Jim Mora Jr. withdraws himself from consideration for Redskins HC job (update)

Jim Mora has a different middle name and Vinny and him worked together in San Francisco and would fit the comfort zone that Snyder desires

Me too. Don't even know why Snyder is in love with him. I think he just likes the power of it all. Gibbs gone is already showing its affects. He held old Dan in check just by being there.

My theory on him getting hired would be:

He's got HC experience
He's young and commands respect
Has a winning record even if it isn't much
Is a good HC

I started thinking if Snyder changes his mind and hires Mora Jr. why would he do that? He looks at the Cowboys keeping Garrett (a young bright prospect for HC next year or the following) he looks at Williams (a little older) if he fails then What? If he picks Mora (also a young bright person w/ HC experience) he would also have a bright young up and coming coach to compete with the Cowboys in the long run. I think Mora failed in Atlanta because of Vick (great athlete but not much of a QB). Maybe this is a bunch of nonsense in my part.

What in the heck are you even talking about. Mora is a coach we are looking for a coach so he gets an interview. How does that say DS is in love with him? To me it says he is taking his time and interviewing all posable HC. What affects are you talking about? Waht has Danny done? Nothing and what do you know about what is going on? Nothing. This is a dumb thread based off of nothing so quit making up threads. In the beging I said there would be 5 to 10 rumor head coaching threads and I was wrong. I think there will be 10 to 15 rumor HC threads.

The guy runs a typical west coast offense, we already have Saunders, makes no sense

I think the bigger question is...are any of these candidates an upgrade over Williams? In terms of leadership, tactical strategy, statisically speaking (his defenses have ranked high), motivation (players seem to respond to Williams' technique), and that's not to mention the intangibles.

So my thinking is regardless of whom they interview, there's probably only a handful of coaches on the market that could unseat Williams as the heir appearant.

See I don't think Mora commands respect. I think guys like Mike Singletary command respect. Mora? No thanks. I remember hearing a story about how he could not control DeAndelo Williams. Now that is not an easy thing to do but he seems too buddy buddy with the players if you ask me. He kind of reminds me of Pete Carroll. He'd make a great college coach. Plus that whole University of Washington ordeal. I mean the guy has an NFL job and goes on the radio lobbying for a college job? What the hell is that all about? I would stay far away from this guy.

Mora is not an offensive coach. He coaches defense.

Not only that...but look at the kinds of guys that were on that team and how they acted...and ask yourself if Gibbs would have let that slide

He flew out across the country to pick him up, had Mora sleep over him home, then gave him another interview over breakfast. That seems like alot to me. Whoa, you need to get laid dude, angry man!

I've seen the Defensive coach side of him here in SF and all the players love him and respected him, he's a players coach. If you watched the Seattle game, same thing. I would much rather have GW, but Mora is not a bad alternative. As far as controlling D. Hall who cares, the guy is talented but he's a punk like Pacman, nobody could control someone like that, the solution would be to trade him or cut him. By the way, Andre Carter would endorse him having played for Mora.
