RI: Something to chew on (Mariucci speculation) (Update: Interview Wednesday)

I hate this. Now, I'll be even more disappointed when Fassel is named. I'll be thinking "we coulda had mooch..."

That's pretty much what I'm thinking... just like Snyder to screw up without even lifting a finger! JLC has a nice theory, but it makes TOO MUCH sense right now.

I'll believe it when I see it.

In case some of you want to e-mail Gary Radnich, here's his e-mail. Gary and Tony Bruno have a daily 1/2 hour segment so you might to contact him too eventhough he's an Eagles homer

gary@knbr.com

tbruno@sportingnews.com


I just shot an e-mail off to him, I'm really interested in his potential reply. I will pass on any tid-bit I gather.

Mooch is crazy...he he

Seriously though, I like it, it seems to all fit, but it seems too good to be true. Should we make another petition to DS, it seemed to work before. I like the idea of an offensive minded HC, and this would be a very sweet ending to a very sour process.

I wouldnt be opposed too it. Basically when we came into the thing, it was Gregg Williams I wanted, and he's obviously moved on. I really don't have a preferance to be honest with you with the remaining feild. I will be content with just about everyone and see how it goes. I could see any one of the names we have right now succeeding, and anyone of them failing here. I really dont think I want anyone from New York or New England, because I'd like to think that whoever is our coach was involved at least somewhat in the process of who the O/D coordinators would be.

This is interesting. A few hours before JLC's blog entry, Bram Weinstein mentions Mooch in his own blog

Covering The Redskins: January 27-- This Takes the Cake! (http://coveringtheredskins.blogspot.com/2008/01/january-27-this-takes-cake.html)

I need another beer. This crap is getting ridiculous.

At this point I'd be relieved to get Moooooch!
God help us all.

I liked this out of JLCs article:
"One NFL GM, after studying the consecutive hires of Zorn and Blache said: "It all points to Mariucci. It's like you're starting a Washington branch of the West Coast family. Look at the coordinators. Then you've got Vinny who could put it together. That's viable. That's something I think you could sell."

Mooch would be a great hire I think, until now, I have been pretty shocked and upset with the move of letting Gregg Williams go...however, this also points to why Mooch could be the "mystery candidate":

"Two of Mariucci's former players also pointed out the similarities between the teams he had in San Fran and this Redskins team. Both have lots of veteran leadership and have a playoff pedigree, and, like Gibbs, he puts a lot of trust in his players. With the 49ers he ran a "Dirty Dozen" of 12 player representatives that met with him weekly and had a significant say in setting up routines, practices, chemistry issues, etc. Sounds an awful lot like Gibbs's Leadership Counsel right there (look at that Skins, I'm doing some homework for you. You can add this the whole "continuity" vibe should you unveil Mooch as coach someday)."

If this were something that Gibbs did, and maybe Gregg Williams was not high on, then maybe keeping Gregg would be messing up the continuity we have created, and Mooch would bring that all together.


My mind has been blow twice on sports, right now, and the Erik Bedard trade (as an O's fan, someone needs to get Angelos to sell, seriously) Also, I am preparing myself for season 4 of LOST, by finishing the previous season, I am on the last disc of the DVD series, and WOW...great writing.

Some more support to JLC apparently:
