Interesting. I guess that leads us nowhere really. There are only two ways of looking at this:

1. If Vinny "Know's what he's doing," who cares if "he's hard to like." And in that case you would have to side with Snyder. If it is continuity he wants then the best option is to keep things in the FO the way they are, AND make Williams head coach.

2. If Vinny is so disliked and hard to trust, then why should any head coach be forced to work with him. For an organization to work the heads have to be able to work together. You may not need to like someone to work with them, but you certainly need to trust them. And in this case you would have to side with Williams. He should be able to set things up in a way that he is comfortable (with as little change as possible for continuity's sake) so that he can manage this team as best as possible.

It is hard to determine which side to take on this. I guess the first option seems to be the most logical, but we would hate to see major turmoil the next couple of seasons because these guys can't work together. All and all I hope that they work things out, other wise we are looking at one of two other less appealing scenarios:

1. Williams makes FO changes, which could disrupt continuity.

2. Someone else is named head coach, which could disrupt continuity.

Of course any of these options could pass or fail the test of time, so I guess this is a moot point. Thanks for indulging me.
