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

I'm not sure that I get the love for Lovie. In 9 seasons in Chicago:

wins 81
wins per year 9
losses 63
win pct. .563

3 playoffs in 9 years
playoffs win pct. .500
1 conference championship

That is an average to a bit above average record to me. But it is nothing that great. 2 out of every 3 years as a coach he watched the playoffs from the couch just like me.

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

I'm gonna toss a name out there, Aaron Kromer. Worked under Sean Payton and now Marc Trestman, 2 QB gurus. He's an offensive line guy so you know he would prioritize that unit. Ties to Bruce Allen from Tampa. Should be able to get a good staff together.

Thoughts?

All questions/concerns I've voiced for years...

Doesn't seem like Shanny can pull a pro level staff together. We can debate the reason for that ie my intuition is because he's an egomaniac jerkoff not many people want to associate with him vs (maybe) Shanny picked this group because it gave him max control. But the bottom line is the end result: piss poor coaching and personnel in the FO.

Kyle was in WAY over his head. Kiddo has no business running an offense. In Houston he called plays from the Kubiak playbook but didn't really do much otherwise. It was a Cush position. He came here and couldn't scheme his way out of a paper bag, except that an once in a generation athlete covered for all the lacking on the sideline.

Almost total disorganization. As seen in unprepared coaches, undisciplined players.

My take from all we've seen and heard is neither Shanahan has any business working in pro football.

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

Can we start a thread called "Choose Your 2014 Redskins PR Staff!"? I don't get Tony Wyllie one bit. This guy has been a absolute train wreck ever since he's stepped foot in DC. Now his latest gaff is bullying a local reporter because he made a joke on twitter. REALLY?

Don't EVER Joke About The Washington Redskins



Smoot, I know you said this guy was respected, and I know I continue giving you hell whenever he steps in doo doo. There is nothing about this man's work that should be respected by anybody. If Tony's product was anything other than the NFL, he'd be fired by now. No way would some corporation allow their PR guy to continue to make them look bad with so many negative incidents.


So can this asshole be giving walking papers with Shanny and crew?

So, the popular narrative is that the Redskins won't be able to find a good coach because they have been unstable at the position since Snyder has owned the team.

But it must be noted that since 1999 the Redskins have had six coaches not counting 3-game interim Terry Robiskie. The Cowboys have had five; so have the Lions (plus two interims). Is there any talk that those teams won't be able to find a coach if they decide to make a move? And don't tell me Snyder meddles and then look at Jerry Jones and say a coach would be more comfortable under him. And the Ford family does zip.

Head coach of the Redskins might not be the ideal job. But most of the ideal jobs aren't open and aren't going to open. The Redskins have a potential star QB in Robert Griffin III, a decent amount of cap room this year and a pretty well set up for the cap going forward, and an owner who will spend.

Is the Vikings job better with Adrian Peterson perhaps slowing down with a ton of money left on his contract and no solution to the QB position on the roster?

How about the Jets with their QB mess and circus atmosphere that makes DC look tame?

The Redskins job is not for everyone. Evidently Tony Dungy isn't interested but nobody really asked him, either. Some will think that other options are better. But even though it may not be the plum job of the NFL, it's better than others that will be open.

I think people will be surprised at the amount of interest there is in the job.

Of course they will be! That is especially true of most media types. They somehow came to a consensus viewpoint on Dan Snyder and they have stuck to it for many years, regardless of any obvious changes that have occurred in the way he runs his franchise.

How good is the job? Well, to start with, there are only 32 NFL Head Coach jobs in the entire world! Only a small percentage of those jobs come open each year and the pool of jobs is more attractive in some years than in others.

This year, most of the job openings are not going to be very attractive, IMO. So, relatively speaking, the Redskins job would be more appealing this year than it would be in some other years. Because of this, I think that the Redskins will have many good candidates to choose from.

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

People have brought up the name Art Briles, who is to say that maybe Jerry Jones targets him as his next coach and doesn't have to move from Texas. Wouldn't surprise me.

Dallas/Briles vs Skins/RG3 would be a media field day.
