We very likely haven't interviewed the top targets yet.

Everyone needs to chill the heck out.

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

Ive watched Baylor several times this year, each time i come away disappointed. Briles doesnt care a damn bit about defense. I dont think he is close to NFL ready head coach.

I have no idea why his name is even being mentioned. I doubt the Redskins are even interested. Just rumors flying....

Also...funny how when Cousins was asked who he'd like as the next head coach he says.." well that will be up to Mr. Snyder and Robert"....lol.

Some people are too caught up in being opinionated know-nothings than actually using any critical thought or trying to understand.

Perhaps they would be more comfortable if they understood that the timing of the interviews we've had so far has been mostly because of NFL rules about when playoff Coordinators can interview. But that would have taken a moderate amount of effort to know and understand.

Sigh.

For Pete's sake. People around here are thinking the world is going to end because Smith and O'Brien are off the board. If the Redskins had chosen too fast you'd be complaining that they didn't do a thorough enough job interviewing all the candidates. Now it's "we are going to be stuck with our fourth or fifth choice". Geez Louise people! Get a grip! The spot has only been vacant since Monday. The week isn't over yet.

Sean McDermott interview won't be a distraction - ESPN
See, Yeah, I like that. If nothing else this is why he is deserving of an interview.

Right. I mean we missed out on O'Brien. Sad face...I get it. I liked him too. But there are others available that will be good HCs. As for Tampa. Congrats on your ensuing string of 6 straight 7/8/9 win seasons with a couple first-round playoff losses.

@Rich_TandlerCSN

Lovie Smith is a class act and a good coach. But his Bears teams 2004-2012 made the playoff just as often as the #Redskins did...

There are still a lot of great candidates working in the playoffs. Including Ken Whisenhut and Jay Gruden.

True, after this weekend at least one of them comes available to interview as will (potentially) Greg Roman and Pete Charmichael (Saints OC). There's really no serious rush to hire a coach today. Most of us are just so ready to shed the past era, we want swift resolution so we can focus on something (and someone) else.

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

I (still) don't get the infatuation around these parts with Gregg Williams as some kind of defensive savior. His defenses were inconsistent when he was here. Top 10 one year, lower 20's the next. He obviously didn't impress (some say he moreso offended) the decision makers when he was passed over for the job after Gibbs left. Went to the Saints, built a great defense for one year, average defenses the rest of the time and was let go by Payton. Not to mention the bounty stink he created. Coming out of a drama-fest with Shanahan, I don't want to invite that back into our house.

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

Right now, it's between Sean McDermott and Darrell Bevell for me. Bevell would be very good for RGIII, but I really like the thoughts of Sean McDermott. The only concern for me would be who he gets as OC.

Well put. I see no reason to lose sleep over missing out on Lovie.

Of course, that's why he was at the Baylor game last night.
