Hmm...Mystery HC Candidate to Get Interview
 
As much of you probably just heard on FOX's pregame show prior to the Packers-Giants game, NFL Insider Jay Glazer reported that a "mystery candidate" has emerged in the Skins' head coach search and may get an interview with Snyder this week.

Who in the hell could that be?

Producer to Jay Glazer. "We are going to ask you about the Redskins coaching search on the pregame."

Jay Glazer to Producer. "What should I say? It looks like maybe Williams."

Producer. "No. No. That won't do at all. Why don't you make some shit up. That's why we pay you NFL talking heads right."

Jay Glazer. "I hear there could be a mystery interview."

Producer. "Genius."

I am guessing, Snyder has taken so long to anounce Greg Williams is the new coach, so he can keep the players and the fans in limbo, as long as possible. Makes perfect sense.

Mods, how about a poll??

Bill Cowher
Dick Vermiel
Steve Mariucci
Russ Grimm
Pete Carroll
Dennis Green
Jim Fassel

Re: Hmm...Mystery HC Candidate to Get Interview
 
I would have dismissed this out of hand immediately if it were not for the fact that Glazer has gotten some good scoops (the only guy to get the Pats sideline taping video) and this interview process has gone on too long if GW is the guy. I wouldn't doubt if Danny-boy has someone else in mind.

Mr. Snyder is waiting for the growth hormones to kick in on his Lombardy clone.

Steve Mariucci, probably makes alot os sense, because he is probably tight Cerrato.

I am thinking they are just fishing for news as there really isn't much going on around the league.

I say Tuesday afternoon presser with GW named as the coach.

skinsfaninok 01-20-2008 09:00 PM

Re: Hmm...Mystery HC Candidate to Get Interview
 
I think its either Bill Cowher or pete carroll. Honestly if GW would get the job i think they would have gave it to him already. I have said that i would rather have Cowher more than anyone, but GW is 2nd on my list! I am worried its gonna be Carroll. I just dont trust college coaches after Spurrier!

Re: Hmm...Mystery HC Candidate to Get Interview
 
It has been reported that Nick Saban was seen boarding Redskins 1 followed shortly by Bobby Petrino. Looks like this may be a done deal with Petrino taking over as head coach and Saban replacing GW as the defensive coordinator. They are giving Saunders two weeks to pursue other opportunities. If he decides to part from the Skins, Petrino will also call plays next year.

Sorry no link :)

Re: Hmm...Mystery HC Candidate to Get Interview
 
I am the mystery candidate!!!!!!!! Mr. Snyder liked my record with the Skins in franchise mode playing Madden '99 and'06. Shoot, I won the SB with Frerotte and Westbrook. My CPU generated QB P Harry threw for 70 TDs and 5,000+ yards one season. I had 2 perfect 16-0 records and damn, more titles than Lombardi and Gibbs combined. Look for the footballs to fly next season no matter who the QB is. Look for a QB and Wr to be drafted also. DE and OG or OT is going to be our first round pick.

I'll certainly be glad when this process is finally complete so the nonsense can cease along with it.

I think that Greg Williams is going to get the job basically to keep the seat warm for Bill Cowher next year but....I think they should have the mentality that Williams can lead the Skins into the playoffs again (which I think he can). Williams has relationships with the defense which is a good thing.

Many will agree with your assessment, but all the constant speculation, rumor after rumor gets to be a bit much aftrer a period of time. It's just time to wait for an anouncement to be made.

The Hamburgler, hmm? No so sure I like that. I understand his entire offensive philosophy is to run around in tight little circles while mumbling incoherently, shortly after which his runner is typically caught five yards behind the line of scrimmage. He was unable to mastermind a simple ground attack that could get past a red-headed idiot wearing clown shoes, a slow footed purple monstrosity-like thing, and a police man with a cheeseburger for a head. How is he going to be successful against formidable NFL defenses?

Yeah, I'm getting bored with this HC chit chat too. Enough of this, let's just wait until someone is hired!

Re: Hmm...Mystery HC Candidate to Get Interview
 
I do not want thte guy and it is a stretch....but has anyone mentioned Jimmy Johnson? It is an extreme long shot, but he did have to work tonight so it would explain why they had to wait for the interview. The only reason to wait leads me to beleive it is one of the assistants on one four teams or someone that has a visible TV job like JJ. Plus he is good with player personnel.

Mystery solved! Cowher has been the mystery man all along!

Great pick, and a great coaching hire LDS!

Now we can all move into some normalcy during the off-season.

You can't just judge him by his first head coaching stint. He had no talent, and McDonalds was going through cap hell. Remember Arch Deluxe? McStuffin? You can't win with that!

Re: Hmm...Mystery HC Candidate to Get Interview
 
Am I the only one who heard the NY-GB halftime show? I heard their analyst say Mora was Snyder's #1 choice for HC. This pretty much puts GW in the dog house even if Snyder decides to give him a 1 year chance, which leads me back to the whole stink around this thing: Snyder is a flatout pisspoor owner/operator. That kind of info should never get leaked, which means Snyder should never share it w/ anyone who would possibly leak it. Being out west I don't know anything of his business background but I seriously wonder how this guy got to where he is. Almost every decision he makes regarding his football team turns into a clusterfuck. On top of all that, I read a newspaper article that talked about Snyder refusing to take any advice from successful owners, including his refusal to listen to other owners speak at the annual conventions. Can anyone (from the D.C. area) confirm whether this is true?

makers i think you and i are only 2 of a very few people who dont want williams....i agree totally it will be bad if he is the new HC

rypper11 01-21-2008 09:54 AM

Re: Hmm...Mystery HC Candidate to Get Interview
 
So does this mean that Harbough has no shot and the Ravens are piss poor because Garret was offered the job but decided to stay in Dallas? Mora is a young coach who wasn't given much of a shot coaching a team that wants stars more than titles. I think he would have been a great choice but after interviewing he decided to stay in Seattle (he can say family reasons all he wants but I think he'd rather work under Holmgrem for another season and then take over there since Holmgrem will not be offered a contract extension).

Yea, w/ that logic Belecheck shouldn't haven't gotten another job. What did he do in Cleveland? That loser.

Come w/ an educated reason...

Re: Hmm...Mystery HC Candidate to Get Interview
 
I'm trying to be patient but if they don't announce a HC by early this week, i'm worried about GW's chances.

I don't trust DS and VC to make a good decision.

Someone else mentioned...Charlie Weiss...connections w/ Vinny thru Notre Dame??? Is this the mystery guy? Just a wild guess...

Some of the media are starting to just throw crap out there b/c they don't have anything though. Usually, though some of the crap winds up to be true. Getting impatient...do the right, smart thing and hire GW and let him go to work.
