I agree with what you are implying as well. Witten probably back next year, if not at TE, at TE coach. Where are ya'll getting that impression from that short article? What am I missing?

Here’s the timeline: -We hire McCarthy -McCarthy decides to keep Kellen Moore as OC -Despite never having talked to Dak, McCarthy decides to let QB coach Kitna go, not to hire his own guy, but to reassign the previous regime’s TE coach. Someone wasn’t a big fan of Kitna. It only really makes sense that it was Moore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't hire his guy, though. He stayed in-house and just reshuffled. It's super interesting. Sometimes I wish we had greater insight to the internal power dynamics of the team. I'd imagine *most* of the established talking points we read on this forum would be wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine *most* of the established talking points we read on this forum would be wrong. Jerry wanted Kitna to join the staff a while ago, but Linehan put the kibosh on it. I wonder if there may be some residual issues there. Moore was pretty Loyal to Linehan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you can connect those dots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read the 874 posted tweets on this forum since MM, but I certainly could have missed it. I guess I'm just not ready to jump on that conclusion yet.

Someone asked him - on Friday, I think - if he had talk to Dak and his response was: no, I've been busy, but I need to get on it and call him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
