If people believe that Williams was basically dissing Gibbs, most fans would become somewhat sympathetic to Snyder and be much more accepting of his decision to hire another coach.

Snyder no. But there are others in Redskins Park that I no doubt would try to spin it. There are some petty people there, but it's not the people everyone thinks.

Thing is, Williams and Gibbs are definitely different. Never was it more apparent than during the Archuleta incident. Wasn't it Arch who was saying Williams never spoke to him, while Gibbs tried encouraging him?

But this isn't, shouldn't be, a total surprise. We've all know this for the last four years.
