**I plan on making these for more of the candidates. I'm not a stan for Kafka, he's just the one I wanted to write about first.
Mike Kafka is one of the reported interviewees for our head job. His candidacy has been met with widespread criticism, but is it all deserved?
One could make a pretty reasonable case for Kafka being unfairly maligned as a result of his current situation. He's under a dysfunctional head coach in Daboll who has been driving people away from the organization like mad. There are multiple reports of him obstructing Kafka from doing his job properly and berating him and other staff constantly.
Kafka's been saddled with a rough task in New York. Daniel Jones is not good, their offensive line is not good, their running game is unreliable, their defense is middling and just had their DC pushed out by their psycho coach, and.. well, yeah. Psycho HC.
Kafka's background, though, is interesting. He's a Reid disciple, both as a player and a coach. He coordinated a wonderful KC passing game and did initially elevate the Giants offense is 2022.
Kafka's not all bad. There's some legit background there and he comes from a proven tree. Does his lack of recent success in a bad situation relegate him to to second-rate OC status, or does his background as a disciple of a highly successful coaching tree plus his previous success perhaps indicate that he's undervalued?
Discuss below.
Kafka's resume for additional background:
