This guy could be a darkhorse and has roots in the DC area having been an assistant at Maryland and JMU.

IMO the only way Briles is pursued is as a Zorn like last resort. If we get turned down by every NFL coach we pursue I could see Allen and Snyder going after Briles. IF he were to come, big IF, he would have to win fast-like year one and win big-like 10 wins & division title or it will be a freaking disaster at the levels unseen before. Briles would have to come STRONG with a NFL laden staff of assistants.

If Griff didnt go to Baylor, and there wasnt all this talk about DS catering to his "diva" qb, etc - would everyone be so against Briles?

Not as opposed (though there are many other reasons to be opposed) but then again he probably wouldn't be a candidate either. Don't hear his name discussed anywhere else, even Houston where he would make the most sense.

Still wouldn't want em, I just don't think he's an NFL guy

Fair enough. Was just curious if you guys thought DC wasnt a good fit or the NFl wasnt a good fit.

My main opposition to Briles has nothing to do with RGIII. Briles has no NFL experience of any kind and IMO (and hopefully Snyderallen agree) this is a dealbreaker.

But there's no way he gets offered the job if that's his plan.

Re: Choose Your 2014 Redskins Head Coach (Volume 2)
 

I remember when G Williams left DC he said something like you never know what can happen down the road and he might be back. His defense won that SB as much as Payton/Brees offense. Hard to find that kind of experience IMO. Is there another candidate who's been part of a SB winning team?

And it doesn't require an offensive HC to maximize RG's potential. Belichick is a defensive guru, and I'd say his mentors hip of Brady has been pretty solid. Another similarity between belichick and Williams, both were very underwhelming in their first HC experiences.

I keep reading about teams asking for permission to talk to candidates and I'm not seeing the Redskins mentioned in any of these stories
What are they waiting for? There's five open positions and only so many candidates and assistants to be had, we need to get moving
I am worried as much about the assistant coaches as I am the head coach, I'm afraid there will be slim pickings left

nice comprehensive list by Clayton by names we've discussed[/quote]

a few of those names make me vomit.

Briles would be ridiculous. 58 years old with no nfl experience. this signing would mean that RG3 is running the show which is pathetic. I doubt any other teams would consider Briles.

Brian Kelly? really? i really dont think he has been all that great at notre dame. He is an offensive guy yet his qbs usually are average or suck, and his defense and luck are the only reason they ever got to that national championship game. and oh, they were destroyed. there is nothing special about kelly.

not really sold on sumlin either. great college coach but what makes him an nfl guy? i'd rather see some more up and coming assistants on that list.

I'd definitely have him near the top of the list for potential defensive coordinators.

I don't know I just want a good coach.
