The Athletic’s Jeff Howe joined Cattles & Ramie on Tuesday to talk about the latest storylines around the NFL, including the recent head coaching hires, the 49ers losing multiple coordinators, where Derek Carr could sign, and more.

Topics discussed include:

  • Oak Ridge alum and former Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen hired as next Indianapolis Colts head coach
  • How much sense does Phoenix’s hire of former Eagles defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon make?
  • Was the holding call late in the Super Bowl deserved or unnecessary?
  • If the San Francisco 49ers be concerned that their coaches keep getting hired by other teams
  • “When you start to lose a number of assistants, the coaching as a whole is going to suffer. [Kyle] Shanahan in my opinion the best coach in the league this season. And his staff is incredible and has been incredible. He deserves the benefit of the doubt he’s going to be able to replenish a lot of that brain talent, but it’s tough because the coaches who have left and brought guys with him, that’s reinstalling a lot of their stuff.”
  • Did the Las Vegas Raiders shoot themselves in the foot with Derek Carr’s contract situation?
  • “Nobody was willing to touch [Derek Carr’s] contract when everybody kind of predicted how this was going to be the outcome.”
