It looks like they are going to try to pull Josh McDaniels out of a hat.

So for all the Snyder bashers and the ones said he hs throwning away all Gibbs has done it looks as if Gibbs is right in the middle of everything going on right now.

Wrong, because in another article on WaPo it clearly stated that Williams had the support of Gibbs but Snyder was the one with the issues. Clearly Joe is being dispatched to once again sooth the people Snyder has irritated.

Looks to me as if Gibbs is doing some dirty work for the Danny by calling coaches & trying to get them to chill.

Re: Gibbs says it can be weeks...

It should've never amounted to this. To have Gibbs act as Snyder's surrogate on what should be now only Snyder's responsibility (the failure of the head coach selection process) is no way to regain the trust/faith from the assistants who've been left in the dark. It smells of nothing but a warm, folksy gesture from Danny Boy....I just don't think he could muster the guts to speak to the assistants himself.

As far as the impact this will have on the franchise (the longer wait), I'm not sure if it will be a net positive or negative. Of course, this does expand the field of candidates and allows management to mull over all the options a bit more. How much does it screw up the free agency signing period and Scouting Combine focus are unanswerable questions. I just hope we emerge from this as less of a laughingstock than perhaps we've just become again.

He's the trasistioning head coach. He's being consulted but not involved in the interview process.

He wants to leave on the up and up.

Re: Gibbs says it can be weeks...

Doesn't this whole process send a message to our in house coaches. I gues they are not the first or second choice...but hang in there with me...if we can't our fourth or fifth choice then I will have you guys just leave your personal effects in your offices for another year. Thanks for your patience.


Sounds like a foolish way to go about hiring or promoting your own staff.

Josh has done nothing but call plays and watch Tom Brady and Randy Moss work.

Re: Gibbs says it can be weeks...

Also why is Gibbs doing any contacting of assistants? Is he doing this out of friendship?

He is no longer their head coach/co-worker. There is no professional relation between these guys anymore so who put Gibbs up to this???

...Oh that's right our spineless owner. Grow some balls and do your job Snyder. Gibbs isn't there to bail you out anymore so quit using him as a goodwill messenger.

Re: Gibbs says it can be weeks...

*sigh*

Would it be possible for the entire Redskins fanbase to band together and buy the Skins?...ah la the Green Bay Packers?...I'm sure at this point rank amateurs could do a better job at least in the PR department than Danny and Co. have....
