Re: So Now Who Do You Want?

EXACTLY.

NONE OF US know what went on behind the scenes, so let's not make assumptions about how insane the front office is. GW could have wanted the power Gibbs had.

I'm sad because we're not going to give anyone not named Gibbs a chance.

Re: So Now Who Do You Want?

I voted for Schwartz...why?
Highest chance of continuity.

Now that Snyder took a complete crap on the coaching staff.....all we can do is hope the crapshoot he throws works out for the team.

In any case, it is highly likely that next year will be a offensive rebuilding year...it would be nice if the defense didn't have to do that at the same time.

Synder is a really crappy owner and obviously has poor integrity.
I miss Gibbs already

How did he take a complete crap on the coaching staff?

Re: So Now Who Do You Want?

Is Russ Grimm a serious option? Has anyone even spoken to him about the job? I would be happy with him but if it is him why isn't he already hired? He is in Phoenix with no ties to any team in the playoffs?

Re: So Now Who Do You Want?

I'm favoring Schwarts, as he runs the same system that Williams runs and he has been a scout as well, so he probably knows talent. He is also pretty young and if he succeeds could be a coach for us for a long time. This would be a great way for the Skins to provide stability.

BTW, I love this Scott Campbell move to Director of Player Personel. He is a very good talent evaluator and I'd love it if Snyder were to recognize that Vinnie and Scott should swap positions. Better yet, fire Vinnie and teach Campbell how to play racquetball.

Re: So Now Who Do You Want?

Cowher said he isnt going to coach, and Spagnuolo is the guy i like most otherwise. I hope the pats win so that he doesnt want to stay with the team that won the super bowl. Spagnuolo did great things with the giants d.

Re: So Now Who Do You Want?

Greetings from a newbie.

Rather than an opinion, I have a few questions:

With Jim Zorn running the offense, are the Skins better off with Fassel (or another offense-minded coach) as opposed to Meeks, Spagnuolo or Schwartz?

Also, have I missed some news on Don Breaux, who has been holding the title of offensive coordinator? Has he been cut loose officially?

Welcome to the board. Like the user name

I don't believe Breaux has been cut loose officially, but I'm sure it's coming sooner than later.

I think that the advantage of Fassel is that he has experience running an offense so he can "guide" Zorn and give him assistance while the more experienced Blache handles the defense.

What makes you think Fassel is not an O coach???

I do think Jim Fassel is an offense-minded coach. Since Zorn is a 1st time coordinator, I wondered if it made more sense to have a head coach, like Fassel, whose has expertise with that facet of the game. The others who have interviewed all work the other side of the game -- and our present defensive coaching staff seems pretty experienced.

Thoughts?

FOX Sports on MSN - NFL - Carroll no longer a serious candidate with Redskins

Did u all see that Carroll from USC was originially an option. U would think Snyder would've learned something from the Spurrier era.

Yeah, I think you're right. I believe that was similar to the setup Fassel had for Sean Peyton when he was O-coordinator with the Giants.

The theory of Steve Mariucci seems more and more plausible though. I just think that if the job belonged to Fassel, he would have had it by now.

I'm upset...was Mariucci one of the names from the beginning? If not could we please be allowed to revote? lol. He fits with what DS is trying to do so far.

Re: So Now Who Do You Want?

How about Lane Kiffin? He's a young guy who probably wouldn't object to having his coordinators pre-chosen. He also is probably one of the 3 or 4 coaches in the league who's worked for an owner with a worse reputation than Snyder. His players all spoke well of him when word came out about AD asking for his resignation...
