I really like what McDermott's players had to say about him.
Sean McDermott interview won't be a distraction - ESPN (http://espn.go.com/blog/carolina-panthers/post/_/id/3647/mcdermott-interview-wont-be-a-distraction)
See, Yeah, I like that. If nothing else this is why he is deserving of an interview.

For Pete's sake. People around here are thinking the world is going to end because Smith and O'Brien are off the board. If the Redskins had chosen too fast you'd be complaining that they didn't do a thorough enough job interviewing all the candidates. Now it's "we are going to be stuck with our fourth or fifth choice". Geez Louise people! Get a grip! The spot has only been vacant since Monday. The week isn't over yet.
Right. I mean we missed out on O'Brien. Sad face...I get it. I liked him too. But there are others available that will be good HCs. As for Tampa. Congrats on your ensuing string of 6 straight 7/8/9 win seasons with a couple first-round playoff losses.

Agreed. The best available coach - by a mile - just got hired in Tampa. Whoever we hire, they'll be a downgrade from shanahan. That much is certain

Lovie Smith is a class act and a good coach. But his Bears teams 2004-2012 made the playoff just as often as the #Redskins did...

There are still a lot of great candidates working in the playoffs. Including Ken Whisenhut and Jay Gruden.

True, after this weekend at least one of them comes available to interview as will (potentially) Greg Roman and Pete Charmichael (Saints OC). There's really no serious rush to hire a coach today. Most of us are just so ready to shed the past era, we want swift resolution so we can focus on something (and someone) else.

I (still) don't get the infatuation around these parts with Gregg Williams as some kind of defensive savior. His defenses were inconsistent when he was here. Top 10 one year, lower 20's the next. He obviously didn't impress (some say he moreso offended) the decision makers when he was passed over for the job after Gibbs left. Went to the Saints, built a great defense for one year, average defenses the rest of the time and was let go by Payton. Not to mention the bounty stink he created. Coming out of a drama-fest with Shanahan, I don't want to invite that back into our house.

Right now, it's between Sean McDermott and Darrell Bevell for me. Bevell would be very good for RGIII, but I really like the thoughts of Sean McDermott. The only concern for me would be who he gets as OC.

Well put. I see no reason to lose sleep over missing out on Lovie.

I have no idea why his name is even being mentioned. I doubt the Redskins are even interested. Just rumors flying....
Also...funny how when Cousins was asked who he'd like as the next head coach he says.." well that will be up to Mr. Snyder and Robert"....lol.
Heard the same thing.. See Mattyk, I didn't make it up!! :-)

Of course, that's why he was at the Baylor game last night.
