My point is that simply on the surface w/out knowing any more than we do, Snyder's behavior thus far since Gibbs announcement doesn't give the fans much confidence that he indeed has changed.
I guess I agree w/JLC who said that his "vow of silence" hurts his image & leads to speculation about him wanting to hire from the outside. We're all speculating here anyway, but I'll also say that Shneed has good points about all signs so far indicating he'll not hire GW. Whether any of it can be chalked up to impatience or not, I don't know, but it does seem that Snyder is showing early signs of his old ways.
Maybe he's just trying to increase traffic on redskins.com?

Well, he does have a head coach opening and would like to fill it as soon as reasonably possible. I guess I don't see issues with the speed and timing of the last 2 days. What would be a more preferable pace to you? If he took a day off in-between interviews?
The truth is right now we really don't know much other than:
-Schwartz was interviewed.
-Apparently Russ Grimm may be next.
-Williams is definitely part of the conversation and will probably interview at some point.
-Gibbs is involved in the process, to what extent nobody is sure.
-Cowher is still adamant that he's not coming back this year.
-Joe Theismann is not a part of the process to find the next coach.
Everything else is pure speculation and some people are really getting ahead of themselves here. I honestly haven't seen or heard anything yet to indicate that Snyder is "back to his old ways". Has he signed any aging big name free agents to mega deals? Did he start charging for training camp again?
If anything it sounds like to me he is being patient and letting the process play out.
