Fassel meets with Redskins over coaching vacancies

What??????

Sorry I'm just shoeked that a Mod and Joe Gibbs man would be in favor of Fassel as the head coach for the Washington Redskins.

I feel that "they" are just going with it b/c there is a pretty good chance it will happen and "they" can say we agreed all along.

I think Jim Fassel has been demoted from HC for a reason and he was fired and left out of the NFL for a reason.

These past two weeks starting with our kicker have been the most frustrating ever! Fassel is not the answer people, he's just not!!!

In a way Matty's right. Fassel has a winning record as a HC, won a conference Championship and two coach of the year awards, and got screwed by the Giants. Yes he went 4-12 the year he got fired, but that team was ravaged by injuries. This guy went to the Super Bowl with Kerry stinkin Collins for god's sake. He's certainly not who I want taking over, but he's no Steve Spurrier.

Facts are he has a winning record, he's coached a team to the Super Bowl, and GW's overall HC record doesn't stack up to his.

What exactly is in dispute here??

Well that is true. BUT, look at the talent both coach's had to work with. That might have a little something to do with the win/loss record or success level.

For the sake of argument, a 60-56-1 record, while winning, is not exactly stunning. 2-3 in the playoffs in 7 seasons is not too thrilling either. And let's remember, his best season was his first (when he won coach of the year) and that was in 1997. I hear where your coming from but remember, the guy got fired by his best friend.

Still much better than what GW did as HC. Hell even better than Gibbs 2.0 for what it's worth.

That's all I'm saying.

Very true. We could do worse (see Pete Carrol). I think what gets me is I see the two guys as pretty even in terms of experience etc... except that GW has been around. Not that things would stay the status quo but if the boss is going to preach continuity, then lets see some. If not, get someone who is a significant improvement. But I see where you're coming from.
