The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

The Raiders have just cut Justin Fargas because of a high roster bonus due Monday. He still hits the hole very fast, works hard, and has been fairly reliable for the Raiders. He has had some injury issues but he has been a rotation back somewhat so he doesn't have excessive miles on his tires. He is ...

It was a smart move by the Skins to place the high tenders on these players. Washington can still trade their rights and the compensation is still negotiable, but it does provide a fall back scenario in case they decide to spend their dough elsewhere.

I don't think we will take an OT at number four unless Sam Bradford has already been selected. Shanahan is going to take the kid from the Sooner State. His doctor who did the shoulder operation is the Skins lead personal surgeon the renowned Dr. James Andrews of Alabama. The word is Bradford is ...

I can guarantee you the Raiders will franchise Seymour. They will probably slap him with the exclusive franchise label which keeps him from negotiating with any team except Oakland.

Things have been changing at Redskin Park. I finally think that Dan Snyder is listening to the fans (i.e.-Vinny's gone, Zorn gone, GM hired, Super Bowl winning coach).

The Redskins begin the change to the zone blocking scheme that Shanahan and Turner love. Watch if the Raiders fire Cable, he would be an excellent zbs offensive line coach for Washington.

Adam Schefter reports after declining Redskins request last week, Denver granted Washington permission on Monday to interview Broncos RB coach Bobby Turner.

Football Coach Scoop-January 9, 2010
The Redskins have been denied permission to interview Broncos Running Backs coach Bobby Turner for a position on the team's coaching staff,
according to Football Coach Scoop. Also, the Denver Post states that Broncos strength and conditioning coach Rich Tuten ...

A name to look for is adding Tom Cable as OL coach for Shanahan's ZBS system. Cable will be fired by the Raiders and I look for Shanahan to add him to the Redskins. He is a good coach and will help our OL.

Zimmer will be the choice. The Bengals won't pay big bucks to keep him.

It's a great start.

Washington Redskins:
According to our sources, a press conference for Mike Shanahan (former Denver Broncos Head coach) is most likely to be tomorrow announcing our
earlier BREAKING NEWS on Shanahan being named the next Head Coach.

Washington Redskins:
FootballCoachScoop has BREAKING NEWS and is the FIRST TO REPORT that Mike Shanahan (former Denver Broncos Head Coach) will be the next Head
Coach of the Redskins. As we reported earlier today, all indications pointed to Mike Shanahan (former Denver Broncos Head Coach) being ...

Sounds like Shanahan.

Let's get to January 4, 2010 and the beginning of the Mike Shanahan era of Redskin football. This season is garbage we lose next Sunday without question. Zorn is an unmitigated disaster and the team is ready to go their separate ways come the off-season. The looming uncapped year means Washington ...

From my family to yours, Merry Christmas Redskin fans!

Zorn could be given a Christmas gift this morning a holiday week firing.

It's pathetic to see him winded five plays into the game in the 14th contest of the season.

We are so bad right now that I will have to DVR the game Sunday because I can't bear to watch the Redskins give the game to the Cowboys.

Shanahan would be a fool to take the Cowboys job because he won't have control of the roster in Dallas. Jerry Jones runs the whole enchilada and he always wants the credit.

Who cares it's a crappy rule that you can't hire the best person for the job. I would hate just to get an interview because of my skin color, height, weight, or national origin. The NFL is too PC these days.

He is staying on the payroll to stay off television. He might become a Mel Kiper type and begin a draft publication program.

I think it will eventually be Shanahan but I hope Snyder considers talking with Tony Dungy. He has worked with Bruce Allen at Tampa Bay. His style, demeanor, and character would be a tremendous addition to the Redskins.

Dang - good write up. Well thought out. Are you a closet Bronco's fan? Sure know a lot about Shanny.

No not at all can't stand the Donkeys. In the AFC my team is the Raiders so I'm a glutton for punishment rooting for the Redskins and Raiders, but last week I was Redskins first over the Raiders ...

Allen will evaluate the entire football program. He will fire Zorn the first week of January and allow the newly hired coach to keep or reject Zorn's current coaching staff. The Skins will bring in another person to assist with the pro/college personnel department and then hire a head coach. Blanche ...
