Who is Next?

[dcweldon]

The last thing this team needs to go through, especially after the loss of a teammate, is an overhaul of the coaching staff.

LaVar said it best in his 5th season with the redskins, "In five years, I've had five defensive coordinators, all preaching different schemes." If we bring in anyone else, other than someone who is already in the system, how do we expect to get back to the playoffs?

Here is my thought, Daniel Snyder brought Joe Gibbs back to help rebuild the Washington Redskins (not win a Super Bowl), and Joe did that. We went to 2 playoff appearances in four years under Coach Gibbs. We brought a higher level of playing back to Washington, great personnel has been brought into Redskins park. I think that Joe Gibb's job doesn't end here, but it continues with Daniel Snyder, throughout the search for the next head coach. Whether or not Joe Gibbs stays on in some capacity as an adviser or some other position, shouldn't be the concern of the team.

Took keep the solid outlook of our team, going outside of our current staff, would be unwise. This coaching staff does not need a change or a fresh face to come in and lead this team.

If for some reason the Redskins do get a head coach from the outside, let's all pray that the new head coach and Greg Williams can work something out so that Greg will stay. (similar to the Pittsburgh Steeler's head coach Mike Tomlin and Dick Lebeau)

Let's not kid ourselves, if Greg Williams is not promoted to Head Coach, he will leave, and the continued unprofessional-ism that our owner presents himself amongst the coaching elite (the NFL as a coaching whole) will only further drive this franchise into a deeper whole in years to come.

You really think a owner hired a guy for 5 years just to come in and rebuild a team and not to try and win a SB? If that is true then its a big insult to Gibbs.

Yeah that just doesn't make much sense.

He came back for several reasons, all which are related. He came back to win... and the ultimate goal of winning is of course the Super Bowl, bring stability back to the franchise, and to leave them better off than when he got here.

This has to go to Greg Williams -- Keep Saunders around as OC with full control of the offense, promote Blache to ass. HC Defense. It's already setup for a perfect transition -- do it.

I have to disagree with you on this one daseal, I don't believe either Williams or Saunders are true head coaching material, Cower would be a great fit right now. The problem will arise with Williams if he doesn't get the nod for head coach, but I just think he's a very good coordinator and that is as far as it goes, but I do think he may get the promotion ala Richie Petitebone, but it wont work out, I guess we will just have to wait and see.

AGREED. GW is the best for now
snyder already give us a hint a year ago that GW will be the man if
coach Joe steps down.

no reset button please or else we suffer

I don't see why Snyder would screw something so easy up. The team became a family this year. Why would anyone wanna screw something so special up. Didn't they say a few years ago that Williams would take over once Gibbs leaves?

I think all of this is a smokescreen becuz policy for the league is policy. The skins will interview people with no intentions of hiring them. Im sure this has already been explained to GW. I think the team will be in tact next year with GW at the helm.

I agree bud, they have to go through the motions of interviewing minority candidates before they can hire him officially. My last post was more in jest, although if Danny gets in over his head again who knows?

Daeeal that would be perfect but nothing ever works out for us lately. I would be surprised if this happens. I do not want Cowher anymore! At first I did but we need somebody who we are familiar with.

What makes you guys think that GW can lead the complete team? The table is set to get in a proven coach-Cowher. Dont get me wrong, Williams has done wonders on the defense but look at Buffalo-he didnt seem to have it all. GW has had some questionable free agent pick ups too. lets not forget arch deluxe.

Snyder went after Arch Deluxe, GW wanted to keep Ryan Clark and he alluded to it last year.

Understand your concern. Just remember coaches like Shanahan and Bellicheck (forgive the spelling) didn't start off so hot either with their first teams. Shanahan was canahaned by the Raiduhs. I can't remember exactly where Belli(whatever) first head-coached (Browns? Jets?) and whether he was fired. Of course we can't forget the debacle with former DC Richie Pettibone when he took over for Gibbs 1.0. Hopefully, if GW is given the job, he won't bring about the same poor results following Gibbs 2.0.

When Greg Williams took over Buffalo they were in cap hell, and did not have the Redskins cap management mentality. They have done nothing since he left.

Belli(whatever) coached the Browns... I think GW is the big front runner and the fact that Gibbs is staying on in the selection process will help. espn.com put together their short list and like always I hope they are way off base. I like Grimm and Singletary but others like Billick? blah

[Tha Posse]

Why is Spurrier even suggested on this thread, WTF?? GW all the way, we are in a perfect situation for everything to fall into place. If that doesn't happen it will be the most retarded thing I've seen in a while. I say that and watch Bugel be named head coach!
