Does anyone actually listen to what comes out of Jersey?

And lets not forget the Neal O Donnell SB performance..

Im going to combine a few of those. I want a young head coach who maybe had a year or two down in college or a former player who was a leader on his team and is strict and in the players face.

This is more about with the current Redskins roster what type of head coach is the best fit?

Do we need a hot-shot, upstart who can relate to the young guys?

Do we need a hard-nosed disciplinarian who can keep everyone in check?

Do we need an experienced offensive mind who can help our rookies and 2nd year players?

Discuss

Mike Holmgren is what this team needs. Not the Mike H. who mailed it in last year in Seattle. I want the guy before that, who can be an ass kicker when needed, but knows how to communicate w/ the players and most of all a guy the players RESPECT. He commands respect when he walks in the room. Hell we can hire him and put Zorn at QB coach where he belongs. But it will never happen cause Snyder can't push Holmgren around.

The organization needs to go higher up than head coach. What is needed is a total upheaval from top down. The needs a general manager that is responsible for the entire football operations. A head coach that instills discipline. An experienced offensive coordinator. An aggressive defensive coordinator to handle the Redskins best squad.

The coaches in this clip are exactly the type of coaches we need for the Redskins. Especially the assistant. Relevant part starts at 1:01

Naw, this team ain't too old. Give me a break. I hate to use them as an example, but look at the Patriots. Across the board they are a veteran team. Even the Giants offensive has line has played together for the past four years/five years. Those guys aren't exactly spring chickens either. The Cardinals are another team that comes to mind. Geez Kurt Warner just 700 years old, and both Fitz and Boldin have been in the league around the same length of time as Santana Moss. So the Skins aren't in need of some "youth movement".

We have one of the youngest secondaries in the league. Rocky is young, Orakapo is a rookie, and Fletcher has a lot of milage left him. Besides, the guy never get's injured.

I honestly think Zorn could be the right coach. He's not too young, not too old. I think he relates well. He's just too much of an offensive coordinator. He has the mechanics down, but not the nuance. Play calling is about nuance and imagination. He's not there yet. Without naming a coach, if Zorn doesn't get it done we might have to start from scratch.
