ddub52 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Mixed feelings on this. Red zone play calling was atrocious at times, but he obviously worked well with Kirk. Gruden will keep much of the same system, but we're gonna have to find an o coordinator who fits our scheme. I hope we don't bring in someone who wants to make too many changes and/or bring in a new system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ksun247 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 The writing was kinda on the wall for this move. Rams wanted him and they got him. Congrats to McVay. That's a big pay upgrade for him. Lots of responsibility too. Best wishes to him, except when they play us. Now, let's see what the SKINS do to replace him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audible_Red40 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Excited for him. Myself, not so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinzplay Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Congrats to Boy Wonder! I wish him well with the Rams, and think that he'll do a fantastic job out there. He's already off to a good start by choosing competence to lead his defense. Looking forward to seeing what kind of attitude/character be instills in his team. I think he's going to be damn good as a HC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Congrats to him. Youngest HC in the NFL's 96 year history. Ridiculous achievement. Congrats to the Rams for helping us out. Love you guys. Congrats to the Redskins for moving on more of the deadwood from the coaching staff. The biggie now comes in replacing those departures with quality. Hail.

@DCGoldPants Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Congrats to him. Being his age and the HC of an NFL team in Los Angeles is pretty cool. Hope he succeeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamebreaker Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I wish him luck. He's gonna need it. I wonder if he's ready for this level of responsibility. Maybe we can promote one of the position coaches to OC, the same way we promoted McVay to OC from TE coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcl05 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Apparently he wants Wade Phillips as a DC. Would be a great choice for him, given WP's head coaching experience. I think McVay will be a star coach. Hope the best for him. Big loss for our team, but was to be expected at some point... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilco_holland Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Trivia question. Who was the last Redskins assistant coach that got hired as HC somewhere else. For all the people who don't believe we are really becoming a contender. This only happens to contenders, good teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistertim Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Congrats to him. Lots of responsibility there and lots of expectations, especially being the youngest ever. Mixed feelings on this. Curious if they promote an OC from within or if they find outside help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean and Wes are close friends. He would have an insider track on commucating with Wade Phillips. Actually this is the scenario that Cooley put out there 7-10 days ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSO Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Disappointed a bit. Was really hoping we'd keep as much continuity on the offensive side of the ball as possible. And he's a great offensive mind who, much like Kyle Shanahan, is/was under appreciated while here. That being said, we got Jay and this is his offense. I'm not losing sleep over this.

fwo40 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 ****. ****. I have less faith in Gruden than a lot of people and I dislike losing a young mind like this. 35 minutes ago, bcl05 said: Apparently he wants Wade Phillips as a DC.

I feel like if I could swap this combo for what we have today...today I would chance it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander -JB- Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Let me address the elephant in the room. This guy has literally no track record of success. He's 30 years old and just finished coordinating an offensive unit with an awful red zone TD% and missed the playoffs. People are acting like he was calling plays for the most vaunted offensive attack in history. What has he proven that would, for one second, make you believe he'll become a tremendous head coach? Now think for a second, why is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hail4Life Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 **** man! This just gives Kirk less incentive to stay and I want Kirk to stay. However, I think Callahan can have the same success if we are lucky enough to have Kirk back. I just don't think Sean will have success in LA as a head coach, not as long as they have Goff.
