My list in no particular order:

HC:
Josh McDaniels (Pats)
Darrell Bevell (Seattle Seahawks)
Pete Carmichael, Jr. (New Orleans Saints)
Tom Clements (Green Bay Packers)
Jay Gruden (Cincinnati Bengals)
Greg Roman (San Francisco 49ers)
Todd Bowles(Zona)


OC/DC maybe HC:
Either of the Ryan IF paired with a proven OC
Mike Zimmer (Bengals)"
Lovie Smith
Hugh Jackson (Bengals)
Rick Dennison (Houston Texans) must be paired with a young OC
Dick LeBeau


DC/OC only:
Scott Linehan
Eric Mangini
Wade Phillips
Gary Kubiac


Key hires: OC or QB coach that comes from a proven passing scheme and has either (a) developed a young QB before ( has played QB before or has called plays before (even though they will most likely NOT be the primary playcaller here)
Staff:
QB Coach Ken Dorsey (Panthers)
OC/QB coach Phillip Montgomery (Baylor)
QB Coach-Jake Spavital (Texas A&M)
Kurt Roper OC from Duke
James Coley OC from Miami
OC/QB coach Scott Frost (Oregon State)
Zac Taylor (Dolphins)
He's an interesting name and if Greg Roman is in the mix, Mangini may be in the mix as well. Eric Mangini is taking the offensive with 49ers - ESPN

Shaw has stated he has no interest in leaving Stanford. With that being said though, every man has his price...

SS what's the real life chances of shaw coming here? I know it's a long shot but is there any hope?

I think Whisenhunt would be a great fit, and he has done some nice work with QB's including Phillip Rivers' bounce back this season and resurrecting Kurt Warner's career after a disastrous stint in New York.

Re: Choose Your 2014 Redskins Head Coach (Volume 2)

O'Brien may be the best choice if the goal is to try to win with Shanahan's players. Not that that's really a main goal, but it could be a perk.

O'Brien and Jay Gruden are both good talent evaluators, which is something that this franchise has struggled with since Marty. Having a coach that can tell the difference between a good player and a not as good player can really go a long way to helping out a young GM.

Re: Choose Your 2014 Redskins Head Coach (Volume 2)

The thing is, Griffin can look great in a wide variety of systems, so the Redskins can go very out of the box with this hire and pay it off. They don't have to focus on grabbing a known quantity.

The interesting thing about O'Brien's system is how rarely the quarterback runs. It would probably be great for Griffin's development. But on the other hand, there's a huge skill that we paid dearly for that would be largely pushed to the side.

Shaw: Spoke to him end of last week, he reiterated he doesn't want to leave for the NFL

Whisenhunt: Very solid coach, can he work with RG3's skill set? I don't know

GWilliams: Could very easily see him returning, but as a DC

Lovie: Don't see it happening

Grimm: Don't see that either
Do u know Shaw personally? If so beg him! Lol

Mike doesn't want to be here anymore that's y and I wonder what interest Todd Bowles has in coaching the skins

Named Griffin his starter after one practice.

He didn't want griffin to start this year. Schedter indicated he'd want to have a competition at the position if he were retained next year.... But that Snyder wouldn't let him. Shanahan wisely has seen enough of rg3 to know he doesn't deserve to be the unquestioned starter. If I had to choose between Shanahan and rg3, I'd choose the coach. He inherited a mess from zorn and Cerrato and then got stuck with 36MM in cap penalties that limited his ability to improve the team. Rg3 has trade value. I'd trade him and roll with cousins and see what Shanahan can do with a full compliment of draft picks and a ton of cap space to finally build the team he wants.

I wouldn't listen to anything that Schefter has to say about Shanahan.

The first bold is just moronic and the second bold is Shanahan's fault and really has little to nothing to do with Zorn. Not to mention the fact that the roster has been COMPLETELY turned over in the FOUR years that Shanahan has been coach.

I truly find it astonishing that there is anyone left defending Shanahan. I try to find something he does well... I cannot.
