Relax it was a joke. Actually I agree with your post. There is now way we should be talking to Cohwer or anybody else right now. I have all the faith in the world in Gibbs and hope he stay’s as long as he want’s.
Your right about your sig though. It does make me want to take stabs at you. All in good fun of course.

I doubt very seriously the team had ANYTHING TO DO with a leak of any sort of this fashion.

After looking at the link at the bottom, it says PFT.com......total shit! Somebody farts and they report it as news or rumor. After looking at the source I truthfully don't put one ounce of merit in this BULLSHIT RUMOR!

Still like BC....as a coach of any team. But this is JUNK!

He's not coming here. It won't happen.

[GusFrerotte]

Never know Skins, there could be some merit to it. BC might have just needed a break from Pittsburgh, or saw that the party was coming to an end there. Coach Gibbs is probably going to step down soon and Williams already had a failing grade at Buffalo. Of course he is more loaded here, but still, not sure he is HC material. Don't know about Saunders either. His first year offense sucked. Gibbs offense was great, wide open etc during Gibbs I. Wish we could go back to that.

[GusFrerotte]

A denial doesn't mean much, just means they don't want the issue to become public if it was true. I for one hope that they are at least thinking about it. I don't think our asst HC's are good candidate material.

Well you're right about he helmet in my sig....I might as well paint a target. Sorry about the spout off.

As for the reality of Cowher and his return to the NFL. One, lets consider his salary that he will be looking at. Probably somewhere in the 6 to 7 mill per year range.

There are only about 5 or 6 teams in the league that can afford a coaches salary that is that high....and three of those teams are in the NFC East. Washington, Dallas and Philly.

If there is any truth to this (which I highly doubt) than I would not be surprised to see Cowher roaming the Washington sidelines in '08.

Disagree. We all know who the Headcoach is, and so do GW & AS, and the rest of the staff. There is no split there, most ALL teams have a D- coach. & O-coach, last time I checked.

I'm quite sure every coach and staff member knows who the real boss is besides DANNY BOY....JOE

I would rather us hire GW as head coach. We don't need Cowher one damn bit. Cowher is just trying to get paid cause he was under paid in Pittsburgh. If he coached here that means he is going to try and change the defense to a 3-4 so there would be an adjustment period. We would have to get players to try and fit that scheme. Plus he would probably overhaul the offensive coaches. That would mean JC learning another offense. Hire from within. We have two coordinators who are more than qualified to be head coaches. They have both been head coaches. Hell, they make more than alot of head coaches. You mean to tell me that you pay two guys a shit load of money to be coordinators yet you are afraid to let them be head coaches? That makes no sense to me. If GW isn't here then let AS coach the team.

Dallas would be a better fit for him. Wade is going to get fired after next year anyway. Plus you guys already play the 3-4.

That said, why does this keep being brought up every few months?

I really dont know. But if gibbs leaves in 2007 I want Cowher.

[GMScud]

I heard very similar speculation months ago. It's an interesting thought. Gibbs has 2 seasons at best left in him, so why not? Cowher is what, 48? That's almost 20 years younger than Joe. And his style fits a Joe Gibbs footprint. Discipline, character, etc, etc. If it happens we'll probably get laughed at for "bribing" G.Williams by offering him $1M if we didn't make him Gibbs' successor and then choosing someone else.

[EARTHQUAKE2689]

I guess i am the only one up.
