[quote=NC_Skins;1053778]A side note for those who were clamoring for the great Lovie Smith:

[B][SIZE=3]
@AdamSchefter

Lovie Smith’s contract contains the clause that gives him final say over all personnel matters on the Buccaneers' final 53-man roster.[/SIZE][/B]



Be glad we didn't get ourselves into another situation like that. No way would I give Lovie final say so on personnel. Going to make that GM job pretty irrelevant.[/quote]

Yeah This hardly ever works that well anymore, HC trying to be GM as well

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

Wasn't Greg Manusky's name being thrown around for a possible HC candidate ?? Or was that just for a coordinator position??

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

Looking at the list I gotta say I like the mix. Offense, defense, and special teams are all covered. Young on the rise coordinators, experienced 2nd chance head coaches, a few off the radar types. Solid list.

Yep. We are doing it right. I can't remember when we last ran a coaching search this way but it is a good thing. If the next Joe Gibbs (unknown) or Belichick (retread who made good) is out there, we are doing our best to find him.

Agreed. I really like this list a lot. Nobody can say the Redskins front office is not doing its do diligence in finding the next head coach.

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

I'm glad we're exploring all options and doing what seems to be an exhaustive (and to some exhausting I'm sure) search for the next head coach. I don't say I have a clear cut favorite and really the offensive and defensive coordinators may be the most important hires.

If I had to rank them:
Mike Zimmer
Sean McDermott
Jay Gruden

No interest in:
Darrell Bevell
Greg Roman
Vic Fangio

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

Saw this in the Caldwell Article:

"Caldwell met with owner Daniel Snyder, general manager Bruce Allen, director of pro personnel [B]Morocco Brown, director of player personnel Scott Campbell and other team officials[/B]."

That is good to hear. Not that it is surprising, but glad they brought in the personnel guys to help to evaluate candidates, and not just Bruce and Danny.

Rich Bisaccia

He has indirectly.

There are a lot of qualified candidates for a job that many of the media "Talking Heads" say nobody wants.

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

I voted Bevell, he is still my first choice, but I really would like Bevell or Bisaccia, and would be more than ok with Gruden, Zimmer, even McDermott.

As has been said, this is a good list, and I imagine with Cincy out, Gruden will be making the rounds quickly.

I wonder who, if anyone, has turned us down because of our "undesirable" job. That is, who aside from the Cowhers of the world who turn down everyone.

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

I wonder what the level of interest our top choices have in DC compared to Detroit and Nashville?

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

James Franklin here in the nashville area could walk on water as he brought a dead program to life... He has good attitude. He is intriguing to me. I see him in the news nightly here in Tennessee. But I think my pick is Jay Gruden or Whisenhut... Gotta work with our future...our cornerstone RG3.

Like to see us go to 4-3 and get back to building this roster.

Wanna see the new guys plan for all the changes that are coming to the defense.

I could very likely see us going back to the 4-3.

Here a lot of people were taken by surprise that Munchak was fired...and with the new people in charge (Bud Adams death) many do not have a good fix on where this franchise is going. At least in the news yet!

And the Air Coryell offense, big OL, bruising RB, WR's flying everywhere and a stud TE and QB.

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

Are the Skins interviewing everyone cause there main guy is still alive in the playoffs? Or are they just being very thorough in order to show they are trying to change...
Sometimes I think they are interviewing everyone just to show that the are plenty of people who want a job with a "flagship" organization!

I hope we don't mess this up!

I might have missed it but is Raheem Morris not really being considered. I thought he got a raw deal in Tampa and the players seem like the would run through a brick wall for him..

I saw it, story is getting old

1.) Sally Jenkins is extremely tight with Shanahan, so she's biased I'm sure

2.) Garcon said specifically he was talking about everyone, himself included, needing to improve in the passing game

3.) She casually throws in "not all the stories about his ego" are true. Which is just weak reporting in my opinion.

4.) Why doesn't she point out that the Lions have no QB coach because Stafford doesn't want one since he doesn't think he needs help as a QB?

5.) Let's move the eff on from 2013

I started to read the story and got to the part "boy-emperor" and went "wha??" then I looked at the author and went "ohhhh".

Without talking to a single player, I could spend a day and tear it apart with quotes from players throughout the year . Fortunately for her, I get paid to do other stuff.

She is just terrible. Truly, truly terrible.

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

Yeah, thanks, sorry for even posting it . . . Again Sally Jenkins

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

[quote=Mattyk;1053849]It's Sally Jenkins... not necessary to say much else.[/quote]

She hates Dan Snyder and the Redskins as John Feinstein and Mike Wise (the 3 stooges). All they ever do is criticize the local teams, here in SF the writers support their teams.

Well said sir. Well said

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

[quote=Skinsfanatic;1053724]Bevell. We can find a good DC (I say Greg Williams for 4-3, Wade Phillips if we stay 3-4). We will be defined by our offense (RG3 is the face of this franchise). Bevell runs the type of offense we need to run. Run heavy with a dynamic quarterback.

And, if you are one of those people who believes RG3 is a headcase, you should want him even more. He (as OC of the Vikings) was behind Brett Favre's best year even while Brett was a sideshow attraction.[/quote]

Let's keep the 3-4. When its good its a way better play making D than 4-3. And I like your idea as W. Phillips for D-coordinator. He seems solid there and he definitely knows our division well.

I could get down with Jay Guden, the OC of his choice, and Phillips.

Gruden wanted Dalton over Kaep:

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

Either Bevell or Roman......two candidates with their best years ahead......they are two coaches that knows how to get the most out of RG3....

Eh to me they are about the same, CK is maybe a little better but he's more of a runner than a passer

Re: Pick Your Next Redskins Head Coach
 

Florida State!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes!!!!!!!!!! And SDSU won at Kansas in bball. Great sports week. Next stop, Skins making a great hire as head coach.

True. Not a huge fan of the idea. Don't hate it though
