Jason Fitz & Charles Robinson sort through the top candidates for each of the open NFL head coaching jobs. Could a Mike McCarthy return to the New Orleans Saints maximize Derek Carr’s potential before they enter a rebuild? Aaron Glenn could be an attractive option for the New York Jets, unless he decides to return to a Detroit Lions organization that’s doing just about everything right. After what he’s done to improve the Tampa Bay Buccaneers run game, could Liam Coen revive the Jacksonville Jaguars running with Travis Ettienne and Tank Bigsby?Charles puts a stop to all notions that the Dallas Cowboys could make moves to trade up for Shedeur Sanders, but he does believe they’re seriously considering Deion Sanders as their head coach. Another option for the Cowboys is Kellen Moore, especially since it seems Jerry Jones never really wanted to let him go in the first place. Though it may seem unlikely, is there good reason that Ben Johnson would prefer the Las Vegas Raiders job to the Chicago Bears opening?To wrap, the pair talk through some quarterback drama for the Minnesota Vikings and Cleveland Browns. After two disappointing losses, will the Vikings still consider franchising Sam Darnold or will they move on to J.J. McCarthy? Meanwhile, the Browns seem to have no choice but to draft a QB with the second pick in this year’s draft following Deshaun Watson’s second achilles injury.  (0:59) Frontrunners for coaching jobs(1:02) Mike McCarthy to Saints?(8:05) Aaron Glenn to Jets?(20:58) Liam Coen to Jaguars?(26:20) Could Cowboys draft Shedeur Sanders?(35:30) Kellen Moore to Cowboys?(39:16) Deion Sanders to Cowboys?(43:30) Ben Johnson to Raiders?(49:27) Where will Sam Darnold land?(58:45) Browns need new QB plans Subscribe to Inside Coverage on your favorite podcast app:🎧 Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3AbfhJc🎧 Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3ymFp3f📢Yahoo Sports podcast network: https://apple.co/3zEuT❤️ Inside Coverage would be nothing without the impact of our beloved Terez Paylor, who was a pillar of Yahoo Sports' NFL editorial and podcast coverage.
