A rare snowstorm in New Orleans forced the Saints to press pause on their head coaching search this week, but things are set to get up and running again.
The troubling downturn for the Giants and their offense the past two years seemingly has not touched or damaged Mike Kafka’s reputation.
According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Media, New Orleans has scheduled in-person interviews with Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka and Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver. Kafka's interview is slated for Tuesday while Weaver will be in town to meet with the club on Wednesday.
Aaron Glenn is off the table for the Saints, now that the Jets have hired him to be their head coach. So what now for the Saints? Well, Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka — who surely wants to get away from Brian Daboll and the disaster in East Rutherford — is still a finalist in New Orleans.
For starters, Weaver is a former player. His time with the Ravens and Texans saw him play for Brian Billick and Gary Kubiak. He has coached in the NFL since 2012, working under Rex Ryan and the Jets to start as an assistant defensive line coach. He also played under Ryan when he was with the Ravens. Now, Ryan is of the John Harbaugh tree.
