Mularky, Jauron, and Fassel seem to be the top 3

According to our sources in Pittsburgh, the Mike Mularkey interview went very well and he is not the long-shot many envisioned when his name was thrown in the ring. The coaching search is expected to become very interesting over the next few days and it would not come as a surprise to see an announcement by early next week.

Sources also tell us that Fassel has not received any type of contract offer from the Bills.

It is rumored that Fassel really wants to be the new Bills head coach, moreso than any other team, that rumor appears more valid now that Washington has hired Joe Gibbs.

Additional sources say that Donahoe ranks the Dick Jauron interview in the same category as the Fassel and Mularky interviews.

While the Bills came away impressed with the Fassel interview, they were gearing up for the final interview today with Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Mike Mularkey.

There has been no official confirmation that Fassel had been given an offer to stay the night yesterday.

Saints General Manager Tom Benson will not let head coach Jim Haslett out of his deal. However, the two men are to have a meeting at some point Thursday or Friday, which may make things even more interesting.

Stay with Bills Report throughout the day, we will have much more soon.
