I've read that he is - if nothing else - on their radar. He'd be a coach I'd want if we were to release Shanny. For the next coach, I'd like to not have a retread; I'd rather have a young up and comer.
Are they grooming AJ Smith to take over for Allen, assuming bruce is given another job in the front office?
Well, David Shaw told a moderator on a Redskins site known for its legendary April Fools jokes today that he shouldn't hold his breath on Shaw becoming the next coach of the Redskins...of course he's not going to talk about a position that's not available at the moment anyway
As for Smith, personally I think yes. More importantly, even if it's not Smith, I do think Allen is sooner than later moving onto another more business/operations related position in the FO

Is it the Jim Harbaugh connection? I would definitely want a coach who would continue to handle RGIII's development the right way.
Jim Harbaugh connection? No, has nothing to do with any of it

I know who I don't want as Special Teams coach - Burns must go.

I am not sure who the next coach should be right now. I am still processing the fact that I think there should be one. I was a diehard Shanny supporter since day 1. That all ended on Thursday. I am done. Three and a half years later we still have the same issues. Terrible defense, terrible special teams, lack of discipline. When does anyone get held accountable? How is Haslet still the DC on this team? Is there anyone here that did not know that the viks were coming back when we took the 13 point lead. It's Groundhog Day in DC and if Shanny won't hold anyone accountable then it's finally time to make HIM accountable.
Intrigued more by Shaw then Briles right now. Briles just seems like the obvious perfect fit and that is what scares me. His age concerns me also...I would like the next coach to spend a decade with Griffin not just a few years.

I don't know about you guys. Aren't you more concerned with AJ Smith getting involved? Theirs a lot of negative stuff about him everywhere more than others for a reason. Too me I would be more concerned with this. I feel if he gets in control as GM, it will be twice as worse than with Shanny. Then we will wish we had shanny back. Imagine AJ smith involved in RG III contract negotiations, Ryan Kerrigan, trading cousins situations. What do you think? Hope it doesn't come to that and the skins fans start the ravens more because snyder can't get right.

AJ Smith built some good teams in SD, Marty and Norv failed in the playoffs.

if we bring gibbs back, maybe he'll trade for carson palmer and bench rg3; could be just what we need...

Well the guy who will really be key from Baylor is Phillip Montgomery, he's the one who really molded RG3. Would imagine he would come with Briles. That said I'm not totally sold yet that Briles would be the guy
Right now let's close the door on Shaw. Doesn't look like it's happening

I don't know if I completely agree with that. It's midseason for both teams, it doesn't make sense for him to try and make a declaration that he wants to coach in the NFL right now. I'd chalk his comments up to being coy more than anything else.
