Re: Why the hate towards Fassel?
 

[QUOTE=freddyg12;414889]There are some good answers here. I'll agree w/Rypper11 as the best one; the anti-fassel sentiment was more pro GW than anything. Now that we know GW is out, I wonder what the reaction would be to Fassel if his name just surfaced like Mooch's did.

I like Mooch & think he's a good fit, but after this thread it's made me think a bit more. Maybe Mooch is just the flashier candidate & there isn't much difference between the two in terms of overall ability.

Someone jokingly said something earlier about his bitter beer face. In all serious, looks might have a lot to do w/it. I know a lot of us would never consciously be aware of that, but it's a factor just as it is in running for office. Ugly candidates start w/a disadvantage.[/QUOTE]

Then how the hell did Norv Turner EVER get a job?

LOL, I was thinking that maybe fassel reminded people too much of him, w/the pock face, O coordinator & coming from a division rival.

There must've been some ugly dudes interviewing when Norv got his job. I think overall Mooch is just more presentable & as Matty said he's on tv so we get a chance to see that. He's sharp & polished publicly, whether that means he's the better coach or not I don't know. I think he's percieved as more the alpha male than Fassel could ever be.

Those same qualities are what I fear about Mooch, that maybe he's all window dressing but doesn't do enough. Someone said his style was to get in & out of practice & not put in much extra. While there's no perfect way to prepare, I believe coaches like Gibbs spend so much extra time w/game plans because they're driven that much to figuring out every detail they can.

[quote=killromo;414361]Are you a psychologist? That makes perfect sense to me. But I never liked Fassel period. I think it's his face, anybody remember the bitter beer face commercials? Thats what i think of when i think of fassel, oh yeah and losing too. Way to get fired by the ravens fassel...the ravens?!?[/quote]

bitter beer face w/a hint of Norvelle Turner!

Fassel is Tom Cruise compared with Norv!

Re: Why the hate towards Fassel?
 

Tell me this why should Jim Fassel be the new head coach of the Redskins?

He hasn't proven really nothing in his career. One Super Bowl in which he lost and didn't coach at all last year. Has he proven himself as a solid NFL coach enough to come in and get use back to the Super Bowl and win, I don't think so?

That's still one Super Bowl better than Mooch and Gregg Williams. Just sayin'. Not every schlub makes it to the big show.

Here's a few reasons in his favor: He's got a winning record in this league, he's known as being a great mentor for young QBs, and he's a [SIZE=-1]disciple of the[/SIZE] WC system.

Why should he not be our next HC?

Re: Why the hate towards Fassel?
 

Well if Fassal is our next head coach we are done ladies and gentlemen. And that is that.

Re: Why the hate towards Fassel?
 

Now that we have Zorn I do not see the added benefit of Fossil.

Too many cooks in the backfield.

Fassel or Mooch would be the same in my opinion, but Fassel got more out of a rather lackluster Giants team and getting them to the big dance than Mooch ever did with the 49ers. My only concern against Fassel, is he has been out of coaching for a bit. Mooch with the Lions was doomed from the start with McMillen in charge. The Lions are one sad ass team, but the Skins are not too far from the horizon.

Why is that?

Re: Why the hate towards Fassel?
 

I hate Fossil, I have no idea why. I like Mariucci, and again, I have no idea why. I think Fossil has a superior record.
