Re: If Not Joe, Then Who?
I think it will be Williams, and I think he will probably fail. The last time they re-signed Williams, they all but came out and said he would be the coach when Gibbs leaves(They can't actually say that because of hiring regulations).
I do think it would be good to let Saunders run the offense the way he wants, not some butchered half Joe/half Al flavor of it. If it doesn't work, move on, but at least let him run it the way he wants to and find out.
I don't know who I want to be the next head coach, but I feel confident Danny will not pick a good one. He won't hire a GM, so how can we trust him to hire a coach. If he doesn't recognize there name in the paper, he is not interested. He manages this team the way I manage my Madden 2008 game(Except I actually win). Nothing matters if they don't start with a GM and give that GM power and some control.
I love Gibbs, he has been responsible for 95% of the greatest sports fan moments of my life. That is why it hurts to feel that he needs to go. I don't believe this team is any better now than when he got here. I would give no other coach this long, but I just have a hard time staying mad at Gibbs. Danny would never fire him, but I think Joe will realize his time here has been a failure and step down. Oh well, just more sad thoughts for a sad week.
