Mike Shanahan went 8-12 with the raiders then went on to denver to win superbowls.

Belichick was 34-42 with the browns before moving on to new england.

Joe Gibbs made the hall of fame and is struggling in his return.

George Seifert Inherited a superbowl team and won, then went to carolina and sucked ass.

Ownership and current players play a big part of a coaches/GM's success.
as bad as the Turner era was, I felt like the skins could win any game. they always had a decent game plan. Keep in mind, If Matt Turk makes a good snap in the playoff game against tampa, We go on to the championship game against the rams.
I like the Bruce/holt vs Green/Bailey matchup. I think we wouldve gone to the superbowl that year.

Btw, I still think spurrier would be a good Head Coach. We are still having the same problems with blocking that we had with spurrier except with spurrier we scored points.

Ownership, Coaches and players all need to play their parts. You can't have success without all the parts coming together.

Totally agree that players make coaches look alot smarter in alot of cases. If we had Drew Brees do you think our record would be 4-9? We might have 8 wins so far. Not that Belichek isn't a great coach but Tom Brady helps a whole lot.

There is a fine line in todays nfl. I thought Norv's team in 1999 was pretty good but we'll never know.

..after all Casserly did a marvelous job with the Texans.

Snyder admitted later on to casserly that he fired the wrong person.

Believe it or not Casserly wanted Bush. It was the owner and the new coach who wanted Williams. I would MUCH rather have Casserly than Vinny. Vinny REALLY SUCKS. Total ass kisser to Snyder. He's just Snyder's raquetball butt buddy. Vinny one time was playing holder for Snyder while Snyder was trying to kick field goals out on the practice field at Redskin Park. Snyder was pissed that the team was having trouble kicking field goals. Snyder thought it was real easy so he went out on the field and made Vinny play holder for him. Anyone hear about this story? I know it was reported a long time ago after Casserly was fired.

Casserly did have Williams rated really high but he did want to pick Bush. The owner did not want Bush because of the contract demands. Williams was more signable. I believe Mortonson reported it on ESPN.

Don't we all? Giggity-giggity-giggity-goo!

There's a lot of plausible deniability in the NFL. You can always claim that "the boss wanted them but I wanted him", who knows the real facts.

I thought Williams was Casserly's call all the way. He even said that he rated him higher than Julius Peppers when he came out.
