"Not a head coach type" from evidently his biggest fan pretty much says it all. Hopefully we steal him away from the Cowpokes to be our next ST coach, nothing more.

Hope we start seeing some legit candidates interview soon.

I see SMoot has been greasing some wheels at the mother ship.

There is no way that Dan Snyder is going to hire a virtually unknown coach to lead his team. The new coach is going to be a big name. I just don't know which one.

I wouldn't be a bit surprised if the Redskins are flying under the radar while they are putting together a deal for David Shaw or Chucky.

David Shaw would probably be a good NFL HC from the leadership and player management perspective, but if he were hired here, I wouldn't want him calling the plays. We would need to find an excellent OC to be responsible for that. Shaw's playcalling in the Rose Bowl was not impressive, and he has been knocked before for his unimaginative playcalling.

I would rather have Jay Gruden.

I agree. They went "all in" on RGIII and feel they failed with Shanahan. They can't afford to "waste" RGIII on an unproven guy. They need a proven commodity who's #1 job will be to coach up and maximize RGIIIs potential. I would say theres a 80% chance the guy we hire has been a "big name" NFL head coach before. I also dont think we're seriously considering any defensive-minded coaches.

I would bet on these candidates, in the following order:

1. Wisenhut
2. Cowher
3. Jay Gruden
4. Jon Gruden
5. Jim Caldwell

Someone a few posts up just said Cowher himself says it's highly unlikely that he'll coach again anytime soon.

I know. And Allen also lied and said no one from redskins had talked to him.

Did Cowher lie also yesterday when he said the same EXACT thing?

If what many others a suggesting is true, it won't be Danny making that decision, it will be Bruce Allen. I could see Allen choosing an unknown if he felt it was the right guy.

Sure, Will. Dan Snyder bought the Redskins so Bruce Allen could select the Head Coach. By the way, I've got a bridge I'd like to sell you.

I'm not even saying that it's true, but a lot of people on here believe that. I'm trying to believe Danny is hands off, but we'll see.

Russ Grimm is my choice. He is a Redskin and wont make them look worse when things go bad.
