Tribal Chief Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I thought they said they weren't gonna hire anyone from inside. Did they lie about that as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman88 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Seems like he can get a passing game going.... Robiskie spent the next seven years with the Washington Redskins as an offensive assistant coaching receivers. Robiskie began the 2000 season as passing game coordinator in Washington and helped the Redskins rank fifth in the NFC in total offense (337.3 yards per game) and passing (228.0 yards per game). He helped running back Stephen Davis total 1,318 yards and 11 touchdowns on 332 attempts, including five 100-yard outings.Seems like he can get a passing game going....

UK13 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 surely we will get a certified OC , nothing against Robiskie but I hope we get someone with no ties to the current roster plus I don't want the Falcons to be his first OC job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tobyd77 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I think this is only to make sure that they follow the Rooney rule because he is black they have to at least give him an opportunity to interview for the job so there want be any trouble.

celtiksage Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I think there will be too many candidates out there that would want to have Julio, Roddy, Gonzo and MR on their offense that we won't have to worry about candidates. But because we seem to be moving forward so slowly is because all our candidates are still coaching teams in the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Negatorris Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 If we don't get Billick, we will get Clements. Why wouldn't he want more money and the chance to coach the talent we have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tobyd77 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 According to wikipedia it is.he Rooney Rule, established in 2003,[1] requires National Football League teams to interview minority candidates for head coaching and senior football operation opportunities. It is often cited as an example of affirmative action.it is for any opening position not just head coaching to keep down any trouble on the black side of thing. if they are mentioning this he may be interested in it and feel that he should be able to do it.

Steel City Falcon Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 just an interview.. they want an established play caller i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grrrillapmpn Inc.® Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 I'd be pissed if the only reason I got an interview was due to the Rooney rule and I knew I had no shot. I wouldn't even show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's geared more at general managers or presidents. I can think of dozens of situations in the past few years where teams did not interview a minority candidate before hiring a new coordinator; the Jets just did it with Tony Sparano the other day.

tobyd77 Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 What ever the case may be it doe not matter to me as long as they get the guy that fits with what Ryan can do and not try to make him fit in what the want to do. But you may be right that the Rooney rule may not apply to this I may have miss understood what was being said sorry I'm still learning things just stating my opinions that's all.

If he didn't then the Rooney rule doesn't apply to coordinators (which I don't think it does) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot see this happening. If that was to happen it will be a long off season and extremely long season. Stack up on maalox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
