Really too bad -- I would have loved to see this. You know he would get our D playing better ball, and he's a serious motivator. Would have all kinds of cred with players and likely be able to get very strong assistants. Sigh.

[quote=scowan;1053138]Will it negative affect the Redskins long term if they decide to go with the OC coordinator from the Seahawks, if the Seahawks go all the way to the Super Bowl? I mean if that is the case, the Redskins won't name a coach until February.[/quote]

From the standpoint of assembling a staff, getting a head start on free agency & draft prep, making internal roster decisions yes, it can have a negative effect. But, as Matty said, if he's your guy then it shouldn't matter as much.

Bisaccia intrigues me. Hire a paesano!

or go throw 10 mil a year at Les Miles. I love his passion.

"Not a head coach type" from evidently his biggest fan pretty much says it all. Hopefully we steal him away from the Cowpokes to be our next ST coach, nothing more.

Hope we start seeing some legit candidates interview soon.

Re: Who Do You Want to Be The Head Coach?
 

There is no way that Dan Snyder is going to hire a virtually unknown coach to lead his team. The new coach is going to be a big name. I just don't know which one.

I wouldn't be a bit surprised if the Redskins are flying under the radar while they are putting together a deal for David Shaw or Chucky.

David Shaw would probably be a good NFL HC from the leadership and player management perspective, but if he were hired here, I wouldn't want him calling the plays. We would need to find an excellent OC to be responsible for that. Shaw's playcalling in the Rose Bowl was not impressive, and he has been knocked before for his unimaginative playcalling.

I would rather have Jay Gruden.

I agree. They went "all in" on RGIII and feel they failed with Shanahan. They can't afford to "waste" RGIII on an unproven guy. They need a proven commodity who's #1 job will be to coach up and maximize RGIIIs potential. I would say theres a 80% chance the guy we hire has been a "big name" NFL head coach before. I also dont think we're seriously considering any defensive-minded coaches.

I would bet on these candidates, in the following order:

1. Wisenhut
2. Cowher
3. Jay Gruden
4. Jon Gruden
5. Jim Caldwell

Someone a few posts up just said Cowher himself says it's highly unlikely that he'll coach again anytime soon.

For the Gregg Williams fans:

One huge, pressing question left for Munchak: Will he listen to suggestions about staff changes? The status of Gregg Williams is one of the big issues. Internally, there is some belief that Williams, not Jerry Gray, should be defensive coordinator. Williams could earn a promotion. The staff has been kept in the dark about their status.

And watching his clock management and lack of awareness at times makes me wanna punch him in the throat. Plus, he eats grass.

It's all academic if he wants to stay in broadcasting, but do you really think Cowher wouldn't be hungry to build a winner? The guy is as intense as they come. Don't you think he would want to be successful where Shottenheimer, Shannahan (and even to a degree, Gibbs II) were not? No way he comes here (or anywhere) to collect a paycheck. I don't think that's the right measure of the man. Again, all academic, it would appear.

If what many others a suggesting is true, it won't be Danny making that decision, it will be Bruce Allen. I could see Allen choosing an unknown if he felt it was the right guy.

Sure, Will. Dan Snyder bought the Redskins so Bruce Allen could select the Head Coach. By the way, I've got a bridge I'd like to sell you. :rolleyes:

Re: Who Do You Want to Be The Head Coach?
 

I'm not even saying that it's true, but a lot of people on here believe that. I'm trying to believe Danny is hands off, but we'll see.

The more I read about James Franklin, the more and more I like him. He might not be ready just yet (I think he is) but man would I love to give him a chance, he's no Spurrier.

Russ Grimm is my choice. He is a Redskin and wont make them look worse when things go bad.

Re: Who Do You Want to Be The Head Coach?
 

From Rich Tandler's site:

[I]Here are five quotes about Bisaccia:[/I]

[I]1. “Oh, my goodness. You have to talk to the man,” said Bucs Hall of Fame defensive tackle Warren Sapp. “You can see the passion and fire in him. He has the ability to touch the star player or the kid who has no shot. The man is special. I love Rich.”

2. “He’s full of energy, and he’s genuine,” said Bucs safety John Lynch. “And he can tell some great stories.”

3. “He’s one of these guys who just has an infectious personality, and I think that’s a really important trait for all coaches,” said Cowboys coach Jason Garrett. “The players play as hard for him as I’ve ever seen any players play for any coach.”

4. “I would say to sum him up, he’s a guy that you would go to war for,” said Chargers linebacker and special teams ace Bront Bird. “He’s a true leader of men. His intensity, passion and most of all knowledge of the craft brings out the very best of his players.”

5. “He’s an excellent coach,” said Jon Gruden, Bisaccia’s boss for eight seasons while with the Bucs. “He’s as versatile a coach as I’ve been around. He could coach any position. I strongly considered making him our defensive line coach when Rod Marinelli left town. I let him coach running backs, and he did an outstanding job.”[/I]

Nope, because everyone who used to be a Redskin is a reincarnation of Vince Lombardi.

I like hearing this, but wasnt Mike Singletary firey, passionate, and an outstanding motivator? I think if surrounded by an excellent staff it would still be a risk. Our greatest asset, RG3, would this type of coach work with him is the bigger question. Im willing to give a new coach a shot more than a retread.

[QUOTE=Paintrain;1053246]Did Cowher lie also yesterday when he said the same EXACT thing?[/QUOTE]

Sadly, probably not. My guess is that they aren't talking although I hope I am wrong.

Re: Who Do You Want to Be The Head Coach?
 

I wouldn't be surprised if they did talk to Cowher at some point, just not about him taking the job though. Probably more along the lines of picking his brain about potential candidates.
