Agreed 100%

Pederson was one of the first candidates to be interviewed because he was currently out of the league and at that time you could only interview people without jobs.

There was nothing about him being their top candidate. The fact that it took them 33 days for a 2nd interview says they weren't all that interested, or why wouldn't he be brought back in a lot sooner?

I really think it's indicative of Khan's lack of ambition. He's lazy. This is why Baalke is here. He hates this process. His history of having overly lengthy patience at a nauseating extent with coaches and his refusal to completely clean house in the front office after a coach gets hung out to dry is a remarkable and sad quality he has at the same time.

That is his nature. That is his approach. He's legitimately leaned on Baalke since Meyer was fired. He's deflated and personally demoralized. That's how I honestly see him. He's still making money. He just doesn't have to care. He can continue to be a pig rolling in his own [BLEEP] in pure ecstacy because it's permitted at this level.
