It's easy, and only takes a few moments.It's not the fastball, it's the drastic change in culture required, combined with he wants to be the boss and it's a rental. What GM is going to hire his own boss for a 2-3 year period?Will find link later.
Bill has lost his fastball, but man... I still think he's a better candidate than Quinn.
Yep. All HC roles filled, unless Andy Reid pulls a shocker and retiresWas this the final vacancy?
Really feels like Ron Rivera 2.0.Quinn is an uninspiring hire I think.
Love the Mcdoanld hire for Sea, that’s who I wanted over Mayo if we weren’t going offensive HC.
As of now. I guess their are rumors Reid could retire. But I can't see that veing a viable spot for Bill. That team likes their front office.Was this the final vacancy?
It was just a bunch of old heads that were more thinking with their emotions, rather than being honest with what they actually have seen on the field the last few seasons.In my mind, all this HC hiring season demonstrates is that we were wise in firing him and that owners generally are pretty good judges of HC/GM talent. I thought all along that there would be few interested and likely no takers. The non-Pats-fan component of the NFL universe comes more freshly to the evidence of Bill/s decline. I imagine they were surprised to see just how precipitous the decline really was, especially on the GM side. Next step? I wouldn't be surprised if Bill got a Valentine from Jerreh this year, and special gift next. A fool and his money....
And next year being another year older wont help his cause either tough pass.If BB wants that Shula record badly enough he needs to back off on his demand for control and just take a coaching job. Highly unlikely a tea is giving a rental like BB that kind of control.
That's the weirdest part to me. It would've made more sense if they still had all their parts. But they dumped their defense, then hired a defensive head coach who has little to work with, and an uninspiring record as an HC previously... I don't get it.Strange hire to make after moving so slowly. I don’t think he’s that good of a coach and it will be a tall task after the previous front office traded away the defense.
Your logic makes the assumption that Owners and GMs are high functioning but as evidence to the contrary: six or more coaches get fired every year and a majority of teams miss the playoffs. There’s a lot of incompetence in the ranks of NFL ownership and management.In my mind, all this HC hiring season demonstrates is that we were wise in firing him and that owners generally are pretty good judges of HC/GM talent.

I agree. Though, as I am myself definitely an "old head," your post makes me a little nervous.It was just a bunch of old heads that were more thinking with their emotions, rather than being honest with what they actually have seen on the field the last few seasons.
How fun to be a Redskins fan. Imagine hiring a team of independent consultants and advisors to lead your next HC hire and the outcome is… Dan Quinn.That's the weirdest part to me. It would've made more sense if they still had all their parts. But they dumped their defense, then hired a defensive head coach who has little to work with, and an uninspiring record as an HC previously... I don't get it.
