If we don't go with Grilliams I will be quite upset. Assuming we hire someone other than Williams, I guess Danny's "If it ain't broke don't fix it" mantra applies to himself and not to the coaching staff.

This is the best depiction I have seen of Synder. I was thinking, why Snyder would not want to hire a real GM, and it dawned on me. He is a fan, just like all of us, that knows little about the game. But, if any of us were as rich as him, and owned the Redskins, we would do the same thing.

Rumors are pretty heavy that Holmgren is going to step down at the end of this season, and Jim Mora Jr. is expected to be named head coach of the Seahawks.

Re: Who is Next?

I think it will probably be Gregg Williams and he's going to bring in Jim Schwartz to be his Assistant Head Coach-Defense

Now that's a unique prediction that sounds good!

From what P. King posted about candidates (I respect King's work, btw, though he has earned a bad rep here) this week, Schwartz sounds like the kind of guy we need; background in economics & understands the value aspect of players w/the cap.

This is why when Smootsmack speaks, we listen. Although you're not right on point, you're the only one thats mentioned that name.

Check out JLC's latest blog entry:

Jim Schwartz
Schwartz, who replaced Gregg Williams as the leader of the Tennessee defense, has been identified as a candidate for the Redskins coaching vacancy, league sources said, and is expected to interview for the position this week, possibly as soon as today.

Schwartz is a Baltimore native who recently interviewed for the Ravens job as well. Several NFL sources said that they took the identification of Schwartz as a candidate as another sign that Williams, who the players strongly support, does not appear to be the front runner. Williams actually helped break in Schwartz as a young coach on Jeff Fisher's staff.

Schwartz has annually had a strong defense with the Titans and began his career in the Cleveland/Baltimore organization.

Bill Cowher, a CBS analyst, has continued to tell associates that he has no plans to end his two-year hiatus. Some league sources have suggested Seattle defensive backs coach Jim Mora, a former head coach in Atlanta, as a possibility for the Redskins as well at some point, but the Seahwaks are still in the playoffs and he can not be contacted at this time.

Other available coaches with prior head coaching experience include Brian BIllick and Marty Schottenheimer, but the Redskins are not expected to go that route at this point, though things could change. Williams is seen as the top in house candidate, but sources who have been in contact with members of Washington's existing coaching staff say that none of those coaches has been given any indication that they are in line for the opening at this point.

The agent for one of Washington's coaches said that he believes that the Redskins would have given the staff some hint by now that the top candidate is already within the building by now if that were the case.

Re: Who is Next?

By the way, interesting article from Wilbon. He doesn't think the Redskins will shy away from the high profile coaching pick.

Re: Who is Next?

Also, another thing to point out about Schwartz....

Quote:
A native of Baltimore, Md. (6/2/66), Schwartz was a four-year letterman at linebacker for the Hoyas of Georgetown University, where he earned his degree in Economics. He also received Distinguished Economics Graduate honors at Georgetown and earned numerous honors in 1988, including Division III CoSIDA/GTE Academic All-America, All-America, and team captain.


He's a Hoya! I like him already!!! Here's his bio: Titans Radio: Titans Defensive Coordinator Jim Schwartz

do you realize how much crap jeff would get if he was the head coach of the skins. if he lost one game he'd want to shoot himself to end his misery because of all the skins fans in his face about how he isn't experienced.

Re: Who is Next?

I am extremely concerned to hear that Jason LaC even MENTIONED Jim Mora from Seattle (via Atlanta). P-l-e-a-s-e God, no, not him, please! If he is even remotely close to a table at Mortons w/ the Danny I'm gonna hurl chunks.
