Mike Nolan was mentioned in lieu of Mularky because Mularky has had one good season and one abysmal season.

Nolan has done well with one of the most talented Defenses while George Edwards inherited a similar defense and ran it into the ground. I will add that this list is incomplete.......

I'm off to play for NYE, try to get laid and do as many illicit substances as I can :)

Added some more for ya there. I think what intrigues me the most was Rex and Rob Ryan have both done some pretty imrpessive things with teaching 3-4 and 4-3 switching. Could be interesting to see here with the linebackers we have here. If they can be whipped into shape and we can get some solid D-linemen, that could be a scheme that would really be impressive.

Easy on the Mike Nolan sh*t. I'm just posting the info I have found. Don't pi*s on the ploiter..........;)

Did someone say Joe Bugel? I love the head Hog as much as the next Redskin fan, but his services are best rendered as a top lieutenant, not the CnC.

Of the 3 on the short list, Dennis Green is my personal pick. However, that does not necessarily mean he is the best for the job. I'm not even sure our future HC is on the list yet. I'm still holding out for a Romeo Crennel or Kirk Ferentz (that's the homer in me coming out).

Mike Nolan has good results in New York and has done so again in Baltimore. Only in Washington when he had to use underachieving players like Stubblefield and Wilkinson did his reputation decline.

My grandfather used to say that a monkey could win a card game with the right cards. Give Edwards some actual NFL talent on the D line and see him improve.

What in your mind makes a majority of these names good assistants?

I can understand names like Hanifan and Mudd because they have built reputations over many years but the majority of the names have little NFL experience and nothing else but coaching on teams with establised head coaches and coordinators.
