What's there to discuss right now in that scenario?

I didn't say there was a handshake agreement. Just saying it seemed weird to keep a 67-year old coach around, surround him with really young coaching assistants, and bring in players that mostly seem ideal for a multi-front scheme he doesn't run. Didn't it feel like the moves Reid made late in the season hinted that Bob was toast? So why should these discussions be a surprise? Maybe it's to assure the fans immediately they're taking care of it. Maybe it's to discuss whether to hire internal or external. I don't know that I buy that this game was when they decided to can Sutton and they had an urgent meeting around it. Feels like the decision was made a while ago.
