McDermott to interview for Redskins HC this weekend...

[WestEndPanther]

Have no issue with this at all. For now we don't know our opponent, so not much for him to do anyways as it pertains to scouting. Have a feeling our players are off today anyways to rest up. If this is where he wants to go next in his life, then good for him. He has earned it with his coaching this year. The defense is good up front, but the back 4 is still vulnerable. A good DC like McDermott (combined with influence from Rivera) have masked over our big defensive deficiencies.

Just a thought.................how do ya know the interview day is not his day off ??

 

Let the man do what he wants to do..........we'll be fine.

 

because, how else could anyone express their superiority in that case.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm much more concerned about the offense..

[CollegePanther]

Meh, no big deal... he won't miss much and they're coming to Charlotte.  We've got two weeks and don't even know who we're playing...

 

This is how the NFL works.  I don't blame him at all.

Now that you say it that way, it's not as bad. If we already knew who we were playing, then I'd be mad.

Changed my mind to the extent that I was making a "mountain out of a molehill" on my part and shouldn't have created the op.But still can't agree that the HC prep will not be a distraction with the task at hand to some extent. Would rather he be watching film of our potential opponents then preparing for an interview.

It's this Saturday. 

 

And realistically, how long will the travel actually be via airplane from Charlotte?

 

up and down..............1:15 tops.

[Sloth]

Congrats to McD! Hope we keep him but you don't put together a group like we did without risking teams sniping staff.

[FootballMaestro]

up and down..............1:15 tops.

 

Exactly; quick. 

 

For some reason, I don't think he'd interview for a job on the west coast or mountain region, if one was available.

Who among us wouldn't do the same thing? If he gets a head coaching gig, that's an explosion of wealth and notoriety compared to what he has now. If you wouldn't take the interview, you're either lying or a chump.

[PantherFanOne]

The league should not allow a coach that is on a playoff bound team to be interviewed ,or even asked to be interviewed for another coaching position, until his team is no longer in the playoffs

 

It should also be illegal for the coaches  to be pursuing other interests when they are on the trail of a possible Super Bowl,something that should have their undivided attention. This side attraction could even cause possible disruption among the players themselves.

how is it that I can already know which posters are going to overreact to this kind of news?

 

oh yea because they overreact about EVERYTHING.

 

this is literally nothing. I'm concerned that McDermott  won't be here next year though. that is the only concerning thing about these HC interviews.

[Anybodyhome]

The team had to grant permission for the interview because the team's season isn't over.

[rainwater]

Rivera interviewed for the HC job after leading the #1 defense into the playoffs after a 1-3 start?

No, he led the defense that started 2-3 and ended up 13-3 with a division crown winning 11 straight.  Yeah, huge difference.

Exactly; quick. 

 

For some reason, I don't think he'd interview for a job on the west coast or mountain region, if one was available. 

 

that's more than likely the reason Seattle coaches are not interviewing............long way too go.
