laurent Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 I could see Holmgreen in Washington, but not as headcoach, but rather as the guy that runs football operations in D.C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoney26 Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Holmgren isn't very good, and don't spew a bunch of stats either. I guess you dont remember the state of the Seahawks franchise before he took over. Anyone that thinks Mike Holmgren is a bad football coach should not be taken serious in any football conversation.

darrelgreenie Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 not to discredit the validity of florio, (insert own big ass laughing face here), but i'd give mike holmgren far more credit than to start openly putting his name forward for a job that's both not up for grabs, and one presently occupied by one of his former assistants.Coach holmgren has always struck me as somebody with way more integrity than that.

stoney26 Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Now Im really pulling for Zorn to do well. With all the Coaches that will be available you pull Holmgren? I too want Zorn to do well, but what if he doesnt?? Who would you want??? I would definetly go with Holmgren and Ill tell you why. The transistion would be seemless. If its not going to be Holmgren I prey to the football gods that it is someone that is going to run the West Coast Offense. I dont want to see some sort of different offense that we have to learn all over for a lonnngggg time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam291 Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 I wouldn't mind seeing Holmgren as our version of Bill Parcells in Miami. Or an OC/assistant. I'm just not sure Danny would fire Vinny and give up that much power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truskin4life Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 We all know who will be coaching under the skins next year if zorn does not work.

Warrior1971 Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 I think its more likely that Holgrem would want to be GM and Team President, and keep Zorn as his HC. I can see this happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsBry Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 I'm going to at least let the team get through training camp and pre-season before calling for Zorn's head. I'd rather see Holmgren in a G.M. roll too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haynesworth_Mancrush Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 :bsflag: Florio also recently said LaRon Landry wanted a trade because he wasn't at voluntary OTAs. This guy is losing what little credibility he might have had left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

33 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Can someone please explain why they think Holmgren and Zorn have some sort of special relationship outside of former HC of Seattle and former QB coach of Seattle? If anything from reading quotes and interviews of Holmgren I would say their relationship was entirely professional and certainly not nearly as close as Holmgren and any of his many GB QB coaches. I'm not saying he's so unprofessional as to gun for Zorn's job while the seat is still occupied, but this "relationship" every one speaks is a mystery to me.

bulldog Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Holmgren is a good coach, he is an awful personnel evaluator in re the draft and free agency. No doubt he would want a deal similar to Marty's where he came in and had operational control. If the Redskins nose dive in 2009 Snyder may feel he has no choice other than to hire a name coach for 2010 and move on from the Vinny experiment. That may be a good thing, but only if it results in a true GM hiring a true coach. Parcells is really the only HC in this era that has been effective as the chief personnel executive as well. George Allen handled both jobs with the Redskins and was successful getting the team to the postseason with regularity in the 1970's. But in most cases, HCs that try and take on the GM role fail miserably, as Holmgren did in Seattle his first couple of years there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InsaneBoost Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Last I checked the job wasn't available. I'd have to say you couldn't have said it any better and to be honest, I think Zorn is going to have a good season this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
