With the next round of HC interviews, when do you think the SKINS hire the new HC.

At home tonight to watch the Caps vs. Oilers game in DC on Comcast. Between periods they spoke about Redskin brass interviewing Meeks today and that would more than likely wrap up coaching interviews as they met the Rooney Rule requirement.

Then, the broadcaster stated that "privately Greg Williams has the endorsement of Joe Gibbs to be his replacement" (This is the first time I have heard this). Curious if Joe has been directly involved with the interview process for his replacement with the candidates? Being he is still at Redskin park until the job is filled and part of the team with the special adviser role.

I don't have time to look if this has been mentioned already, but I heard on WFAN in NY that the Redskins might have a secret "big splash" candidate...Dick Vermiel. Although a great coach, not much of a future there with a 71 year old.

That cannot be true. Dick Vermeil? That guy is done.

Yeah, I can't bear to watch him cry anymore

not a chance...he's WAY too old to be going through an entire season

More on Mora Jr.....

From JLC's blog: Redskins Insider (http://blog.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/)

One thing to watch in all of this is the role of Vinny Cerrato as well. Vinny is pretty tight with Mora - they worked together in San Fran - while there is not a close bond between Williams and Cerrato in any way. So they'll mull this thing over for a few days, and we'll see what they really think of the current coaching staff and roster by their actions when they name a new guy.

The fact that Mora Jr, and Vinny are tight really bothers me....

Edit: Sorry, you are right it does say they are tight. But then he says "there is not a close bond at all." WTF is he talking about?

I have no clue what he's talking about. The more and more I think about it....it seems to me that whoever Snyder hires, he better get along with Vinny because Vinny ain't going nowhere. Maybe GW and Vinny don't get along or GW just wants to go in a different direction?

It really pains me to think that Snyder's decision will be based on Vinny....

Oh Im stupid. I was reading it that he was tight with Mora, but that there was no close bond between them. Which made no sense. It makes sense now that I realize that the second comment was about Williams. Silly me.

I agree. It is scary to think he would make a decision on head coach based on Cerrato. Especially if Gibbs and all the players want Williams. If Danny has to choose between the two he SHOULD choose Williams (IMO), but that seems doubtful.

I hope if Mora comes in that Saunders stays. It would suck to clear house entirely. I feel like Defense can adjust to a new system quicker then an offense. Is there any truth to that? or is the adjustment period usually about the same on either side of the ball?

I read the blog this morning & immediately had the same fears; please don't hire Mora just because vinny likes him or he does a great interview. The dude said his dream job would be at U of W. He's a west coast guy & he didn't win immediately, would end up looking like the OBC in b&g. I just can't see Mora here.
