If your using fancy words to say to many cooks in the kitchen I'm with ya. lol.

I'm just glad that Mooch is still in the running, but at this point I'm on board with anyone except for Meeks, for some reason I don't feel like he'd fit well here.

I also think it's funny how we call the Paul Brown WC when it originated at Ohio State and Walsh who liked the Coryell system and was using it until his QB got hurt and had to put in a second string who could not make the long throws decided to shorten the routes. He then takes it to the 49ers and it's the WC. When it came from the East. Now you take Coryell and Sid Gilman's system which was developed in San Diego. Any chance we set the record straight and change the names. Gibbs ran the WC and Walsh ran the EC.

Please Dan, Hire Arnold Schwarznager for HC!

I think that Blanche as a D-line coach turned D-Coordinator and Spag as a LB/DB coach turned D-Coordinator could work together well as Head Coach and D Coordinator. That said, I would like to get a little more help for Zorn. Maybe we could bring in Fassel as the QB coach... (LOL)!!!!

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.

No, I'd have been OK with the hiring of Gibbs back in 1981 because it was based on the recommendation of a solid GM who knew how to put a football team together: Bobby Beathard.

If Spags turns out to be the guy, I'm still behind my team all the way no matter who the coach is. I'd be willing to give him the benefit of doubt. And I'm not against the notion of going after a young, hungry coach without experience who is eager to prove himself. I just think there are better options on the table with Fassel and Mariucci, and I do believe there's a rush to judgement of sorts on Spagnuolo based only on his success with the Giants who have better personnel than we do up front.

I just can't wait for this thing to get settled once and for all.

Sounds like you're more critical of Vinny rather than Dan. I do agree though, I'm ready for it to be settled so the new era can begin.
