[quote=spAtt;1054443]Yet they still made it to the playoffs...it's all in prospective....lol[/quote]

Perhaps that is because their defense ranked higher than ours every year ( twice substantially higher).

Yes, but we did not obtain the entire Bengals coaching staff, just the part that wasn't better than what we already had. And then retained the worse part of ours.

Re: Jay Gruden hired as head coach of the Redskins
 

WTF, Jim Haslett is staying? What does he need to do before he's fired, finish in the bottom 3rd in total defense 4 years in a row. Oh wait, nevermind, he's already done that.

Re: Jay Gruden hired as head coach of the Redskins
 

please dont tell me that is true.

no way we finished in the bottom 3rd in defense 4 years in a row ... and the DC is retained.

[QUOTE=Chico23231;1054462]its amazing, isnt it?[/QUOTEe just maybe]

I can only speculate but maybe:

Haslett is being paid off to combat Shannhan's sabotage. He is already making statements painting Shannahan as the bad guy overriding him and making defensive play calls. Haslett is here only to help combat Shannhan's accusations.

Maybe you can't compare the two offenses as apples to apples. Dalton isn't exactly a top flight QB and that really makes or breaks an offense in today's NFL. I would be so quick to jump on conclusions about Gruden's worth.

Take this for what's its worth but Chris Russell said he thinks it's going to be Bobby April special teams coach from the Raiders.

press conference now

He's saying all the right things

Re: Jay Gruden hired as head coach of the Redskins
 

Man has been on the job 5 minutes and the media already asking ass hat questions. Sounds like Haslett isn't set in stone. "I'm going to interview a lot of coaches". Yay. There's hope yet. #fireHaz

I think to get to the playoffs WITH ANDY DALTON is quite an accomplishment.

Sure, AJ Green helps a lot but Cincy did not have much on offense outside of him. Green-Ellis is nothing special and Bernard looks promising but why couldn't he overtake BJGE?

I'd say our offense has at least as much, if not more talent than Cincy's.

The defense is the real problem now that Kyle's playcalling and Mike's clock management woes are out of town.

Re: Jay Gruden hired as head coach of the Redskins
 

Can someone confirm that there is no Dan Snyder present during the press conference?

I'm watching it now, and the current shot just has Bruce and Jay.

If this is the case, that's a hell of a message.

The players and the coordinator were broken, not the scheme itself. Get the right players and coordinator (or at least get Shanny out of the way) and it'll be a-okay

[QUOTE]The Washington Redskins are looking to trade quarterback Kirk Cousins in their quest to secure an additional high selection in the 2014 NFL Draft. Courtesy of their third consecutive first round postseason exit, the Cincinnati Bengals could decide to move on from Andy Dalton and bring in a signal caller who can take the team to the next level.

its embarrassing imo, but hey dc media gotta be the worst country

Re: Jay Gruden hired as head coach of the Redskins
 

Big name? Check.

Head Coach that ran the offense that San Diego just shut down last weekend at Cincy? On a team that made it to the playoffs on defense? Check.

Keeping the Defensive Coordinator of what has been a "bottom 10" defense the last 2 seasons? Check.

What, me worry?

So Gruden used to show his WRs film on Garcon? high praise, cant understand people still hate on a top 10 receiver.

did they really need to clarify if he would watch tape from last year...of course hes going to watch game film from last year... That doesnt mean hes going to watch all the broadcasts about the drama that happened

Re: Jay Gruden hired as head coach of the Redskins
 

Keep up the Haslett bashing folks. We all know that Snyder doesn't run the Redskins, nor does RG3... We do.

The Redskins are essentially a PR firm masquerading as a pro football team.

The negative fan response to Haslett's retention has already forced them to delay the official announcement and say there will be an interview process led by Gruden.

Re: Jay Gruden hired as head coach of the Redskins
 

That was a neat press conference. I think Jay looked a little green behind the ears at the beginning, (of course the obnoxious 2 first questions didn't help), but he handled it well. I love that he said he didn't believe the stories that you guys write. As the questions went on he seemed to settle in getting more and more comfortable letting his personality come out. When told, "there have been reports that Sean McVay will be your OC," Jay responded sarcastically, "Oh yeah? Good for him." He seemed particularly comfortable and showed most passion talking about being a head coach and why he felt ready for that position. A lot of the substance of what he said was pretty generic and safe, but I think he did a great job of handling his first press conference as head coach, especially facing the Washington media, and letting us get a glimpse of the kind of coach that we and he all hope he will be.

Re: Jay Gruden hired as head coach of the Redskins
 

Really liked his candor. Gotta think he has some DCs in mind to run a 34. Didn't want an offensive coach but am happy.
