The BEST-case scenario is new owner is announced today or very soon and they bring in a good GM who then picks a coach. EB could definitively be a candidate in that scenario.
I think RR took this organization from laughingstock to mediocre and we need a new coach to take us to the next level. But like many have said, new owner is the first shoe to drop to get this all started.

Has our our on field play has ticked from laughing stock to mediocre? Off the field we are clearly still a laughing stock, though that is on the idiot owner. Always was really. On the field we ticked up real slightly as far as wins losses go from Gruden to Rivera. Not sure it is enough to call it a marked improvement.
Anyway yeah Snyder leaving is the first domino. And its a giant one.

EB coming here would be an absolute career damaging move. Unless he is being pushed out in KC he should just stay there. He still has enough say over the offense in KC but I get the feeling, for whatever reason they want him to move on.

I think it has. In the three years with RR 7-9,7-10, 8-8-1 with a back up QB running the show? That is pretty solid. Gruden had a 4-12 and 3-13 season.

RR done a decent job, we all have to remember he is trying to grow a team with literally the worst upper management above him in the world. It has to be incredibly hard to cancel out the DS noise and focus on building a NFL team.

Subtle sarcasm?
No, not really. You can say that he hasn't succeeded in solving the QB riddle, but I don't think you can say he hasn't tried.
2020 - gave 1st round draft pick Haskins the opportunity. Didn't work. Released him. K Allen, A Smith T Heinicke all played. Won the division - lost to TB with TH.
2021 - Tried to get M Stafford (who went on to win the SB). Signed R Fitzpatrick, who could have been a good fit. He's injured in the first half of the first game - and it's TH the rest of the way (and K Allen and G Gilbert due to Covid)
2022 - Made an offer for R Wilson, inquired about many other QBs (including D Carr, M Trubisky, P Mahomes, etc.). Some inquiries were probably not realistic, but you can't say he didn't try. He settled for C Wentz. Paid him too much. He was bad. Also drafted S Howell.
2023? - Starts with bringing in a capable OC. He's interviewed nine candidates so far. We'll see who it is soon.

He is being "pushed out" of KC only in the sense that it may be the only way he ever gets a HC opportunity.
I don't look at coming here as a career damaging move. He will have total control of this offense. If he is successful it will be the best move he ever made.
The only way this move will be career damaging is if he fails, which is possible, as we really don't know what we have in Howell yet - who is slated to be the starter as of today.
