More of a small town guy, may not embrace the DC "scene", low profile-low drama. Also if it was such a perfect fit, especially with the Allen ties, it seems like we would have moved quicker to interview him. I could be off but its just a sense.
It seems impossible that we would......not have been having under the table conversations with the agents of anyone we are interested in.
Regardless of the NFL rules

How come there hasn't been much discussion of Mike Zimmer? Did I miss something? Of all the coordinators he seems to have the best track record over a good period of time. He has experience in the 3-4 and the 4-3. He has always been loved by his players and seems (imo) to have the "it" that a HC needs? Any thoughts?

Who knows, he could be on the radar. McDermott kinda came out of nowhere so you can never tell. With a game coming up this weekend he can't be interviewed until next week though.

Would Zimmer be willing to uproot his family and move to DC?

Different approach:
Fact 1: We sucked badly with coaches
Fact 2: Coaches cost money
Conclusion: Working without coaches canīt make us suck more and saves money
Decision: No more coaches

Thought I heard Zimmer's name floated somewhere early on.

I wonder if it's a personal thing for Zimmer, I remember his wife passing away sometime in the last couple years, maybe he doesn't want to leave his current way of life or something.

These comments from a respected Seahawks blogger makes me even more leery of Bevell, Washington Redskins Head Coaching Candidate Seattle Seahawks Darrell Bevell (http://www.ballhogsradio.com/2014/01/01/some-insight-into-redskins-coaching-candidate-darrell-bevell#close). Hope we pass on him.
