I suspect he knows his time will come. Better to land in the right head coaching job than the first one you can get? Especially considering many guys only get one shot.
Sure it is but getting your foot in the door is pretty important too.
His foot is in a door already. The next step he takes is a huge one. I don’t blame him for treading carefully.
Wouldn’t doubt it. It’s a sure fire way not to get hired. You have to be something like a McVay to walk in the door demanding what you want.

Brian Daboll and Flores were in a neck and neck race and what people are forgetting now is that Daboll interviewed with the Giants like 48 hours after the incredible playoff game with KC. The guy's star could not have been shining brighter.
Articles like this were being posted daily, and the idea that it wasnt Daboll's job to lose is just disingenous
Here's a guy who's definitely tied in to the Giants, explaining his belief of why Daboll over FloresGiants’ coaching timeline clear after Brian Daboll’s shot to secure job
There is a good chance the Giants on Tuesday had their next head coach in the building. Whether the in-person interview with Brian Daboll turns into a hiring remains to be seen. By this weekend, th…

Yeah, people usually don’t treat texts to each other as public info. Wondering if Belicheat gave express permission to get it out there?
Who said they are attacking Daboll? I surely didnt. I am attacking the idea that the job wasnt almost assuredly Daboll's and without any texts or insider info needed. The Giants hired Schoen, Daboll is his guy. The Bills offense was unstoppable in the loss, then Daboll shows up to interview. It would have been impossible for him to not get the nod at that point unless he totally botched his interview. Which apparently, he crushed it.
Exactly so. It's a clear, serious allegation against Ross with potentially massive implications for the league. Like the Patriots' cheating scandal, it potentially calls into question the integrity of the game. And the NFL's business model of legalized betting.
Supposedly Flores has witnesses who will back him on this allegation. I just don't see how he gets out of this still owning the team if that's the case.
No, I'm saying it says what it says. Belichick heard from NYG and Buffalo that Daboll was getting the job. Flores got pissed because the Giants interviewed him despite having basically already decided to give the job to somebody else. I am disagreeing with you on the idea that Belichick was merely offering his speculation. He didn't word his text that way. He worded it as if he received information from those in the know.
It's not easy to draw a baseline. I'm not arguing that 60% of assistant coaches must be Black. I'm not arguing that 30% of head coaches must be Black. But I am arguing that when 30% of assistant coaches are Black and only 3% of head coaches are Black right now, it strongly demonstrates that there is an issue. A guy like Brian Flores getting fired despite overachieving and winning the past two years only highlights that problem.
This may well be the case but imo it is not a certainty yet. Belichick was relaying information from others. We don't know who nor what they actually told him. We don't know what they actually knew about the Giants' hiring process. We don't know if they were stating a supposed fact or giving an opinion. And we don't know where the Giants' process actually was at. So I don't think this is any kind of done deal just yet.
Agreed. It's not a done deal. My point is over the interpretation of Belichick's words.
