Former 49ers and Lions coach Steve Mariucci addressed on NFL Network rumors that he might be the next coach of the Redskins.

Mooch was noncommittal — he clearly is open to the possibility, but he calls it a “family decision.”  (Insert whip crack sound here.)

A couple of readers have pointed out that the recent hiring of defensive line coach Larry Brooks by the Redskins could evidence that Mariucci will get the job, given that Brooks was Mooch’s defensive line coach in Detroit in 2004 and 2005.
