McCown reportedly won't leave Minnesota unless he gets a head coaching job. The post Here’s why Josh McCown won’t come to the Patriots as an offensive coordinator appeared first on Boston.com.

The New England Patriots have hired Mike Vrabel as their next head coach, making it the second year in a row that they've brought back one of their former linebackers to lead the team. Now, they're looking for their next offensive coordinator,

Mike Vrabel’s search for the New England Patriots next offensive coordinator is officially underway. The Patriots interviewed Chicago Bears interim head coach and offensive coordinator Thomas Brown about the open position on Tuesday,

The New York Jets surprised both fans and analysts around the league when they announced a trio of interviews for their open head coaching job. Arguably the biggest surprise wasn't the man with previous coaching experience in Brian Flores. It wasn't even the defensive coordinator with college coaching experience in Jeff Hafley. It was Josh McCown.

The jump from position coach to head coach is unusual but not unprecedented. A great example of it working is Andy Reid, who went from Packers quarterbacks coach to Eagles head coach in 1999. Reid has won 273 regular season games, the fourth most in NFL history, and has won three Super Bowls with the Chiefs.
