Jim Haslett looks like an ancient Roman general. He would look great in a toga on the sidelines.

With the way the Skins D have been playing in the last 6 games, it’s hard to tell whether Haslett is bad or it just took a while to recover from the plague of injuries at the beginning of the season. You know Kyle isn’t going to leave his Golden Goose though. Any good OC would jump at the chance to coach a team with RGIII and Morris.

They want a guy who headed up a Defense that gave up 42 TDs this year? 31 of them thru the air?

Ah yes, the fiery Jim Haslett. He can’t coach worth a lick, but he’s fiery!

All i can say is hopefully Shan Jr. stays so he can help RG3 get to ELI’s level of two Superbowls and 2 MVPs.

Leave it to the bills to hire another retread coach. Chain gailey 2.0. See you in 3 years when the bills are hiring yet another head coach!

Less than 2 months ago, both the ‘Skins’ coordinators were coaching a 3-6 team that had just come off of two losing seasons. Winning 7 straight has been a great deodorant, but I can’t see either Kyle or Haslett getting serious play as a head coaching candidate until they have at least one more successful season with the burgundy and gold.

A dream come true!. Haslett would be a great hire. He did a good job while in New Orleans and I think he got jobbed when he was let go.

This isn’t back scratching, it’s head scratching. Haslett has had zero success as a head coach and should not be put in charge of trying to right a listing ship. This would be a step down even from where they were with Gailey and Wannstedt.

This isn’t Plan B, it’s Plan F.

I don’t think haslett gets enough respect, he should be on a lot of teams’ radar. He took the saints to the playoffs a couple times, and also took the team through that disaster season post- Katrina. Hope he gets another shot at being a HC.

If Haslett was hired by the Bills, would anyone take Greg Williams back if he was re-instated?

I see the bills hiring haslett and he stay coaching the redskins defense til the redskins season is over then joining the bills…..even if the redskins make it to the superbowl

Don’t league rules require teams to make their coordinators available for HC interviews? Then how can Shanahan not let Kyle interview until after the playoffs? And not let Haslett? I guess it won’t matter after the hawks crush the skins this weekend anyway.

PS Darin: Shanahan is spelled with an A inbetween the N and the H and not Shanhan.

They can have him. Despite all the progress the defense has made, I think it’s more of a credit to the players on the field and leaders like London Fletcher and Barry Cofield etc…Haslett is an awful DC and we can certainly find someone better in the offseason.
