wade phillips wow

The Bum Phillips 3-4

Nose tackle as a 1-tech, fellas.

I would say no to Phillips for 2 reasons.

First we need some continuity on this team and that starts with the coaching staff. Haslett needs at least another year probably two to get his type of players in here and to get everyone doing what they should on every play, (this is probably why he had 2 safeties so deep on so many plays against Philly)

Second, All of us are sick of us bringing in washed up Free Agent players to Washington, so why are we ready to bring in a washed up coach and move him to Defensive -Coordinator? He was shell of a man in Dallas this past year, he DOES NOT deal with adversity well, and why would the players respect him?

(Also f' anyone who would be associated with the cgirls)

A quote from London Fletcher....

“The thing about this defense, you’re going to go through some growing pains in the first year,” linebacker London Fletcher said. “We’ve had some games where we’ve played some really good football and we’ve had some games where we’ve struggled.

“That’s to be expected, but it’s not accepted. We’re not just accepting where we are. We’re going to continue to work hard and continue to practice, focus and prepare in order to be successful on game day. We’re going to try to play the scheme a lot better.”

I guess continuity is not the key. We definitly should fire Haslett and bring in yet another coach. Heck it used to be every 3 or 4 yrs we changed HC's. We got that number down to 2 years. Might as well see if we can get that number down to less then a year.

I agree with London.


There HAVE been some improvements from last season. Turnovers are WAY up. We're getting to QBs.

We're just giving up a TON of yardage but we're better than a 31st-ranking (or are we last after that Philly debacle?)



Most teams have a rocky transition to 3-4 but in the end, it's usually an upgrade to be in the 3-4.

Patience. Haslett CAN coach. He didn't have every part he needed for the transition but we're working on that.

I don't think I could stomach seeing Wade on our sideline.

21 points was what we were coughing up prior to Philly. 21.6 points was what we were coughing up last year.

If the question is who a better defensive coordinator, Wade Phillips or Jim Haslett? It's no contest, Phillips is a superior DC than Haslett. I wouldn't even bother waiting until the end of the season. Bring him in right now as a consultant so he can be ready to take over when Haslett gets shit canned.

[scott.sharrer]

I really do understand everyone's frustration. But wasn't the focal point of redskins fans for years now to get the front office and coaching staff formed and keep them for a period of time instead of all the coaching positions being a revolving door?

I am not saying I fully support Haslett, because I actually don't like the guy, never have, but to can him already will just go against everything we have asked for as a fan base, consistency in the organization

all due respect but ....got a link?

[skinsfaninok]

I think wade is a great D Cord but I doubt we fire haslett after 1 yr.

[SmootSmack]

Just because JLC has contacts, doesn't mean he can't and doesn't speculate sometimes. He could have said wade to dc just because he thinks it's a possibility, not based on any inside info. You'll hear Mort say this often, or you won't because people usually miss it, but he'll say "I haven't spoken to anyone about this or heard that it's a rumor so don't take it as such, but I think you might see the Redskins go after David Harris in free agency"

[Defensewins]

My favorite JLC moment came seeing JLC sour puss face after the NFL Draft. He all but assured that Haynesworth would be dealt and hung his hat on that possibility. JLC kept talking about his well placed sources.
JLC was the Haynesworth Show on NFL network days leading to the draft. He milked that thing dry.
The next day after the draft JLC had this look like he found out his wife is cheating on him.

You can bring back Vince Lambardi to coach this team and we will still be terrible with the old vets and lack of quility draft picks we have given away for next to nothing. I say be patient and take our lumps until we get better players to fit the offense and defense schemes. We have to rebuild if we want long term success. This player here and a trade there has not worked the last 10 years. Fire and hire a coach every 3 yrs has not worked either. Coaches coach and Players play with that said we need players.
