Potential GM/HC/Coaches Thread

[Chief X_Phackter]

Nobody on here knows who their top candidate is or was anyway. That person may still be in play. A lot of assumptions going around.

I couldnt stomach him anywhere near this team for another second!

Fueling up the jet to fly to Detroit though?

I don’t see any of these options as a win. All appear to be settling for table scraps that everyone else has no interest.

I certainly wouldn’t want to draft a QB with any of them, they will get killed back there with our OLine and some clown ass OC they scrape off the bottom of the barrel.
As most of you are smitten with wasting a #2 pick on a project QB not worthy of said pick, you should pray for a reset on the search for HC. Someone who could groom a college QB in the nfl and not get him killed or completely ruined.
Maybe Saban? Or, Smart?

I gather most don’t want EB back, and I’m almost sure that includes the players, but I’m leaning towards keeping EB, trading back, loading up on OLine and full other holes next via draft an free agency. Let Sam have a go, and if no success, cut bait on EB and Sam with a new Oline built and hopefully more playmakers under contract.

As a Redskins fan, I’m used to praying for a miracle to happen.

Oh I'm not saying it's a bad thing in the modern NFL. Antonio Pierce was just the LB coach and by all accounts he's done a good job with the Raiders.

Just saying I remember when it was a bad thing when the HC had no coordinator experience. The times change - doesn't matter if you don't have coordinator experience as long as you have leadership qualities.

Also I'm slowly selling myself on Anthony Weaver as HC - apparently in 2022 he was the Ravens run game coordinator and d-line coach, then in 2023 he was assistant head coach/d-line coach. Former coordinator for the Texans before that. And as long as he's respected by the players and can identify quality coordinators/playcallers it's all good with me. I agree with Adam Peters - the HC doesn't need to be a primary playcaller/etc. - he needs to be the leader.

Top Candidate was Ben Johnson.
The question now is who is plan B?

Could we see a scenario where a temp guy is in place for next year?
Maybe it’s EB for 2024 then go after Ben Johnson next year.

I don’t want to go with a mediocre guy for the next 5 years. I’d rather have EB get us another top 5 pick while we wait for the guy.

Hate to say it but Bill Belichick is still available .

Not sure he'd sign up for a scenario where he doesn't have total control though.

He's kinda old to be holding out when only 1 job is left.

Who says we'd be locked in to someone for 4 years? If next year is another disaster you cut bait.

I just don't want EB getting someone like Daniels or Maye killed back there with his bullshit drop back 50 times a game with zero running game offense.

true

Gonna throw a name out there, Pete Carroll? I'd take him over BB to be honest. And def. for sure over Dan Quinn.

[MTK]

If it was going to be Quinn what's the holdup? Hire him already. That's what makes me think he's not option #1 right now.

Weaver has an interview lined up for the DC job in Miami, they could be waiting on a decision from him.

Well, there were 2 people being interviewed there.

Billionaires top off their jets and fly wherever they want whenever they want. I don't think that clues us in on anyone being the top candidate.

I think it was Adam Schefter who even said, don't believe everything you're hearing about Ben Johnson being the
Commander's top target.

[SFREDSKIN]

Maybe they are waiting for Steve Wilks

[devils advocate] to do due diligence on both Glenn and Johnson.

Does Chris Foerster deserve a shot?
