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

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?

Lovie is one of the coaches that has the cache to pass on a HC job and IF Dungy doesn't like the Redskins situation Lovie could possibly feel the same way. who knows? just connecting dots

Obviously I'm biased in favor of the Skins but I still objectively think DC is the franchise with the most potential that will also be looking for a new HC, with Detroit as a possible tie.

Houston doesn't have a QB, and Lovie should know the importance of that simple fact given he'd have a ring, maye two, if he had a QB instead of Rex in Chicago.

We've got the QB, two RBs featuring different but both impressive skill sets, TEs, a breakout WR and franchise LT. We need a few olineman and another legit wr the offense is set. I think Lovie would make the current defensive personnel top ten. Add a standout safety and depth at corner and LB and we're set.

I consider the HC job here will be highly sought after.

I wouldn't necessarily say it would be a highly sought after spot, but the core of players that is the process of development should be appealing to a lot of coaches. It's the ancillary crap that no one wants to deal with.

No , you would be wrong ,I'm asking who (what individual) he thinks will take the job ?

By any coach wishing to A) Get paid and B) have the honor of carving out his own legacy by turning around a perennial loser of a team into a winning franchise again. What head coach worth anything would not want to take on that challenge? Also, Snyder has worked pretty hard to turn things around in the front office. Head coaches have no Vinny Cerrato to deal with anymore. That in itself makes the position a lot more attractive for many suitors. The only ones who think the position is not highly sought for are fans from opposing teams - especially in the same division, teams that are trying to grab a new head coach themselves, and the sports media talking heads who don't know what they're talking about.

One of the most well respected former coaches, Tony Dungy, has already said he would never work for an owner like Snyder. I'm sure several people around the league feel the same way. I think it's going to be hard to get one of the big names in here.

Smootsmack this was for you. What's the story with no love for Lovie in DC?

I don't know if we're interested. Maybe there is some interest because he does have a connection with Morocco Brown. But from Lovie's end, what I've heard is that he would like to stay in Texas (or at least out west), and he believes he's got a good shot at either the Houston or Dallas job.

Geez I'm surprised he would consider Dallas. Does he have a connection to Jerra?
Houston doesn't have a QB but will have a high enough pick to draft one I guess, or he gets Cutler or Mcgown in FA.

What's the connection with Moracco Brown?
