Choose Your 2014 Redskins Head Coach (Volume 2)

I seriously think a Briles hire would be Spurrier 2.0. The absolute only way it would work is if Briles had a defensive cordinator/assistant head coach with extensive experience not named Haslett.

I think Briles would be smart enough to surround himself with a strong staff. He doesn't strike me as a Spurrier type that would take the job for the $$ and think he can hit the golf course by 4pm every day.

I think this goes without saying based on my previous posts, but I'm with you 100%.

Im jumping on the Danny Smith bandwagon. On his show, Cooley said that Smith was one of the best leaders he's ever known and every single player on the team would run through a wall for the guy. He also said that every player, even those who didnt do special teams, felt open going to Smith about anything. Cooley said he was the only coach on the team he truly trusted. I seem to remember watching games, and Smith was always in Shanahans ear, helping him decide when to go for it, when to punt, when to take a time out, etc.

I think if we want a leader, we should hire Smith and pair him with an up and comming OC and DC.

I will say that I remember when Gibbs was going to call the 2nd time out in a row that Smith ran over and tried to stop him, do y'all remember that?

i firmly believe gibbs did that to protect our kicker from feeling bad if he missed the kick and the team didnt win for ST bc of that against the bills. before the penalty it was a 50-50 chance for our kicker (suisham, cundiff or novak?). sloppy field?

i firmly believe gibbs made the decision to put people (or person) in front of a game.

no need to lambast me, call me silly or stupid or ask for proof.

just my firm belief. i think gibbs is that much a spiritual and paternal person that he tried to protect the kicker from a lifetime of guilt. right or wrong

Gibbs is a great guy, but I think the most basic explanation, that he lost track of the situation, makes the most sense.
