Phillips makes complete sense on many levels. He's a guy that players buy into quickly, he's a proven defensive mind with extensive HC experience that can no doubt help Gruden. No brainer of a move.

We haven't picked a new coach or signed any new players and our defense is already better than last years. skinsfan69 01-04-2015, 05:11 PM This comment is pretty ignorant. AJ Smith is the one with familiarity with Phillips, not Allen. And please explain why Wade would be a bad hire? When you have the track record he does as a defensive coordinator it becomes easy to see why he keeps getting hired. Not everything has to be overly complicated or "outside the box" to be the right decision. Some things really are obvious, and that's because his resume is that clearly head and shoulders above the others. Phillips is a retread. Not saying it would be a bad hire, but it would be nice to see them bring in a young up and comer. BaltimoreSkins 01-04-2015, 05:36 PM Phillips is a retread. Not saying it would be a bad hire, but it would be nice to see them bring in a young up and comer. 3 of the 4 head coaches in the conference championships last year where retreads. I think the young up and comer can be overrated if you don't have the talent or the FO and coaching staff to assist them. Lotus 01-04-2015, 06:13 PM We have a (supposedly) young, up-and-coming HC. No problem then with having an experienced coordinator. skinsfan69 01-04-2015, 06:17 PM I'll give you an example. Why not talk to Ken Norton? Former player and a damn good one. He's been coaching for a while, he can probably relate and motivate the players better than Phillips. He comes from a winning environment. He comes from a place where competition is a priority and they put a very strong emphasis on tackling and fundamentals. Why not think outside the box? This organization needs to go away from the good ole boy network in the worst way possible. I think bringing someone in like him is exactly what this team needs.

And may I add leadership and accountabilty in the locker room. When you are a nice guy people take advantage. Give me Norton if he is willing to become our DC anyday. Hog1 01-04-2015, 06:47 PM An interview with WP from this past June. Wade Phillips: "A Big Redskins Fan Now" (http://www.wadephillips.net/newsht/news_060914_wade_phillips_a_big_redskins_fan_now.h tm) From his biography on the same website: Back in the day, I played for screaming coaches and teaching coaches. Regardless of the sport, I always played my best for teaching coaches. Good stuff! Wade much like his father is a straighf shooter who gets results, and often from little talent. You can believe what his tells you is the truth as he knows it.....like his father. This wil be a great move if we can pull it off both for the D and for Jay because I his HC background as has been pointed out Schneed10 01-04-2015, 08:34 PM Phillips is a retread. Not saying it would be a bad hire, but it would be nice to see them bring in a young up and comer. Why?? Just for its own sake? This kind of "thinking" makes no sense to me.

This is completely speculative, you have no idea if Norton can motivate better than Phillips, you're now just saying things with no factual basis. Don't overthink it, Wade's resume is what it is for a reason. |
