Re: Who Do You Want to Be The Head Coach?
 
All of these candidates are all pretty close and are unknown to what they can bring to this team. At least this thread does bring some humor to it, I dont care who they hire. I cant wait to they do so we can move on into the offseason and wait until March to talk about FA, then May for the draft.

[quote=OmahaRedskins;1053582]Why is he not a good HC prospect?[/quote]

Again, nothing special about his offense above the big time playmakers he has to work with. No HC experience. That team is led by the defense and defensive coaching.

On a personal level I hate the drunk driving. Seen too many lives ruined by it. I think the only way Gruden gets an HC job is because of his brother and all the connections to BA, which means he's our guy. Maybe Cleveland would take a chance on him because it's such a shit franchise but even that I doubt.

I'd like to see how Gruden would scheme around rg3 ability as a runner. When you talk about other OC coaching candidates, bevell and say like roman, these guys have develop athletic qb with the ability to gain large chunks on the ground. Could Gruden do that with the 3rd or would he go the route of dalton development in a more traditional pocket passer?

Wait, if jay Gruden is the front runner for the skins HC position, is this why they haven't let go of Haslett?

Andy Dalton is not a big time playmaker, for starters. And Jay Gruden is quite creative with the playmakers (and non-playmakers) he does have.

He does have HC experience, just not at the NFL level. But neither did Joe Gibbs, John Harbaugh, Bill Parcells, Bill Cowher, and so on when they got their first jobs and won Super Bowls with them.

As for the drunk driving, maybe you should get to know the personal lives of other successful coaches as well.

I agree DUI's do damage many lives and it is inexcusable but many in this league have done a lot worse. Also agree he has connections to Allen because of his brother, but he has not been handed anything. He has coached and worked his own way to where he is. BTW we are a shit franchise too. lol

He does have HC experience. You'd do yourself a great deal of service if you would research something. It's about as lame as you commenting on the play of the team when you didn't even watch the game. C'mon man.

All I want to know about Gruden is, does he have the passion to kick his opponents ass? If he does, then hire him. I want a Jim Harbaugh type, someone who hates to lose.

Belichick?

Don't mistake me. Jay Gruden is an upgrade over Mike and Kyle, especially if he turns the defense over to the right guy. But it's disappointing nonetheless. I was hoping BA was good for something more than bringing in his buddy's troubled little brother. Perception is reality, and I don't think Jay Gruden to Washingtion helps with any bad perceptions of the franchise. But, if it opens the door for Jon Gruden, maybe it becomes the right situation...

Well I searched the internets for football coaches drunken driving. I got Sandusky jr (no surprise there) Adam Zimmer (related to mike Zimmer?) and our new HC Gruden. Looks like a pretty small group of lowlifes.

Who's the big name you're referring to SS? And why's he gotten a pass from the nfl?

You know what? It's not even worth it. Your last post pretty much let me know you've made up your mind about Jay Gruden and anything he's accomplished you want to dismiss because of his last name and one mistake in his life.

Do you really think that he only drove drunk once.... The time he got caught? Please. I actually like jay gruden, but it does call in question his maturity and leadership. It's definitely something for the CON column and it shouldn't be ignored. Still, I think he's one of the better options we have. We picked a bad year to fire an excellent hall of fame-worthy coach, so it's not like there are a lot of legitimately good options.

Well geez drunk driving actually makes you a better person. Who knew! Shame on the nfl allowing this kind of crap among HCs. Players are young and dumb enough to make bad decisions without the team leader doing it and actually justifying it in public. Unbelievable. I hope the niners get destroyed next wknd.

WTF? How is Jay Gruden "troubled"? By a DUI many years ago?

JG has done wonders with Dalton and the Bengals offense. And, although neither you nor I know him, professionals who do seem to think that he has the leadership qualities required of a HC beyond the X's and O's. This is why several teams, not just his "buddies" at the Skins, are considering him for HC.

I'm not lobbying for Jay Gruden - I don't have a favorite in the process. But to dismiss him the way that you have is not just disrespectful, it's football ignorant.

I just find it funny that you think a convicted drunk driver with no nfl head coaching experience is a better coach for this team than mike shanahan. the blind faith you and others here put in these unproven guys is far stronger than the faith of those nuttjobs who believe the universe is 6000 years old. Mike shanahan was the best thing to happen to this franchise since Snyder owned the team and half of you are cheering that he's gone. Stupid, stupid stupid.

Is it really such a stretch that someone may be able to learn from and move on after getting a DUI? I don't think someone should not be considered just because of one mistake they made. Especially when it was 8 years ago.

The dude just went 3-13. There is no justifiable excuse to keep him when he does that in year 4.
