Coaching Rumor on SportsTalk 980

I keep hearing Ryan runs a 3-4...anyone know about that?

Truth is, nothing is going to make this feel better until Fassel clearly redeems Snyder by winning a whole bunch of games. Unless this guy goes 10-6/11-5 and vies for a second round playoff berth or even a conference championship, the Skins will never live this decision down.

This isn't going away. Not during the draft, not during training camp, not during pre-season, and not for at least the first 8 games of the regular season.

The very first time JC throws an interception, it will be Snyder's and Fassel's fault. Now is that reasonable? Probably not. But to many fans, neither is bringing someone into our "house" who knows nothing about the way we set our plates out on the dinner table, what time we serve dinner, and who's turn it is to wash the dishes.

There are rules and ettiquette that generally apply to every situation, then there are "how we do things around here." I think the Redskins we're on to something with the latter. Now it looks like they're going to re-set the dinner table, so to speak.

lets face the truth, Gibbs 4 year stay here is just a dream. then after waking up. were now back to the redskins that is now owned by a fantasy football guy. lets have another ride with this

Good points. But let me ask this then, why should it matter what the fans really want? If they listened to the fans we'd have a different coach every other week this past season.

They should not listen to us fans. I agree that some of us are incredibly fickle. However, I do not believe I fall in with that crowd. I was a strong Gibbs supporter and I like what he left in place. That the players and coaches (including Gibbs) reportedly support Williams, despite his arrogance and demanding nature, in his bid to become the next head coach only confirms my belief that he is the right man for the job. In short, I like what I see and so do the people closest to our team (i.e., the players and coaches).

I think we should just make Cerrato our Head Coach and then all of our problems are solved.

Yes this is very disappointing news one cannot expect to be competitive if you keep starting from ground zero every four years or less we can expect to be mired in the basement for a long time to come it is very sad

It's really really hard to jump for joy with every move we make, knowing that we will throw it out the window the following year. Lets see best three redskins seasons since 91

1999 Norv's 3rd year? 2005 Gibb's 2nd year, 2007, Gibb's 4th year. All those years....absolutely no changes, same QB, same HC, same DC, same OC. Every other year........JIM FASSEL.........STEVE SPURRIER........ Did Snyder ever graduate history, he needs to learn from the past once in a while. Especially if he's the redskins fan that he claims to be.

The Zimmermans · 01-23-2008, 09:33 PM

nevermind, redskins just denied the rumors haha

If you read the comments on the latest Redskins Insider...they are all saying that the Redskins are denying offering the job to Jim Fassel....hmmmm...please change of heart...oh please, oh please, oh please

Maybe Synder is starting to realize all the backlash he would get for hiring Fassel. No point in making a knee-jerk hire. He needs to sit down and straighten things out for a few days.

I love it....the shoe is on the other foot.

An hour ago, we were all being accused of having a knee-jerk reactions and overreacting.....I would crack up and sing for joy if this was all reversed
