All are defensive stats:

Redskins - 18th in YPG allowed, 27th in YPP allowed, 30th in PPG allowed

Browns - 9th in YPG allowed, 3rd in YPP allowed, 23rd in PPG allowed


Considering the current choice seems to be Haslett (Status Quo), yeah Horton would be a good option. Yeah, their red zone defense wasn't great, but comparatively..................

Plus, according to (NFL Football Stats - NFL Team Opponent Red Zone Scoring Percentage (TD only) on TeamRankings.com), Cleveland RedZone TD scoring percetage was 64 percent, ours was 63.33. If those two things are equal, wouldn't you want the team that allows less yards (and less red zone trips) overall?

Re: Jay Gruden hired as head coach of the Redskins
I would like to have a guy like Ken Norton Jr be our Defensive Coordinator. He is nasty and I have heard him talk, sounds like an intelligent guy. He runs a 4-3, which makes him a real dark horse. But this is the kind of guy we need coaching our defense.

I have beating the Ken Norton Jr. drum for a couple months now. But I guess we are going to have to watch Ole Jimmy look silly on the sidelines for another year.

I think it's only a matter of time before Norton gets his chance.

Yeah man, that guy coaches those players with passion. Like a Greg Williams or a Rex Ryan. That's what our defense needs.

I was Ken Norton III linebacker coach when he was playing pop-warner and I was a senior in high school… talk about pressure. Would be a hire I'd be happy about.

Re: Jay Gruden hired as head coach of the Redskins
Ray Horton or Jim Haslett as DC? No brainer go sign Horton ASAP as our DC, you know the skins will screw this one and keep hazmat. Horton started his coaching career with the Redskins working under Norv Turner as an assistant DB coach.

Just saw on twitter we interviewed Ben Kotwica Special Teams coordinator of the Jets. He has an interesting story. I like the idea of him here.
