Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?
I don't want any holdovers from this staff. Clean house. We need an experienced professional coach with NFL experience.

I think we just need a HC who knows how to make adjustments during the game. That runs a system that works. I get so irritated at the minds set of "I'm going to run my scheme and if it works awesome if it doesn't... I was out coached." MS makes his adjustments at halftime. Our DC has no idea what adjustment means. or so it seems. |

Really want either Shaw or an OC like Bevell or Roman.

Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?
My favorite thing about Art Briles is how unapologetically aggressive he is. The home run ball is not something that teams have traditionally done as a "we'll keep doing this until you stop it" thing. Scoring on the next play is Baylor's identity.
I think it's important to get an Air Raid guy in this division because it will give us a schematic advantage over Chip Kelly's rushing attack. The rules favor the air raid. Can't wait until Griffin is putting up cartoonish numbers in a scheme where he's going entire games without getting touched back there. Of course, the pass pro schemes are my number one question with Briles.

I suppose, now, it's probably inevitable that the Redskins will be rolling with a new coaching staff next year. My only word of caution on that is the "anybody but Shanahan is better" approach is NOT the way to go. Because, just anybody isn't a better option than Mike Shanahan. No matter how this season ends (and it looks to end badly) I maintain my admiration for the good things/the right things that Mike Shanahan has done for this team. The bottom line is, I realize, wins and loses. With that said, if what Smootsmack has said is what's happening in terms of the front office, then let the new GM pick the head coach and let that head coach pick his coordinators and assistant coaches. I don't personally have a favorite in terms of head coaching candidates, but I do have traits/personalities/work ethics that need to be a must if he is to succeed in Washington. The new head coach is going to have to be a disciplinarian, first and foremost. It is not acceptable to bring in a "bright offensive mind" that has no idea how to establish discipline. I'd argue that it's pretty easy to find a bright offensive mind - but none of it works without discipline. Secondly, the coach needs to have a work ethic that is common to what we saw when Joe Gibbs coached this team in the 80's. Someone who's willing to live, eat, and breathe Redskins football. Someone who is willing to put in the hours it takes to make this team a winner. If he's not willing to stay (and live) at Redskins Park until the wee hours of the morning, I don't want him in Washington. Lastly, the coach needs to have an eye of talent. It's not always the GM (alone) that brings in the players - the coaches have say as well. This new coach will need to work closely with the GM to bring in exactly what he needs. It can't simply be "we bring in the players, you coach them" approach. That doesn't work. The next six weeks will be interesting.

It sure bodes better than showing up, getting paid, and home on time. The coaching position requires as much sacrifice and dedication than the players. Heck in any successful business, upper mgt works just as hard as the working class. Gibbs slept in his office. What do you think would happen if he gave up when sleepy or if his tummy hurt? Good teams has work ethic that trickles down. I love hearing about guys who Arrive early and care to perfect their craft and want to win. That's why we've been upgrading and investing in team facilities. No more mercenaries or pay check attendance collectors. Coaches an players are in need to want to lead and work hard Hail Skinsguy |

Second, as I said before. All the crap about sleeping in the office is pure overrated BS. So you're saying if the new coach isn't willing to stay at the park until 3am you don't want him?? LOL. That statement is laughable and stupid. It doesn't even deserve a comeback. Glad you're not running the team. As for Ritchie...his entire staff on the defensive side of the ball was usually out of the Park by 7pm or 8pm. This was confirmed by a PR person that I knew that worked for the Redskins back in 92-94. During that time I was a bar manager ( in my mid 20's) and we had a show that booked Redskins every Monday during the season. Ray Brown was one of nicest guys you'd ever want to meet....so was Andre Collins. Gibbs and the guys on offense would stay til.."the wee hours" of the morning"...as you like to put it. Both sides of the ball were successful during that time period. My point is...it doesn't take coaches sleeping at Redskins Park to win. |
