Re: Williams will stay....yyeeeeeaaaaaahhhh!
 

Yea this is good because now the players will be more focused during the game in Tampa Bay. I was worried that the defense might play with a "what's the point of trying attitude bc of GW" but that is gone now.

Awesome!!!!

[QUOTE=dmek25]while im not sold on williams ability to be the head coach here,there is no denying he is top 3 as far as defensive co ordinators.another good move by dan snyder.all of a sudden mr snyder looks like a genius[/QUOTE]

When you look at his defensive genius it would be easy to use his head coaching experience with Buffalo as a measure for disaster. But this is the wealthiest team in the NFL. If there is an offensive coordinator out there with proven success, that coordinator will be in Washington in 3 years. Willams with Greg Blache as the Defensive Coordinator, is looking real promising along with the QB of the future Jason Campbell. I'm real confident.

Re: Williams will stay....yyeeeeeaaaaaahhhh!
 

This is just a GREAT move. Williams said in the interview that he is a REDSKIN. I LOVE that!! This is also great for free agency in the offseason. If good defensive free agents know that GW is here for the long haul, it may entice more of them to sign with the REDSKINS. Hell, not just defensive players. If I'm an NFL WR, I may want to come here knowing that the D will get turnovers and give me more opportunities to score. GREAT NEWS!!! FRIGGIN' GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :towel:

i was just thinking the same thing...williams' defense mind with a proven offensive coordinator, and to top that off, a young talented quarterback who spent the last three years learning from THE GREATEST Hall of Fame coach.

I think we have finally turned the corner.....we are back, baby!!!!

Re: Williams will stay....yyeeeeeaaaaaahhhh!
 

Does anyone remember the "Redskins in 60 seconds" thing that was on redskins.com, where they would ask redskin players and coaches things like what was your first car, can you cook, and so on? Well if you watch the Gregg Williams one he clearly says that he plans on bring a super bowl title to the Redskins.

Also, I am glad to see that Williams cares enough about his family that their happyness meant more to him than $$$ did...

Re: Williams will stay....yyeeeeeaaaaaahhhh!
 

Something that GW said that makes me think he is not going to be just a great D coach but the next great Redskin Head Coach is that "he well not make the same mistakes he made the first go around and be more a D Head coach and have a Coach run the O! See he has learned from Gibbs and his time here! This to can be something Gibbs can be happy with leaving this team in good hands!

Re: Williams will stay....yyeeeeeaaaaaahhhh!
 

Coaching is the name of the game, it's a great finacial move to sign the best one out there, he will make differnce makers out of players who may have athletic ability but lack football instinkt. His schemes extract the most out of players abilities, this move will save money in the long haul.

Re: Williams will stay....yyeeeeeaaaaaahhhh!
 

To know that we have a solid coaching core and that we can start building the franchise back to where it use to be is great.

Re: Williams will stay....yyeeeeeaaaaaahhhh!
 

Great news!! Big props to Synder for steping up on this one.

Re: Williams will stay....yyeeeeeaaaaaahhhh!
 

This is fantastic news and at the right time. All these losing teams looking for head coaches are creating a lot of distracting headlines wanting Gregg Williams as their next head coach. Gregg needs to be focused on stopping the Bucs and his players need to know that he is there for them. I think Gregg Williams has a head coaching job in Washington when Joe Gibbs decides to step down or step up to general manager.

That's an excellent point - just look at how distracting it has been to us!

Re: Williams will stay....yyeeeeeaaaaaahhhh!
 

[QUOTE=joecrisp]Generally, any coach can interview for a higher position on another team, with the permission of his current team. I don't know if that's something that has to be put into the actual contract language. But it sounds like Snyder's going to make Williams one of the highest-paid coaches in the league-- head coach or not. So considering he still has kids in school-- and he's said they don't want to move, and he doesn't want to move them-- I'd say if the money's the same here, he probably won't go anywhere else.

Another team would have to put together a real blockbuster deal to pull Williams away from Washington. That's not to say it won't happen, but from the sound of it, Williams would want a personnel situation similar to what Gibbs has here with the Redskins-- meaning as head coach he would have significant control over personnel decisions, and the ownership would be willing to spend whatever is necessary to make those decisions a reality. There simply aren't that many franchises where that situation would work-- at least not with someone with a less-than-stellar head coaching record like Williams's.

I think Williams knows how good he has it here, and I think he's competitive enough that he wouldn't back down from the challenge of filling Gibbs's hallowed shoes when Gibbs retires.[/QUOTE]


The above is the best assessment of the GW situation in this entire thread!
