A lot of the best coaching talent is in the college ranks right now, but I wouldn't mind bringing a coach back for a second tour as head coach as long as it's the right fit. No more than 4 seasons as a HC and recent employment (and success) with an NFL team are some simple qualifications to look for.

Shopping in the failure bin could be a wise move, as long as it's a relatively short track record of losing, and not a career-long epidemic.
Seems like the college HCs who go straight to pro HCs bust about half the time? But then you look at the NFC west.

Speaking of NFCW how do you evaluate Fisher so far?

I wish Mike would take initiative though. Replace Haslett with the best DC available even if he runs a 4-3. Replace Kyle with the best up and coming OC, including college coaches. Show the players you will choose team over nepotism an they might come around.

I had them at 7-9 or 8-8 before the season, I just don't see how people think this team had the talent to contend.

I don't have a preference for HC or OC but as DC I would love for Kevin Greene to come here.

I guess because the same team won 10 games last year and we were getting some injured players back.

On the other hand when you're the 2nd worst team in the worst division in pro football (5-14 against non division opponents) and you've had basically total control the last four years, it's hard to argue you deserve another year.

Honestly I'd take Jay Gruden over Jon.

Highly doubtful Jon would even come back.

Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?

At this point, I think at a bare minimum for Mike to keep his job is to fire Haslett, Slowik, and Burns at the end of the season. If I'm Snyder, I tell Mike either he makes those changes or he's out the door too. The defense hasn't gotten better, the special teams got worse, and Slowik continues to shit up any position he's allowed to coach. First it was the DBs, now it is the LBs. This is where I stand on this.

Truthfully, I think Kyle needs to go if him and Mike can't get their shit together on what should be the plan for our offense.

For the record, I think Mike should have replaced Haslett after last season regardless if we won the division or not.

Honestly I find it hard to bitch about Kyle the last 2 games. Funny, RG3 played better the last 2 than all season would help that perception.

Slowick never gonna leave Shanny.

I included Kyle if he and his father can't get on the same page. I have no issues with Kyle for the most part.

Re: Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?

I'd like to see the team go in a different direction, I realize the Zorn fiasco still lingers, but I am against having a retread coach. The team needs a clean slate. I'd like to see the team hire a talented coordinator either an OC or DC and see what happens.

I don't want to see this team blown up again. I don't think it needs to be blown up. Bring in a better defense coordinator and special teams coach, and this team is a consistent playoff team. Mike has done more for this team than what people realize.

At this point I'd still bring back Mike but with the caveat that he shakes up the staff and makes some changes.

I just don't see DS firing Mike he likes him too much, I would bet MS resigns before getting fired.

He wanted 5 years I say give it to him. Let him make some staff changes and have an offseason with a good amount of cap room to make some moves. If the team gets off to a good start next year sign him to an extension. If not he can walk at the end.
