Seriously though, I have mixed feelings too. It's a gamble I'm not sure I would have taken. This is going to require patience which I don't know how much Snyder has and I know Redskins fans have very, very little

Hey ... here's a solution to you guys bashing the hire...

Bring in Mariucci as OC... he can show Zorn the ropes... they both know the West Coast Offense... from Walsh/Holmgren... there you go

hey... just an idea... Mariucci said he wants to get back coaching... no HC jobs open... they have the same offensive philosophy

Only problem is ... I don't think Snyder was impressed with him...

Hey, I hear you. I hope this guy showed VC and DS a playbook that would rival Bill Walsh. Anything less and you have to think this is a very strange hire. Remember, he was brought on as an OC 2 weeks ago which was already a step up in the ranks. He never had a chance to prove himself at that level and now he's the HC. I pray all the Zorn lovers are right.

OC showing the HC the ropes. The fact that that would even be necessary defies belief.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one feeling uncomfortable with this hiring. I'm surprised that so many people are unconditionally stoked. I'll withhold judgment in case Snyder is trolling the site checking out public opinion (I seriously don't think any message boards, including this venerable site, had anything to do with the hiring process - I just can't allow myself to believe that).

I will tell you something that I tell people down here in slack-jaw yee haw land everyday... do not fear what you see as different or new. The "ain't broke don't fix it" doesnt apply here so we are just going to have to accept it no matter how uncomfortable it may be at first... whoa this sounds like a whole different thing... but i sware i am talking about coaches.
