Mike Holmgren Interested In Redskins Coaching Job?

Peter King of SI.com reported that ex-Seahawks and Packers head coach Mike Holmgren has a lot of interest to coach a team on the east coast. During his appearance with Chris Russo of Mag Dog Unleashed on Sirius XM Radio, King said, "I've heard a lot of people say in the last few days, 'Oh, Holmgren wouldn't want to go to Washington,'" King said. "Keep one thing in mind in December when all this stuff starts to go down. Remember where you heard this. Mike Holmgren last year, Thanksgiving weekend, I'm sitting in his office in Seattle and he says, 'You know, I'm going to take this next year off but after that I'll give you a cool little theory for what I might do.' I said, 'What?' And he says, 'I've coached in the Midwest with Green Bay and I grew up playing and coaching out west -- Brigham Young, the 49ers, Seattle.' And he said, 'I'd really love to try the East Coast. That brand of football where you wake up on Sunday morning and it's the most important thing. There aren't 800 things to do. Where you're in East Rutherford or Philly or Washington and it's so important.' "He said, 'I'd really love to try football on the East Coast.' So do not eliminate Mike Holmgren when you start talking about coaching candidates for [Redskins owner] Dan Snyder."

Mike is to smart to work for Syndbrenner. Better off taking over an AFC team to work the East Coast IMO.

something yahoo posted about this yesterday

Redskins and Cowboys may be set to battle over Holmgren - Sports Rumors - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

Quote:
Holmgren wants to get back into the NFL next season and the word has been for a while that he'd love to be coaching the Washington Redskins. But the Cowboys may have interest in snagging Holmgren, too. Owner Jerry Jones isn't exactly known for backing down from getting what he wants.

idk, i'm not reading much into it.. but, it says either Holmgren or Shannahan for us, but.. i'm not too sure we'll get rid of Wade if we can make Playoffs this season and get a win while we're in there, that's the boiling point.
