Behind closed doors, which is just as it should be. It's possible that the "sources" for this info are wrong, but it seems to be the one consistent thing we are hearing. I have no reason to doubt that it is happening.

Well right now all of this stuff is rumors. Not sure of the guys name but he is the reporter on the skins network and is on the Riggo show. He has said several times that he does not have a clue of what is going on except for who has been interviewed.

Ouch, and once again Irish won't respond to something that totally destroys his pessimistic views.

Make GW head coach. Keep Al Saunders. Get rid of Don Breaux.

Re: GW might not be the smart choice.

Any coach that is not GW means we are going through a rebuilding year or two.

I don't think any DC fan wants that.

I think people are really starting to over think this.

Was it the 5 threads dedicated to Jim Mora that tipped you off?

Re: GW might not be the smart choice.

I read the article and found the writer's logic and reasoning to be borderline preposterous. I put it on the level of (a) people eat more ice cream in the summer, (b) more homicides are committed in summer therefore, (c) eating more ice cream causes more homicides

Re: GW might not be the smart choice.

Not entirely accurate to say Belichick "bombed" in Cleveland. The team steadily improved during his first four years, leading to a playoff victory against Parcells and New England in '94. Right afterwards, though, Modell announced his decision to uproot the team to Baltimore, resulting in a lame-duck year and a situation that NO coach could survive.

For the record, I have no problem with GW as coach. My problem is with Danny and his chief fluffer (Vinny) picking players, giving away draft picks, and turning our salary cap into a giant Ponzi scheme. The ideal scenario: GW is joined by Floyd Reese, his buddy from Tennessee and one of the more successful and resourceful GMs in recent history. Vinny goes to work for Six Flags.

Re: GW might not be the smart choice.

He's played one season. Most "franchise" QBs get at least a few seasons to make their bones (Peyton, Palmer, Eli, Rivers, Leftwich, McNabb, Vince Young, Cutler, Bulger). If you're ready to jettison a QB after 3/4 of a season on a team riddled with injuries, you probably don't have the patience for this game. Point being, JC has played solid with some rookie mistakes, which is the best you can expect out of 99% of the 1st year starters out there. If you don't give it time, we will never have a franchise quarterback. It worked for Gibbs in the 80s, but it's not the winning formula in today's NFL.
