Hopefully, Moore will be distracted thinking about his new HC gig. and it so happens that the SB will be played in the city he's potentially going to coach in.
The #Saints plan to meet again with #Eagles OC Kellen Moore after Super Bowl LIX, an indication he’s the top choice for new head coach, per The Insiders.
This is the first time the two sides can speak… and Moore could just stick around, since the game is in New Orleans. pic.twitter.com/PKzt1wX8Cx

Is it because you want all attention on the SB? I'm confused what you're arguing for now.
Saying no coaches from active teams should be interviewed until their team is out of the playoffs makes sense. The other thing does not
No hirings until after the SB. Period. That is the only way for all coaches and teams to have a fair chance at all things. [Reply]

I doubt it happens but that would be the most fair way for teams and coaches to get to where they really wanted to be without either possibly interfering with the playoffs or hiring another coach because they might miss out on a coach on a playoff/super bowl team. [Reply]
I don’t want to see spags leave. But if he did I sure as shit don’t want him in a position to fail. Why would anyone in their right mind want that role for the next few years. They are in a special kind of cap hell. [Reply]

For sure. A guy who has been in two terrible unwinnable situations with post bountygate and the mcadoo fiasco… spags is gonna go somewhere where he has a shot to redeem himself. His fallback is to have the best dc job in the nfl. He can more than afford to be picky [Reply]

Distractions ain't great and they absolutely ARE a thing.
It's weird for Moore, but I imagine it's every bit as odd for his players.
They're going to listen to his meetings for the next week and absolutely have it cross their minds that he's got a foot out the door already, ESPECIALLY being in the very city he is leaving for. [Reply]
I remember Haley was pretty much locked in as our head coach during that 2-week SB window, but we couldn't officially hire him.
I'm sure if he had an eye on his next job, it didn't affect Warner throwing that back-breaking pick 6 before halftime, but it's probably they could've used some more effective plays prior to and after that. [Reply]
