Ehhhhh, I think another guy looking at the problem and giving his opinions will just have the opposite of the desired effect. It will make the game and the execution way too cerebral and that in turn will bog down the offense. Players worrying about executing the plays correctly instead of just going out, playing well and trusting in their skills. Execution could see a drastic dropoff, which I know, seems impossible with our play this far, but I could definitely see it. Nothing good will come from this guy coming here.

Anybody read Mike Wise's column yesterday? A good read. This speculation I found very interesting:
A conspiracy theorist might connect the dots and the timeline, which appeared fuzzy on Wednesday, like this: Lewis spends time with an old friend, Greg Blache, the Redskins' defensive coordinator whom he worked with for two years in Green Bay, before the Detroit-Washington game at the team hotel. Blache is a motivator of great renown, thought of highly by Snyder. If things go abysmally south the next three weeks, Blache is asked to take bullets as the interim head coach until season's end. At the least, Blache has got a guy he knows with a little play-calling experience to have his back in the event Zorn and Smith can't put Humpty Dumpty back together again by the bye week.
By then, Lewis has almost a month under his belt of learning personnel, plays and players.

This was what I brought up when speaking with my stepfather when the news of the Lions game with him there came out. He does only live 30 mins away though, settled here after leaving the Lions. Also it was a bit too early for us to feel that troubled already I think, but who knows... but I also thought that it could be a little more than coincidence

We said we weren't signing Haynesworth?
don't recall that either
I know we hear the thing about Jason Taylor all of the time, but we said that BEFORE Daniels got hurt I believe

Yeah...I remember feeling relieved because they said that they would have the cap space or interest to go after Haynesworth. That was said probably 2 or 3 weeks before free agency started.
Then the story about Snyder dining with Haynesworth's agent broke and the next thing you know we're introducing Haynesworth at Redskins Park.
Our front office definitely said that they were not focused on high priced free agents coming into this past offseason though.

The Washington Examiner says that Snyder is really interested in John Gruden. I'd rather have someone else, but not Zorn, even if he combed his hair.

I think you're mistaken...Zorn said they would be players in free agency. And, while I'm not always accurate, I think I told you guys the free agent we were really targeting was Haynesworth. I can't recall anyone saying otherwise, but maybe someone did
