Re: Report: Shanahan to DC done deal
 

Someone was talking about them announcing that the redskins fulfilled the Rooney rule but wouldnt name the candidate.

Like i said earlier, they said on the TV yesterday during the evening games that the Redskins interviewed Greg Blache for the HC position, thereby satisfying the Rooney Rule.

[quote=BigHairedAristocrat;643253]I wouldn't discount Gregg Williams as Snyder's Plan B if he's been rebuffed by Snyder, Cowher, Gruden, etc. If I remember correctly, two years ago Snyder wanted Williams, but Vinny and Williams wouldn't work together and Snyder opted to keep Vinny. Now that Vinny's gone, there's no obstacle to Williams returning.

In addition to the names already mentioned, I think Charlie Weiss and Mike Holmgren are possibilities. I really think the chances of Shanahan coming here are slimmer than most people think.[/quote]

Holmgren to the Browns is all but official. I don't think Weis was ever a serious candidate (but I guess you never know)

Re: Report: Shanahan to DC done deal
 

I know this was brought up several times but I'm bringing it up as a question. Can DS tell Zorn he's moving him from the HCing position to QB coach? I ask because ......

1) Zorn is a good QB coach.
2) DS owes Zorn for one more year, I thought I heard 3 mill.

Lastly and most importantly...
3) "If" Zorn can be demoted cause he's still under contract would he stay on as QB coach collecting 3 mill next year and leave or would he resign leaving DS not to owe him anything?

we need a major change in the way of thinking in our FO, i hope allen can talk some sense into synder. i know there is hype about getting shannan in here, and he is a proven coach. but i think maybe we should look at a different coach to bring in. bringing in shannan would be what we have been doing, which is bringing in the big name.

Zorn was not a change in thinking, that was vinny and danny getting a puppet as a coach.

Who do you recommend as our next coach?

do you want to see a change in they way the skins do things? ever since synder has owned the team he has gone after big name players and coaches here. i want them to get the right coach for the job, not a guy looking for a big payday. maybe a hot coordinator in the league, aka someone who wants to be here to build a team not a paycheck.

Re: Report: Shanahan to DC done deal
 

Always trust Schefter when it comes to Shanahan

Re: Report: Shanahan to DC done deal
 

Well he should come back and help game plan for the chargers game. At least he knows what they like to do and Zorn is an idiot. Don't need him here next year in any capacity.
