Obviously that lends to how much support Gregg is getting. That said, he only has two years of head coaching experience, and his football acumen outside of the realm of defense is very unproven.

All I can think of is Williams went into his interviews and presented the direction he wanted to take the Redskins, and that direction must have been very different from Vinny and Danny's ideas.

You make some valid points but I trust GW's direction better than i do VC's or DS's direction. That's the scary point. I don't trust our FO!!!

Ownership can do whatever they want, but it's just a little disappointing. They talk about true redskins, history, character, family, etc til it comes down to it and you don't hire the BEST candidate in house. You hire Jim Fassel? Throw away 4 years of building a team. Now don't get me wrong i am of the opinion that changes are needed on our team, but let GW do his thing.

This is why I tend to dislike the Redskins FO. It's not a well built machine. We're a coaching carousel. We make FA blunders. Yes, we've done some good things, but who here thinks we have more young talent than our nfc east foes? Gmen...no. Cboys....no. Eagles...maybe???

Jim Fassel if hired won't make it 4 years...make that 3 years. Oh yeah, Rex Ryan, you'll no longer have the talent that you had on your D. Now go out and have a top 10 D consistently. Good luck w/ that.

Why not go for the better candidate who happens to be 8 years younger than JF, i believe. Why not try to have a coach around for a while?
