NFL teams have wanted Riley

honestly, this is my biggest concern with Riley... him finding success here, then NFL teams REALLY come calling, and then we are left in a similar situation as we were with Saban...

i'm praying that if it is Riley, he's here for the long haul, and isn't looking to go the NFL in the next few years

I guess you can look at it like if he has great successs and does leave, maybe we can have a really great foundation in place and won’t botch the next hire?

With the success The Cards are having, it wouldn’t be long before teams come calling

Saban was the first one I thought of when reading this.

I’ve always thought this kind of thinking is weak. If NFL teams are knocking that means we have a very good coach. Nothing lasts forever.

I've wondered why Woody would put a guy in place if the guy had clear NFL aspirations and the potential to be hired to the league. SW is doing a program scrape and rebuild and just don't see him hiring a guy everyone assumes could and would leave if the right owner called him up any given year.
