Sounds like a good move not to give out a 6 year deal to an unproven 1st year head coach. McDonald has Geno Smith to work with. Good luck.

The longer this goes you have to think that Vrabel and BB become options? And they could even be two of the best options that have been sitting there all along? Think about it, is Quinn or Weaver a better head coach than Vrabel or Bellicheck? Or is the question are they better for this organization than MV or BB?

Sounds like Johnson played it pretty poorly across the board, he didn't even get a raise out of it like Slowik did in Houston. At least that's what's being reported.

Nah, not trolling, I don't do that. I meant Peter's and typed Meyers.

Cause he's paid by Josh Harris to build this roster?

Josh Harris: "What do you think Magic?" Magic Johnson: "I'd get Belicheck on the phone and talk to him." Harris: "Bob, are any of the candidates left better than Belicheck?" Myers: "That's hard to answer....no, no one can match what he's done in this league." Harris: " How is Andy Reid still winning, if we have the QB can BB still win like Reid is doing in KC?" Myers: " I would think he could." Harris: "Can we find a QB to win with if we hire BB?" Myers: "That would be my job and I believe I could find a QB." Harris: " Call Belicheck, I wanna talk to him."

You kid....but we could do much worse. Brady would be a great leader if nothing else. I'm sure he's forgotten more football than Ben Johnson knows.

Kind of interesting, we find ourselves in a position where the most successful coach in NFL history is available and we don't know who our next coach is gonna be. We could stumble into a gold mine by default and come out smelling like roses.....and I hate BB. But, what if he's the best option?

With the Sixers, Harris has hired proven guys who have won, both Doc Rivers and Nick Nurse have NBA rings and both are NBA vets. Quinn fits this mold outside of the ring which he nearly got. That being said, I think Bob the Builder is gonna make this hire as the final word. It's why Harris hired him.

These guys are all now back in play: Joe Gibbs, Bill Cowher, Nick Saban, Bill Belicheck, Dick Vermeil, Urban Meyer, Jimmy Johnson, Chip Kelly, Marv Levy, Mike Shanahan, Pete Carroll. Some good options here.

If we're going QB at some point in the draft (assuming pick #2) then how do we not go with Ben Johnson as opposed to one of the defensive guys thinking that Johnson can develop a young kid better? I wonder if Harris and Peters would value Johnson while knowing he's got room to grow as a leader who will take some lumps but is just too good to pass on because of his overall bright mind. Kind of like what Miami has in Mike McDaniel? As good as Dan Campbell has been, how much credit should go to Ben Johnson for resurrecting Jared Goff in a tremendously designed offense? Also, if we pass on Johnson we just wasted a LOT of time signing the best offensive coordinator and that would be terrible given the need we have to develop a QB. Who's Dan Quinn's OC? Macdonald's OC? Weaver's or Glenn's? We'll find a good D-coordinator who won't be counted on to develop the next franchise QB after hiring Johnson. I'm taking Hitman#21's posts to the bank and saying Johnson makes the most sense for us and us for Johnson. Maybe Johnson met with Seattle to see what their offer is and use it to get the Commando's to up their offer. Could be a strategic thing that his agent pushed for?

LOL....I had to respond to your "all over the place" comment. That's the best I could do.

I wonder if Harris's wife designs uniforms like the old owners wife did?

I remember how furious Marvin Lewis was with Lavar Arrington because he would always "freelance" and breakdown the entire defensive scheme trying to make plays. It was a very similar situation to how Chase Young's career played out in Washington....Highly hyped, top 3 pick in the draft, disappointing career. Chase likely cost himself a bunch of suitors and a lot of money with that play on Sunday and the way Shanahan is going public with it. We should hear from his dad soon.

Jim Nantz had the line of the day after the Raven clotheslined Mahomes after a pass...."We haven't seen a move like that since The Longest Yard".

I'll bet you were so happy you wet your diaper after that playoff win?

Good post...seems to me that the million dollar question for the defensive candidates is "who is your OC going to be and how do you develop young QB's"? Johnson would have the clear advantage there. All things being close as far as leadership skills, game planning, track records I'd think the offensive system and QB development questions loom largest. I'd assume that's a big reason why Johnson is the favorite?

I get it but maybe some Magic Johnson persuasion and Josh Harris $$$ can lure Vrabel to DC????

HC: Ben Johnson DC/Asst Head Coach: Mike Vrabel OC: Hank Fraley This outcome would cause me to be excited all around. I really like Vrabel and believe he'd be a difference maker with our defense.

The coach and GM will determine how successful we are moving forward based on their decisions and abilities. I learned this from Joe Gibbs and Bobby Beathard. We have the owner, the GM and the coach comes next. Then we build the roster. Gonna be a lot of fun between free agency and the draft.

I would like to see Gibbs and Montgomery on the field together using Gibbs as a slot guy where they use him on screens, as a decoy, crossing routes all while Montgomery can pound the ball. They could run Gibbs on jet sweeps too....

Mike Mayock....LOL

I'd go for him....he'd be our McCaffery and we'd steal him from a division rival, wouldn't cost us any draft picks. He wants to win too, I hope we do bring in some names...

That 91 Redskins team was pretty much unbeatable....we can only dream to see a version of that team again. Every week we knew we were going to win...and only once did we lose unexpectedly. Week 16 we pulled the starters in Philly and lost a game that didn't matter. Rypien was something...he knew where to go with the ball and almost everywhere he threw it someone was wide open. I went to that parade...rainy day and kind of a ho-hum, we won again parade. Memories.

Ok boss, you stick to your opinions, if you don't like my posts then you have the option to block me. From now on I'll try and agree with popular opinion so you like me better. LOL. BTW, if Quinn was such a horrible candidate then why are so many teams, including the Commanders, wasting their time on him? Don't worry about answering that cause I know how this will end.
