So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

I know Williams contract is set up in a way that makes him the MOST LIKELY to succeed Joe Gibbs, however, with the bad defense and bad year in general, what do you guys think will happen????? Last year it seemed to be all but a formality once JG retired. I THINK WILLIAMS AUTHORITARIAN ATTITUDE WOULD BE A GREAT KICK IN THE BUTT!!! Say what you want about Tom Coughlin, he took a talented undisciplined team and turned them into a strong, playoff bound team.

i hope he is, we need consistency

I agree, we need swift kick! We've got to much talent to be faltering like this!

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

Right now GW's authoritarian attitude isn't even getting the defense in line. Granted, I know there are injuries but it's something he'll have to face as a head coach as well

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

he lost his cockiness real quick this year.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

I'm not sold on Greg Williams as a head coach. and the 1 million dollar bonus guaranteed by Snyder doesn't guarantee anything. thats chump change to Snyder

Dude! My thoughts exactly! Are we like brothers or something?

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

I doubt he will be our next head coach.

Snyder will go for a more sexy hire. Think along the lines of a Charlie Weiss.

Pretty strong rumors circulating that Weiss will be the next Cowboys coach

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

I'm not sure about Williams. Of course, I keep having Richie Petitbon flashbacks, so that's not helping either.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

If I could remember where I put my 8-Ball, I could get a good source to answer your question.

Is the question 'Do you thiiink he will be the next coach ' OR 'Do you think he will be the best choice for head coach'?

To ask this question today is an exercise in playing 'what if' games. Too much unpredicatable future involved to even present a valid analysis of what would be best at the coaching decision milestone point.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

he's more than deserved his chance, especially if he manages to get a handle on this year's defense.

i'd much prefer Williams over Saunders though.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

I think if Williams gets the defense back in shape (I'm thinking after the bye week), he'll be a likely candidate.

Yeah I didn't mean Weiss specifically, just a splashy name.

I don't see Snyder and Williams meshing very well. Williams is cut from the same mold of a Marty Schottenheimer. I could see GW wanting more control than Snyder would be willing to give up.

But who knows, all of this is pure speculation at this point obviously, and Gibbs still has 2 years left on his contract. I don't envision him giving up so easily.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

I never wanted him to be the next head coach. I think he's a great defensive coordinator, but he's not suited to be a head coach. He needs to consistently put out a good defense before we start talking about him as the head guy. The only way I would be happy is if he's the head coach and Saunders is in charge of offense or they have a new head coach come in and keep Saunders and Williams.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

I still think not only is Williams our best choice, the paperwork is practically done. Greg Williams' defense has been amazing nearly every year in the league. This one is an abiration.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

GW probably deserves a shot at it. I'd like to see it. This season is not the norm in regards to the D. He's smart enough to see what this team needs.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

I'd hate to see a coaching change, but if it HAS to happen then I would rather someone internal get a chance, than to bring in a new guy. Williams seems like a good choice. But, what I really want is to have a long-tenured coaching staff without all the overhaul every 5 years.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

As far as internal candidates, I really think Greg Blache deserves a shot as a head coach. If not here, then somewhere. He should have been the head coach of the 49ers

For some reason I agree with Tafkas.....Gibbs may not seem like a disciplinarian, but behind closed doors I'm sure he tightens up the ship if that needs done. I remember on a few occassions where Williams has said that behind closed doors Gibbs is a different person. There is no way in Hell that Gibbs has been as successful as he's been without having his players and drivers disciplined. That golly geez type attitude is not always present I guarantee. We don't need Williams to kick us in the ass.....stay with Gibbs for his 5 years.....good or bad. Then if Williams wants to take over and we give him the job....great.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

Coaching Changes are the last thing we need right now, if Gibbs leaves, we should def let williams and saunders stick around. Both are proven coaches with good gameplans, we just don't have the defensive talent this year. Change sucks as we have learned year after year. When we don't change, we have our most successfull years.

One thing is for sure, he'll never be lost for words. That guy can really talk, he answers questions before a/the reporter finishes asking them. Guys may not be buying into him the way we origionally thought.

Ever seen those Guisness commercials??

BRILLIANT!

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

How about Bill Cowher, Boomer Esisaon on dc 101 noted the skins will go after him after this year, i am not sure if this was a joke or real. It's probably a smoking gun. We should try to get him however!

Lots of rumors are surrounding Cower at the moment. The Rooneys are tight wads and probably won't pay him what he's worth and Cowher doesn't get along too well with Art Jr. whose taking over operations. He bought a home in Raleigh and word is NC State will probably offer him the HC position there. He's said he views his job as a year to year thing, so who knows how long he'll stay in Pittsburgh. I guess it depends on who makes him the best offer.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

if he's not our next coach look for the season we have with the new coach to look like this current season or worse.

we definitely need the continuity. i think if we get a #1 CB then we're dominant again. some help on the DL wouldn't hurt either.

personally though, i'll wait and see how this season ends up.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

hopefully gibbs finishes out his contract then becomes GM while williams and saunders become co-head coaches.

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

Let’s just hope we don't have to worry about this topic for at least 2 more years. I'm not jumping off of Gibbs ship yet. And I doubt I ever will. I just hope if we lose to Dallas and Philly we start J.C at QB. He's going to need some experience for next year. I would really hate to start 2007 with a QB that has never started an NFL game.

I agree with you. I think it would be crazy not to keep GW. I know everyone here in Washington lives by "what have you done for me lately" but lets not lose our heads either.

GW has been a proven defensive guru that get's the most our of the players he's given. He excells in designing he defense around the talent, not vice versa. I think he made some poor decisions this season, but I think he's a good enough coach to learn from them and I'm sure we'll be right amoung the elite again in another year.

With the devotion Gibbs has for Brunell, it wouldn't suprise me at all if Brunell is not in his plans for next year.

I would hope Joe Gibbs has a major say in who is the next coach.

As shitty as our defense has been I hope not

Re: So Will Greg Williams Be Our Next Coach??
 

I actually think the Job is going to Al Saunders. Why else would Joe Gibbs want to invest the time to install a brand spanking new offense when our offense last year was 10-6. He is an offensive genius, and I personally think he should have succeeded Dick Vermeil in Kansas City.

I certainly hope not, I don't think Brunell is ready to be a head coach just yet.:banghead:
