More precisely, I think he wished he could resign and still get his paychecks for next year. I think he understood the business aspect and would not regret staying on so that he gets his full contract. I wouldn't. And if he really is smart he would have used that time to prepare and learn and look at what he really needs to do to be better in his next job, if he takes one.

2.5 million dollars for 3 months of "humiliation" as an NFL head coach? Slap my ass and call me Mary, show me the money.

CHA-CHING!!!

I may have missed this but does anyone have any thoughts as to whether Zimmer, if hired, would run the 3-4 or the 4-3. I know he has run both in the past and was just wondering as to what people on here think...

From what I've read he only ran the 3-4 because that's what Parcells wanted. He'd never ran it before that.

I don't see where we have the personnel for a switch to the 3-4 right off the bat.

Not if we keep Orakpo where he's most valuable, on the D-line.

Yeah no doubt Rak needs to be on the line full time. Maybe put on a little more weight and he'll be fine.

Rak and Jarmon in rotation on one side, Carter on the other and Merriman at the olb sounds good to me. It was interesting to see Shawne interview on comcast postgame.

MTK · 01-04-2010, 01:27 PM

Does Merriman have much left?

Monkeydad · 01-04-2010, 01:29 PM

^ Not enough to merit trading Cooley for him.

diehardskin2982 · 01-04-2010, 01:54 PM

^ who said anything about trading Cooley? He will be a RFA in a uncapped year and very well may be cut. It takes two years to get over a knee injury, like jermiah Trotter. Also Olshansky was the space eater for Merriman he is now in Dallas. If he came here he will be with the likes of Carter, Rak and Haynesworth. You can't double team evey body.

The OP with a crazy imagination.

Latest report is Redskins will have a press conference on Thursday (that could change of course)

Thursday would be interesting because Thursday is January 7...and well we all know what happened on January 7, 2004
