Well, I was the first to suggest Briles.

Hopefully it happens.

Please no. That would be the worst thing to happen to the Redskins for 3 reasons:

1. There's NOTHING to indicate he's prepared for or has the structure for being an NFL coach.

2. We've been down this road before with Spurrier and college coaches with no pro experience need a strong organization around them, which we seriously lack.

3. He immediately undermines RG3 as a leader in the locker room. RG becomes the coaches pet and there won't be many who trust that he won't have torn loyalty.

On the last point specifically, while Griffins locker room standing with vets can be called into question, the vast majority of his teammates won't be in the NFL within three years. Because of that, it isn't particularly important to avoid a situation where the locker room perceives RG3 as a coaches pet. If Briles comes here, it's to build around him and RG3, not to try to fit the current talent to his philosophy.
