Posted this in the Redskins thread, but it also bears mentioning here for those interested
I am disappointed that Haslett and Morris and others have been given a stay of execution if you will. The bottom line is that the team needs to move on from everyone associated with Shanahan, unless it's an obvious fit like Lovie Smith being hired as head coach, and retaining another Tampa 2 coach in Morris. Even then I would question it. Chris Foerster is a great offensive line coach and did wonders with a unit that contains only one elite talent, but I would even say he should be out.
Interesting to see that Bruce Allen has been the one to have contact with reporters and doing press conferences. Aside from his statement this morning to the press, Snyder is not available to press. Allen has also said that personnel decisions now lie with him. I thought they would bring in another GM, but they have a highly-touted group of executives in the personnel department and AJ Smith is a senior executive. I think that brain trust could be enough.
Early reports from the Post are saying Lovie Smith is a candidate, but beyond him fulfilling the Rooney Rule interview requirement, I can't see him being a serious interview. His skill set is defense, and we need a head coach who is going to be involved more with the offense and working with RGIII. Also mentioned was Bill Cowher and that the Redskins have already reached out to his representatives, but I can't see him getting involved in this quagmire. I also want someone who has not been a head coach before at the NFL level, and not someone directly from the NCAA either.
Lovie i can see and would entertain.
Cowher; i could not see being a good fit.
although; very qualified........
and yes;
Schottenheimer firing was dumb but Zorn is almost like a Dead Heat.
