    Bears
    Colts
    Giants
    Lions
    Cardinals

    Out of those the Cardinals seem like the only potential option due to familiarity.

    From what I've read a few teams have already requested interviews with Patricia and Mcdaniels.

    The grass isn’t always greener on the other side of the road.

    True, but when the qb coach has to be brought down to the field to function as a buffer a change needs to be made.

    You missed: OC for the Steelers

    Like it or not, chances are pretty high on him returning for the next season.

    I didn’t miss anything. The post wasn’t intended to be about an oc for the Steelers.

    McDaniels is an outstanding oc. I would bet his tenure in Denver would have been different had he not gambled on Tebow.

    Link???? Where is this info coming from? I know Ben and Todd don't get along but is this a case where the media making a big thing out of something small? I mean we haven't been struggling scoring 34-27-39-23-31&40 pts. Ben has thrown 2 or more td's in his last 7 games, if things were that bad wouldn't he be not playing as well?

    I just don’t see Tomlin getting rid of him. I’m also skeptical of his head coaching prospects. Lots of teams want to replicate the Steelers by trying to hire a young phenom. Others look for previous successful coaches (arguable whether his time in KC counts for this) or some past connection. So, if I were to bet, I’d say he will be our OC next year.

    I was making a joke that Ben wasn’t getting it done and that’s why he sat yesterday. Seemed to me just as an absurd point as a discussion about wanting to get rid of your OC on a 13-3 team.

    I don' see Haley as HC material.

    I think he is strictly an OC.

    It’s not about wanting to get rid of haley(although I wouldn’t complain) his contract is up and hasn’t been extended.

    I liked Haley way better than Arians, but if Ben retires and they don't get a FA at QB, meaning they stick with LJ, Dobbs and draft pick, then I don't trust Haley to be that developmental guy for our new draft pick, which hopefully is a 1st rounder.

    I don't see Haley getting any HC consideration. His M.O. of not getting along with players (if true) would be troubling for most front offices. And I don't think Haley takes a lateral move to another team's OC voluntarily. The only option I see of getting a new OC is if the Steelers do not renew his contract.

    Dallas Cowboy rumors have been creeping up the media outlets. And let's not forget his buddy Scott Peoli in Atlanta if they decide to part ways with Sarkesian.

    You still have to do your job whether you and your boss get along or not.

    Doubt he even gets interviewed. He hasn't done anything special and is working with elite talent.

    Haley has failed at coaching head along with offensive coordinator, seriously just ask Ben. Hey speaking of Ben, with him and Bruce retiring they both can do lot's of golfing and fishing this summer that's what friends do!
