What do you think of these guys?? And is there any chance Lovie, Gwilliams or Whisenhunt come aboard?

Bill O'Brien: Potential to be great, but I think you have to be patient with him

Gruden: He's a small town guy and I worry how he would handle DC (fans and media)

Briles: I don't know. I don't like that he doesn't have any NFL experience at all. It's a big risk I think that I'm too timid to take a chance on

Shaw: Spoke to him end of last week, he reiterated he doesn't want to leave for the NFL

Whisenhunt: Very solid coach, can he work with RG3's skill set? I don't know

GWilliams: Could very easily see him returning, but as a DC

Lovie: Don't see it happening

Grimm: Don't see that either

Other than Lovie, not a single person listed strikes me as a sure fire upgrade over Shanahan. I understand it's trendy to hate on Shanahan now, but Why buy out Shanahan and his staffs contracts for someone who's not clearly better?

Lovie is like the sixth best coach on that list.

And he's the only one remotely qualified for the job. Everyone else is a gamble with an unproven and/or negative track record at the nfl level.

Only if you don't know anything about them.

Wrong,, Dolphins do know what they're doing.

I think Shanahan stays ,I think everyone stays in place .I just think DS is more evolved in this then some of you think .Sometimes the best reaction is none at all .

I think you don't know how to get rid of things that serve no purpose anymore, and progress

Sure I do. I'd get rid of The diva quarterback and keep the hall of game coach.

Snyder needs to recruit a strong coaching staff around him. Bringing in GWilliams as DC, Grimm as Assistant HC/ Oline. Hue Jackson WR coach.

Per Obrien and patience for him, I think all of Redskins nation from owner to majority of fans have shown patience the last four years AND it will continue as long as we see competence on game day.

I like that Gruden is a small town guy, maybe it's perfect in that he's NOT looking for the limelight. Keep his head down and focus on the team.

Why is Lovie not happening? It irks me because I see Lovie as the perfect fit assuming we have a great OC, which you need anyway. His players always give 100% on the field and he also has that no nonsense factor. Keeps his head down and focuses on the team. Doesn't conjure up bullshit for the media. In many ways he's the opposite of Shanahan. Lovie is a high character guy IMO and will win a Lombardi one day. Just a great fit for DC and RG IMO. I'm pissed there's no interest and wanna know who's to blame?
