[Dirtbag59]

Mooch is a horrible liar, and for all you freudian scholars out there, maybe
basically means yes.

Anyone with any experience picking up women already knows that...

I haven't read all of the responses regarding Mariucci, but I kept thinking why Snyder would not announce a HC prior to the Super Bowl. If it was Fassel, then would that announcement really be a distraction. And the whole Fassel feeling "used." This means that the announcement has to do with someone still working in/around the Super Bowl. Mariucci seems like the one. I can't see them hiring McDaniels or Spragnoli (?) because they would want their own staff.

Again, typical Redskins offseason of too much time, rumors, and thought.

Let's hope for the best.

I thought the league madated this week that no announcements were to
occur to supersede the Superbowl events. Thus DS is waiting till after the Superbowl.

[MTK]

I think the NFL frowns on any big announcements the week of the Super Bowl, they don't want anything distracting from the SB spectacle.

[QBall]

After thinking it over I can get used to Mooch.

At least he has a SuperBowl Ring and experience with San Fran.

Detroit was a doomed franchise with Matt Millen the worst NFL executive in the businesss today. He makes Vinny look like the PATS GM!

I remember when Emmitt Smith announced his retirement at the Super Bowl during the week. I think that it does take away from the teams playing and their moment. Besides, if they wait until after the Pro Bowl then Mooch can recruit the FA's in Hawaii.

[rypper11]

Favre was on NFLN and told Mooch, "It's a good thing we don't play the Redskins next year."
Hmmm..

Don't know if anyone already posted this but Josh McDaniels just signed a 1 year extension with the Patriots and is no longer available for the Redskins head coaching position - found out watching Comcast Sportsnet after the Caps game tonight - sorry I don't have a link - just passing along info.

From foxsports:

McDaniels staying put
Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels will not pursue the Redskins head coaching vacancy, a league source said here. McDaniels has committed to the Patriots for 2008. . . .

[Darrell_Green_28]

Yep you saw that too Rypper. It makes you think its a done deal but Mooch is just coming short of sayint Yes im going to be the next Redskins coach

[Sean"Big Hurt"Taylor]

Let's this hire this guy and get it over with. Mooch is the best man for the job out of the other coahes we'd interview. He has a swagger that Snyder likes, he knows the west coast offense in and out, he is big name in the NFL, and most importantly he knows how to develop quarterbacks. (Just not named Harrington). I can not wait until we hire this guy and I will be alright from the pain I have felt throughout this offseason. For some reason I really believe that Snyder has learned from his past mistakes and is trying to develop a team the right way. I'm willing to give Cerrato a pass to be the man that handles our personnel as well. We will be alright. I'm glad that we will not see that pathetic conservation offense anymore.

[SFREDSKIN]

WJLA reports that Danny and his cousin Vinnie are in Arizona as we speak interviewing him. The PFT article says they are in DC interviewing him. So what's the real story?


ABC 7 Sports has learned that Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder and Vinny Cerrato, the Redskins' vice-president for football operations, are in Phoenix to interview Steve Mariucci as a possible replacement for Joe Gibbs.
