2.) Snyder and Williams have never had a strong relationship, made worse over the past couple of years. Yet Gibbs served as a buffer to the two of them. And once Gibbs left, the two of them (Williams and Snyder) knowing that Gibbs wish apparently was for Williams to assume the reigns tried desperately to make it work. Hence the three or four very lengthy interviews. But ultimately their differences were simply too much.

If you're right, I'm really hoping it was the latter. For it to just be about money would be pretty shitty after what Williams did for the team. But I certainly wouldn't put it past Danny.
