Gibbs to Resign as HC/President

This is a team that has turned things around...they are not far from being a consistant playoff team. Hiring someone from outside with assure 2 things...

Greg Williams will leave to be a Head Coach elsewhere.
Al Saunders will leave too.

Both of those are bad....very bad.

I say, 90% Greg Williams will be our new coach and Saunders will stay.
Our owner aint that stupid to risk losing that much coaching talent.

No, but he is THAT greedy

I saw it in his eyes in that presser last night! Greg Williams will take over, mark my word! He cut a back end deal with Snyder two years ago to be the successor. Its a sad day, but I feel good about Greg.

Well, at least there is one benefit.

New coaches get an extra mini-camp.

Greg Williams is more aggressive than Joe Gibbs, which is what I would like to see. Make Greg the Head coach and keep Saunders. They run both the Offense and the Defense anyway. Joe has just been a supervisor for 2 years. It still stinks though!

This is exactly 100% correct. As much as I love Joe Gibbs the man, he is just too conservative for today's NFL IMO. GW and AS would make a nice 1-2 combo. I hope things stay in house.

People also need to realize that the man is 67 years old. With the death of ST, I bet that it really made him realize that he needs to be with his family at this point of his life. His grandchild is sick with cancer, he's away from his wife/children and he has nothing to prove. I'm happy for Joe.

What about a new team president?
If we don't hire someone else will all the personnel decisions fall on the shoulders of Danny and Vinny, with the new HC making some suggestions here and there?
That's a thought that scares the hell out of me.

Yeah Hogtimus, it was M&M speculating. I HATE that move.

Freddy: this is interesting -- Mort said there is no such clause in GWill's contract.

No, he said there IS a clause in his contract. And If anyone thinks Pete Carroll should be considered, you need serious medication.

Well none of us saw this coming. The fact that he won't be back anything but a small capacity is even more surprising. Hopefully we'll get a GM so no one will ever say we need a GM ever again.

After i heard the press conference yesterday i got that feeling...I had a dream last night GW was the new head coach of the skins.

I wish JG would have stayed for 1 more year. If not JG i'd like to see GW.

No, he said there IS a clause in his contract. And If anyone thinks Pete Carroll should be considered, you need serious medication.

He initially reported that there was a clause, but he immediately called back after talking to an official in the Redskins organization and said that there was no such clause.

That depends on whom the GM may or may not be!
