It'd likely be whoever is willing to take their scraps of a contract, just like in FA, so basically Kellen Moore.If this organization did things the right way, I'd be completely in favor of moving on.
But because they don't, I would much rather bring McCarthy back than to see who the hell these morons hire in the end.

WhyBengals just scapegoated their DC. I’d take him if Zimmer left.
The only thing that makes me mad at the moment is how poorly the organization is being run. I actually only want one change and that is Solari. Now my anger will grow if Mike goes elsewhere and I didn't think it would be this way when they hired him. I think it's more of a case of the devil you know than the one you dont.If course it will. That's by far the biggest issue. They drag their feet constantly.
For Christ's sake just make a decision, get it done, and move on.

Can't say I didn't warn you.
I ain’t watching that shit.Can't say I didn't warn you.
“But, Jerry, what if your kid is a cheapskate?”
I am certain Fat Mike isn’t the guy to try to pull an incentives contract on. That is what you do for some goober who just wants the title like Campo or something.It's going to be pretty amusing to see teams getting through 1st and 2nd rounds of interviews while Jerry dithers around trying to get McCarthy to accept some sort of incentive-laden contract.
Almost the exact same situation as FA where Stephen loves low-balling guys and haggling over $40,000 workout incentives.
