[quote=Ruhskins;607406]I don't know why folks want an assistant or coordinator to become coach. After seeing the Zorn experiment become pretty much a failure, wouldn't you want an experienced coach? (i.e. Gruden, Shanny, etc.)[/quote]
All of those guys were positional coaches or coordinators at one point in time, sometimes you just find that guy.

Gibbs was an offensive coordinator, Walsh too and look what they did.

I guess I'm being a typical impatient Redskins fan asking for a proven head coach. Although I would have been happy with Son of Darth Hoody. LOL.

I gotta tell you I'm not sold on Gruden or Grimm. Maybe Shanahan. I'm just tired of seeing teams pluck that next guy from someone else's bench and turn into a playoff contender a few years later.

Re: Updated/Merged: Shanahan Rumors (Will He or Won't He?)
 

Two possibilities here:

Shanahan concludes he doesn't have quite enough money yet, puts his integrity into cold storage, and accepts the Redskins' job under Danny's direction.

Shanahan wants to build another Super Bowl winner, therefore tells Danny he cannot possibly accept the Redskins' job, where owner interference renders good football management impossible. Does anyone doubt that this position would be a non-starter with Danny?

In neither case, therefore, is Shanahan the solution to the Redskins' woes.

He's not coming. Move along . . . . nothing to see here.
