half full: EB could be the replacement for RR if he performs well[/QUOTE]

The only scenario I see where EB replaces Ron is if he really gets this offense humming, and everything else falls apart. If he gets the offense humming and they win 10+ games, Ron isn't going anywhere. It may propel EB to opportunities elsewhere, but not here.

Anything less than 10 wins and they are all likely done.

[quote=mooby;1338082]I gotta be honest, the gap between 1 and #2/3 is so big it makes me wonder how we ended up here.

If he does offer EB the job that's a hell of a risky transfer for EB - he could be looking at being on the street in a year or less if Ron can't get us out of mediocrity.[/quote]

Roman is well qualified and would do a good job here.

All things considered I think we're pretty lucky to have EB and GR at the top of our list.

I have to agree with you here. For me it's another example of RR really trying to get this thing going. He could have taken the easy route with Shurmer / Zampese, but he cast a wide net, interviewed nine candidates, and now the two most qualified candidates (EB & GR) appear to be the favorites to take the position.

Very true. Obviously best case scenario he comes in, turns Howell/co. into studs and departs next year for a HC gig after saving Ron's ass.

That report about prospective owners contacting Payton about a potential HC gig here is a red flag though - new owner might not care to wait on Ron.

I'd be surprised if EB doesn't accept the job today.. I think Ron and Co. will put a great offer out

i was thinking the same, because the D will probably stay solid

Re: Commanders 2023 Off-Season Thread
 

there are rumors both EB and GR will be offered positions here in WSH

Remember though, as Mooby also alluded to, that the potential owners already want an upgrade at HC.

What are the other examples of Ron really trying to get things going?

Re: Commanders 2023 Off-Season Thread
 

The BEST-case scenario is new owner is announced today or very soon and they bring in a good GM who then picks a coach. EB could definitively be a candidate in that scenario.

I think RR took this organization from laughingstock to mediocre and we need a new coach to take us to the next level. But like many have said, new owner is the first shoe to drop to get this all started.

Has our our on field play has ticked from laughing stock to mediocre? Off the field we are clearly still a laughing stock, though that is on the idiot owner. Always was really. On the field we ticked up real slightly as far as wins losses go from Gruden to Rivera. Not sure it is enough to call it a marked improvement.

Anyway yeah Snyder leaving is the first domino. And its a giant one.

Re: Commanders 2023 Off-Season Thread
 

EB coming here would be an absolute career damaging move. Unless he is being pushed out in KC he should just stay there. He still has enough say over the offense in KC but I get the feeling, for whatever reason they want him to move on.
