially during the playoffs. This makes me believe he will end up taking a job if he's getting that many interviews in this short of time. He's definitely deserving of the opportunity so people can't be mad at that, it just sucks that preparation time for this game will certainly be lost.
He's been great at adjustments though so I think he will still do good and one thing that helps is the veteran leadership on this team, imo they will be focused and ready.
