We found out earlier today that the Chicago Bears will interview Denver Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy to be their next head coach. ESPN’s Adam Schefter is now reporting that the Arizona Cardinals are also interested.
Arizona and Chicago have asked for and received permission to interview Broncos OC Mike McCoy for their HC job. Will interview this weekend.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) December 31, 2012
Our top candidate to replace McCoy would be Tom Moore, quarterback Peyton Manning‘s former offensive coordinator. If defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio lands another head coaching gig, Lovie Smith would be a nice fit in Denver.
The Broncos have a bye week so McCoy will have time for interviews. As of 1:30 p.m. MT, there have been no reports of teams asking to interview JDR, but that doesn’t mean the brilliant defensive mind won’t be courted sometime soon.

ESPNs Adam Schefter reports that the San Francisco 49ers signed K Billy Cundiff Tuesday.
The 49ers decided to finally bring in some kickers for tryouts this week after David Akers continued his struggles this season. Its hard to image a team keeping two kickers on their 53-man roster, so Akers could be released at some point in the near future.
