Maybe this time, if Josh McDaniels accepts a head-coaching job, he’ll actually follow through and not back out at the last second.
Despite McDaniels’ history, which includes a disastrous stint as the Denver Broncos’ head coach and backing out of the Indianapolis Colts’ job after accepting it, NFL teams trust that it’ll be different for them.
Three teams with head-coaching vacancies are going to talk to McDaniels this week. The Patriots are out of the playoffs after losing a wild-card game last week, giving McDaniels enough time to interview with teams and leave them hanging after he accepts one of the jobs.
