I happen to be against the hiring of Spagnuolo. I'd prefer someone with more experiece, like Fassel or Mariucci. I find it difficult to believe that Spagnuolo will be able to duplicate his success without the great pass rush he had in NY. Without that front four, he'd be no better than the defensive coaches we already have in place.

Sure, it’s easy to criticize Snyder. Heck, it’s a no-brainer thing to do! I mean, we all get it, Beems. Snyder had been a horrible owner. But in regards to guys with head coaching experience, they all have had to start somewhere. I bet you would have never hired Joe Gibbs back in 1980.

Spags can either be the greatest thing as head coach or another Steve Spurrier of the pros. But at least it’s not like he is having to start at ground zero here. The team is set in place. The coaching staff is set in place. All he has to do is come in and prove himself as a head coach. I assume the more success he has, the more control he’ll obtain. Still, I’m willing to give him a shot. If he pans out, we should have a good coach for the next decade or so. If he doesn’t, then we’re back to square one. But, there’s no guarantee we’re going to succeed with either Fassel or Mooch either. It’s all a crapshoot. They have experience, but neither have won Super Bowls.
