Re: Potential GM/HC/Coaches Thread

Kinda getting tired and burned out of all of the coaching talk. Just hire a guy already and get going.

I have nothing against MacDonald. Will be a really good HC but we are going to draft a quarterback and if that is the most important player on a team, than I want the guy who made Goff finally look like a stud.

#Lions OC Ben Johnson informed the #Seahawks and #Commanders that he’s staying in Detroit, per sources.

Johnson is still only 37 and will be a hot head coaching candidate again next year. But first, he wants to take another shot at bringing a Lombardi Trophy to Detroit.

looks like ben is out

the problem is with what you are saying is here he doesn't have the luxury of being just a oc/qb coach he has to wear the hc hat

Bingo. Harris and Peters have been focusing on the leadership aspect of a future HC. I also feel like it will be important to know what their plan will be for hiring an OC and DC.

I'm curious about Mike MacDonald, because he's analytics focused, and I know that's big for this new regime.

Re: Potential GM/HC/Coaches Thread

I gotta chuckle 🤭.. All the noise about its 100% done deal Johnson to Washington .. yea ok ! It's gonna be the same with the QB in draft .. until it happens it ain't official ! I think this team is making a big mistake by not looking into Vrabel , but at this point I hope they get there guy BUT don't be surprised if Quinn is our coach ..This team needs a strong Leader at the top a no nonsense Head guy who gets the players ready to go ! The fact that Ben is staying with Lions tells me HE himself does not think he is ready to be a HC ..and for what it's worth I also thought Johnson was coming here .. but if he wants to stay with Campbell and his coaching style then so be it but if I'm Johnson I'm mad as hell at the stupid going for it on 4th instead of taking points on FG .. if he is ok with that then I don't want him here anyway .. Dan cost them with those Decisions!

I agree with everything you wrote except for the Vrabel part. Vrable is old school all the way and he is not a fit here.

Re: Potential GM/HC/Coaches Thread

Mike MacDonald or Dan Quinn I guess.

Interesting take from Diana Russini:

@DMRussini
Ben Johnson has made the decision to stay in Detroit.
For weeks this option was always on the table.
The Commanders knew they weren’t a lock and have been operating with this information.

not really, if ben johnson feels like he can't do the job , then i don't want him

he could be a josh McDaniel's

everything about ben was his potential as a HC; he has never been one

still confused why they don't give Mike V a look

Where did he say he doesn’t feel like he can do the job? That was last time around. Said he wants another crack at the Lombardi in Detroit.

This is fucking devastating. What about Slowick? Has he commited anywhere? He is the only other guy I would be as happy about.

Im shocked at this news. Damn.
