I think it was last year Kevin Durant said that the fans of the NBA seem more interested in the offseason than the actual games in the regular season and even in the playoffs because of all the free agency and trades and everything that goes on in the NBA, although that has been slowed down a little bit since the new CBA rules and keeping guys and the bird rights and all that stuff.
You don't see as much of the defections as you used to. in free agency. But I really do feel that with this Super Bowl matchup, even though we've got total respect for these teams and these quarterbacks, these coaches and everything else, but the offseason in the NFL is way more interesting right now than talking about this football game.
And it's not even close because there were 10 openings in the NFL. You got big names flying around everywhere. And then on top of it, you got these staffs there being put together where you got guys that, you know, some were just players not that long ago in Sean Mannion and Davis Webb. You got other guys who have been coordinators forever, like a Jim Schwartz that we know.
I mean, this offseason so far, before free agency and before the draft, has been the most interesting I can remember in forever.
I would say, just think of the Jets, Browns, and Bills. Just think of those three teams and what those three teams are going through as we're speaking about it. And you had two head coaches basically fired. You've had new head coaches that have replaced them. One, Todd Munkin, came out of nowhere and it was the only team that actually interviewed Todd.
for a head coaching job, and it sounds like Jimmy Haslam, the owner of the Browns, superseded his general manager and the search firm's advice, so he decided to do this on his own. You got the Bills firing a head coach that had nothing but success since he got there and changed the whole entire franchise around, and then they hire their offensive coordinator,
Josh Allen shows up in crutches after having a surgery. You have the Jets firing three-quarters of the staff and then now looking for an offensive and a defense coordinator. They finally get the defense coordinator, of course. It's just crazy. And then you have Brian Dable and Rob Sala coming together in Tennessee.
Yeah, and Rob Sala has his press conference yesterday, and I like the fact when you hear things like this, if you're a Titans fan, where he's definitely learned something from his experience as Jets head coach, but you hate it when you listen to it from a Jets fan perspective, that he basically said, I'm calling the defense because, and there's Borgonzi and Rob Sala on CBS Sports Network and doing a bro hug.

Chapter 2: What emotional moments occurred during Joe Brady's introduction?
Second worst? Okay.
Just because he came out of nowhere. Again, no disrespect to him and the way the Browns fans are reacting to this and the slingshot reaction from Jim Schwartz. I mean, it's a very Browns-like situation.
That's part of that discussion. Now, I'm not saying that Todd Munkin as a head coach is a terrible thing, but the fact that it went down the way it did with Jim Schwartz, that's why the hire is questionable. So I'm going to agree with you on that. I'm going to say that number seven is the Browns. All right, so now we have three, four, five, and six we've got to get to.
So for me, I'm going to go six Dolphins. All right? Okay.
Chapter 3: How is Robert Saleh's coaching style described?
You need a number eight, by the way. You need a worst hire. Oh, no, you do.
You got the Dolphins.
I got the Dolphins. All right, so you need a six now. So we both have Giants one, both have Falcons two. We both have Browns seven. And I've got the Titans eight with Sala. You got Halfley eight with the Dolphins. Okay, so now...
Let's see. So it's either Jesse Mentor, right? Yeah. Mike McCarthy. I'm going to go Mike McCarthy. As number what? Six. I thought you liked Big Mike. I do like Big Mike, but it feels flat to me.
Pittsburgh.
You know, it just feels flat to me. Like John Harbaugh feels like energy's coming to New York at the right time. It just feels like now all of a sudden that, you know, that the winds of championship, you know, when they're behind a team. And Mike McDonald had created that out in Seattle. I mean, that's how I feel about Harbaugh and the Giants. I feel like it's such a perfect fit. It's so great.
And it's exactly what the Giants needed. The reaction of fans tells me a lot about the overarching decision by the owner. And like you said yesterday, you don't think that Pittsburgh fans are happy. No, they hate it. Right, and I don't know what their quarterback situation is going to be right now.
So I think that they probably wanted a Chris Shula or a Clint Kubiak or a Clay Kubiak or a Michael LaFleur. They wanted somebody like that, I would think, in Pittsburgh.
All right, so I got my list here. I finished it. Okay. I got from top to bottom, Giants 1, Falcons 2, Ravens 3 because – Yes, Jesse Minner, he was there, and he's a hell of a coach, and he's coming from L.A.

