Our next coach??

[mlmdub130]

^^ i agree i just hope we get a new gm cause even if we lose out and zorn is gone vinny could come back he was hired after marty went 8-3 to close out his season after firing vinny, that said i think so far our best coaches were gibbs and marty i think marty had the most promise look at the list of starters he had, thats why i kinda think it would be good to go with a proven head coach and i would have to take gruden over eveyone else because i think being younger is a big factor we need someone for what will hopefully be a long term hc like a minimum of 6-7 years and it's said to consider that long term but for us that really is

If you believe the "scuttlebutt" around the league - - which is sometimes wrong but it right more than half the time - - the parting between Marty and Danny Boy was more like the Hatfields and the McCoys than it was an amicable parting of the ways...

I thought the scuttlebutt was that they actually ended up being somewhat close.

They have indeed gotten much closer over the years. Snyder reached out to Marty when his son was diagnosed with cancer to give him access to the same doctors and the Mayo clinic that he used when he went thru the same thing.

Back OT, I would be very happy with the following set-up:
President of Football Operations-Floyd Reese
General Manager-Phil Savage
Director of Pro Personnel-George Kokinis
HC-Whomever Reese and Savage decide upon!

I like this scenerio very much. These guys have real time info about the state of the NFL and they've worked with or around each other at one time or another.

And think to top of this list, I wouldn't mind seeing Jim Harbaugh come here.

Excellent lineup. I'm not sure why any of those guys would want to work with Danny but we'd have a great FO if they did.

Phil Savage was the GM in Cleveland for more than a couple of years and assembled most of the "talent" there. He drafted Brady Quinn; he signed Derek Anderson to a long tem deal and kept the two QBs on the same roster. He drafted Braylon Edwards.

The Browns brought in Kokinis to Cleveland this year and have already fired him - - looking for a reason to fire him "for cause" so they don't have to pay him.

And that is your "dream team" to come in here and fix up the place? Wow...

I don't give a shit, as long as I get to see football next year, and the year after that. Whoever the coach is I just hope the team wins because you could bring Vince Lombardi back from the dead but if they win, then things will be fine. If you get my 1 1/2 year old son to be GM but if they don't win then the people will call for his head. If they somehow would become a winner then everyone will be drafting by who the toddler slobbers on first. I'm gonna wait to see what happens and then I'll get butt siced about the possibilities. I'll read all the articles on him building up my hope that he'll be the guy to take this team back to the Promised Land.

I would like Gruden just because he seems like he'd be fun to watch on TV. So would Brian Billick but he'd be too much of a dickhead because he'd have to prove that he's not being told what to do. Gruden is my pick, Russ Grimm my second. Kyle Shannahan is my sleeper. At the end of the day, I'll just wait til February when we hire our new GM and then HC.

Snyder hires the GM first. Then, the GM hires the coach. It's the only way to do it properly.

We need the best available GM for the long haul. Snyder needs to go back to France, n'est pas?

[Bill B]

If I remember correctly when Synder was asked about why he passed on hiring Bobby Bethard his reposnse was something along the lines of "Bethard wanted too much money". So going out and bowing tens of millions of dollars on signing bonuses is not an issue but paying your front office people is?

The Raiders were Dungy's project as well? He won a couple of playoff games with the Raiders and had 4 years with them that we'd all be dancing in the streets to have with the Skins right now...under Al Davis, who is far worse than Dan Snyder.

I'd be happy with Gruden.
