Utah Posted January 13, 2002 Share Posted January 13, 2002 Now mind you, money is always the key factor, but with Spurrier wanting to hit his mark in the Pros, there was only one team that fit the bill. It was the Skins. Why? 1)He gets to hand pick his QB. Either by draft, trade or FA. 2)He wanted an established running game. The Skins have at least one of the top 5 running games in the league at the end of the season. 3)He has a defense that can be very aggressive because he has 3 corners who can man up. That allows him to let Arrington roam and T off on people. 4)Snyder would pay him the most. That was never in question. 5)Spurrier has a huge ego. Besides New York, where else is there on this earth to create a legend better than Washington DC where the goverment even shuts down on Sundays. These 5 things to me, made Washington just too irresitable to a man who is looking to take the NFL by storm. I would also suspect that Westbrook and Barber will be back. They give Spurrier the type of players he will want in DC. Now the question is is who does he bring in for Defensive Cordinator? This will be very interesting to watch.

@DCGoldPants Posted January 13, 2002 Share Posted January 13, 2002 it would be cool if Spurier could convince Dungy to be his DC and just let him run that side of the ball. Arrington could be even crazier! ------------------ <IMG SRC="http://www.nba.com/media/wizards/kwame_bobble90.gif" border=0> <IMG SRC="http://a188.g.akamaitech.net/f/188/920/1d/www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/images/I44993-2001Sep05" border=0> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen-like Todd Posted January 13, 2002 Share Posted January 13, 2002 I'm thinking the same thing, Bufford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montilar Posted January 13, 2002 Share Posted January 13, 2002 Intriguing idea about dungy. But I've heard dungytends to run zone predominantly. Woldn't that be a waste of Champ green, and Smoot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCdemolition Posted January 13, 2002 Share Posted January 13, 2002 Oh, I would pay exorbitant amounts of money to watch a team with both Spurrier and Tony D as coaches...I'm salivating at the mere thought.... ------------------ <IMG SRC="http://www.nfl.com/images/photos/2001/pre4/phifer.jpg" border=0> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeSkin Posted January 13, 2002 Share Posted January 13, 2002 Oh man, a Dungy D, a Spurrier O...Can you say threepeat? But unfortunately, Dungy has many options, and I doubt he'll choose defensive coordinator. He'll probably go to Carolina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted January 13, 2002 Share Posted January 13, 2002 I want an attacking Defense to go with our assumed attacking offense so a Willie Shaw Defense would be the one to give me wood. ------------------ This isn't love, it's an Obsession.

indyskinsfan Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 Shaw would demand less bucks and fit a suitable D for most of what is sure to remain of last year's D. At least Arrington, Green, Pierce, Smoot, Bailey, Lang, Coleman, Mitchell and Jones should have a place on the D. I actually believe Smith will just have to take a backup role and retire after next season, if he even remains. Dungy could also work with that group. However, signing him as a DC can be risky, because Head Coaching is still in his blood, so he could leave you dry after one year. Also, he's not even going the route if he can help it, so if he did, it would cost us dearly for him. I agree a DC like Shaw or whomever that wants to stick to being a DC, like Spurrier only wants to be a head coach.