Chapter 4: What are the rankings of NFL coaching hires according to Gio?
Browns and Todd Munkin, seven. And Dolphins and Jeff Halfley, eight. There's your list. All right. We did a list. Yeah. Put that out, digital.
Get everybody riled up about that list. And, you know, my list is predicated basically on buzz, no buzz. Like, I'm going down the Al Dukes path. You think there's buzz around Rob Sala in Tennessee? I do. I really do. I think they're very happy with who they have. I would not have had him fired his last year when they fired him, and I don't know all the reasons as to why they fired him.
I have a few understandings of what happened over there in London, but they should have never fired him when they did. They should have waited out the season and see what he and Aaron Rodgers could have done. And then they could have both went off in the sunset together if it didn't work out.
All right, now let's do the list of head coaches worst to first. 32, Aaron Glenn. Joe in Parsippany, New Jersey. What's going on, Joe?
Oh, guys, I was hoping you were going to pick on me. I was like, this is my spot here. Like, I'm having conversations with – I was interviewing somebody yesterday. The kid's 22 years old, and he's got a sports podcast, and we're just starting the conversation talking sports. He's a Steelers fan. He agrees, McCarthy, no buzz.
But then I start talking about Aaron Glenn, and he's just like, yeah, so it's a washed year. Like, who's the coach going to be next year?
like like we're not even like there's no hope and boomer i love i would love frank reich to come in and i know you're tight with him and and uh i agree with everything you were saying yesterday like i i would love that i don't ever feel like i've had a coach that i'd be like wow this is like he's competent and we would have frank reich but it doesn't even feel like aaron glenn could succeed with him
Yeah, well, right now the roster on offense I think is pretty damn good, actually, with the exception of the quarterback, which is obviously the million-dollar question. But they're going to have to fix this defense. They're going to have to get it faster. They're going to have to get it bigger. And they're going to have to get it younger.
I mean, there are going to be a lot of young players on this team the next two years. Here's the real question that I would have as I sit here is that if they go 3-14 again –

Chapter 5: What makes the Browns job the worst coaching position?
There's no way. But they said the same thing. They're probably saying the same thing about Dan Campbell and Detroit at the same time. That's why I always bring it up. But they had a legitimate quarterback who could run Ben Johnson's offense. They had a guy. They traded away Matthew Stafford. They brought in Jared Goff with the trade. And they had a guy that could legitimately run the offense.
And actually, the offense fit him as well as any offense in the league fits any other quarterback.
Yeah, and that's the biggest question. And we could talk all about the draft and everything else.
No, I would bring her cousins. If he's available, I would bring him in. I would. I would. I'm not expecting to go to the Super Bowl, but you know what? I'm expecting to be competent. I'm expected to have a third down converted for a first down.
Yeah, you better hope that there's not another team offering him a starting job, though. If the Jets are the only one offering a starting job, he'll come here to start?
I'll tell you one thing. The one hook for one of these quarterbacks, if there are quarterbacks available, and if Frank takes the job, the one hook for that quarterback is that you're going to be playing for a guy who every quarterback that has played for him, with the exception of Bryce Young, because it was his rookie year, had one of their, if not their, best years ever as a quarterback.
Yeah, I didn't think we'd be in a position now all these years later after Kirk Cousins went to the Vikings and sent the Jets in free agency. That was that big deal that we'd be now begging Kirk Cousins to come here as a quarterback.
Even if he just did for two, he could come here. Whoever's coming here. That sounds great compared to the other options. But I'm just saying, whoever is coming here, most likely, when they signed Justin Fields, they thought, okay, we're going to give him a two-year kind of bridge contract deal. Yeah. And that's kind of what is – they're in the same situation. Yeah.
They're in the same situation this time, this year, as they were last year when they let Aaron Rodgers go.
