My big concern in the front office. I was going back and forth with Smootsmack yesterday on another thread about my concerns in the Front Office. We finally both agreed that with Gibbs around there is no immediate problem. Well now with Gibbs leaving we are back with the two headed draft failures in Cerratto/Snyder. These two guys wrote the book on how to mismanage player personnel and salary cap for an NFL Organization. Their track record is not very good. I do not want them running the front office. This is not good.
But... that may be exactly the kind of special advisory role Gibbs will play from this point forward to Dan and Vinny. I'm not willing to accept that those two guys haven't learned anything from 4 seasons of Gibbs' leadership.

Please no more Snyderatto runing the Redskins.
They have proven to be failures.
Why does Snyder have one set of rules for ability to do your job for players and coaches and another for him and Vinny?
I am not willing to accept them running the team again after the track record they left behind them. Gibbs is just now turning the team around from the mess they created.

This has probably been mentioned, but what about bringing Charley Casserly back?
He still does Redskins analysis for Comcast so he can't hate the team all that much for letting him go.
Plus, his last draft with Houston looks pretty good after 2 seasons.

Be careful you will piss alot people off by mentioning Casserly. I don't hate or like him, but for some reason some people hate him on this site.
Kind of weird.
But for some reason some like Cerratto. I am not sure why? Maybe it is all the success when he and Snyder were running the show.

Re: Gibbs to Resign as HC/President

i'm not upset at all. I'm almost happy. I think most of my posts show that I love gibbs and want him to stay but if he is ready to go then more power to him. He wouldn't leave us unless he felt that we were heading in the right direction. I'm not happy to see him go but happy that he feels he can go. Gibbs put all the pieces together. We are a FAR better team then we were when he came here. He did a fantastic job and i am happy for him. I'm not REALLY surprised and i wasn't when i heard it, especially after it was hinted at after his press conference yesterday.

Its all good. We have gone to the playoffs twice in the last 3 years and that is much better than the skins have been my whole life. Whats not to like. I love our players. Really, there are teams with crazy ass stupid players but we have character. We are fun. Every team in the NFL has a different type of character but i honestly like ours the best. All of our players are fun and good guys. Just look at the interviews from today and you can see our team is mature. I don't think many players act this way when their coach retires. They had a lot of respect for Gibbs and what he has done here. Rock said the team is like a family. I just hope it stays that way. I think it will if GW is our coach.

If we promote from within then gibbs is a fucking magician. He comes in and fixes up the team and slowly backs away and prepares us for his leaving. This year he took a step back in his duties and got us ready for when he was going to leave. That is awesome. He set this team up for future greatness. He is the man. Today is a good day. We should celebrate gibbs and nothing more today. Today isn't a bad day at all.

He didn't come back to win championships but he came back to put us in position to win in the future.

The day Coach Gibbs came back was one of the happiest days of my life.

Today is one of the saddest. I feel like crying.

Re: Gibbs to Resign as HC/President

God this sucks. I really wanted him to come back next year because if we get a new head coach that wasn't with the team last year (And even though I'd really like to see one of our coordinators get the job I know Snyder might renege on his promise to G-Will and look for someone else) that guy might not know how to handle this team after what we've gone through. I understand that that is what Joe wants to do though and I wish him the best, after what we've gone through this season I can understand him wanting to retire.

I'm sure Irish creamed himself when he woke up this morning and realized Gibbs bowed out.

I feel like Gibbs is hinting in his press conference that this will stay internal.

he definitely gave the impression that he'll be around so long as Snyder seeks his advice and he's not stepping on the toes of the new head coach. This alone is great for continuity. Gibbs will support whoever replaces him, and will help ease the difficulty of transition, should anyone but Williams get the nod.

I can't even begin to imagine what Offiss is doing right now. I think it involves ready-whip, a number 11 away Ramsey jersey, and a car battery
