Nikki Javala with the athletic.

This is for both of you.

Just looking back over this past season,

how would you assess the work that Cliff did with the offense?

Yeah, we're going through all of the coaches.

Cliff, offensively, defensively, on the teams wide.

So that's really what we're digging into,

Nicky, define what's best, how do we do it,

you know, where do we find spaces to improve?

And, you know, for Cliff, for Joe, for Larry, for all of us, like, that's our main focus.

Like, so we're never in this space again.

And that's what we want to dig in hard on.

Again, that was yesterday's season-ending press conference with Adam Peters and Dan Quinn.

When I heard that answer, I thought he in trouble, Cliff Kingsbury.

Ben Standing is with us, our insider for the team.

Ben told us here on the show yesterday that he thought it was 6040, that Kingsbury would not be back in 2026.

And I think it's certainly tilting big time in that direction after that answer.

Ben had some really good reporting over the weekend on this, talking to league front office sources

and people close to the situation that said that they were not going to be surprised if Kingsbury

weren't back, even if he doesn't get a head coaching opportunity in this coaching cycle. Ben is

with us. At Ben Standing, of course, on X on Twitter.

Did you pretty much know when he didn't answer Nikki's question that this was probably going to end?
