I've been listening to him a lot on NFL Network, And maybe it's just me but he seems to still know his stuff and he makes a lot of sense with his evaluations.
What do you think?(if he was available)
In a second I would take him back!
It was a 52 yard attempt

Regardless of the yards, Skins should have had a new set of downs after the play, as Alexander was interfered with when Johnson tossed him the desperation pass!

Good luck getting the refs to throw that flag on the road. They never would have made it to the airport. The Conway kick was a 50/50 proposition at best.

He signed "Plan B" FAs Martin Mayhew and Fred Stokes. JK
And Jumpy Geathers.

And Jumpy Geathers.
And Matt Millen and Brad Edwards. There were very few articles about the team in those days that failed to mention all these guys (and that Casserly signed them) Why else would the name Fred Stokes be burned into my brain. I think Casserly was eager to let the press know that he had added the final pieces to the puzzle.
The typical 10th paragraph of an off-season article on the Skins would read something like:
"The Redskins were able to utilize Plan B free agency much more effectively than most teams around the league... blah, blah, blah ....critical to their Super Bowl victory... blah, blah, blah." I probably read that a hundred different times. I spent the entire decade of the 90's wishing that "Plan B" free agency had ended up as "Plan A" free agency because Casserly was so much better at the former than he was at the latter.

Brad Johnson did have a helluva year in '99 though, and we made the playoffs. But thanks to Danny we lost out on the chance for some stability at the QB spot for the next 5-6 years.
Bastard got rid of Gus!!!!!! If you gave the guy some bona fide WR's and shore up the safety positions and D line to help Darrell we would have been a decent team for longer than '99!! Damn, we still need these things in '09!!!!!
No, all kidding aside Casserly would help us out a lot I think. Maybe actually formulate a real plan on bringing us back as a regular playoff team. The FO still seems to shoot from the hip come draft time.

He's got the theory right. It's just that he didn't get the talent, meaning that he or his staff didn't have the best eye for talent. D. Howard is forgivable though; I heard Gibbs wanted Howard.
Funny how some seem to totally gloss over what Casserly did, or didn't do, in Houston.

Well see we seem to have a lot of people who are willing to forgive all the stuff Casserly "did" wrong (in this case "did" is defined in the same way a lot of the same people define it as it pertains to Vinny) and give a lot of credit for things he barely had a hand in.
Seriously...look at their records on the actions/decison they actually took. Casserly hasn't hit on any more personell decisions than Vinny has. Even when you factor in all the decisions that haven't worked out in rcent memory that Vinny had little to do with but so often gets hammered for.
