If Gibbs Goes, Who coaches next year?

Good points from both of you. My sense is that if Dan Snyder had the power to dismiss assistant coaches, Williams would have been gone last year, and Saunders would have been shown the door at some point over the last few games. Snyder's patience has no doubt worn thin for these two guys. I'd bet he's chomping at the bit to take the axe to someone.

But he won't dare touch Gibbs.
