Some guys are great coordinators, but suck at being head coaches. Here, I'll name a few.

Don Capers
Wade Phillips
Norv Turner
Greg Williams
Charlie Wiess
Dick Jauron


I'm sure I can come up with a few more given more time.

While I'm not necessarily defending Gregg Williams as a head coach, let me state that just because a guy sucks it up as head coach on one team doesn't meant he will never be head coach material. Just take a look at Bill Belichick. Compiled a 36-44 record from '91 -'95 as the Cleveland head coach and look what he did in New England.

But as far as Vinny goes, the best thing he could have done for the Redskins was to hire Zorn as head coach, because that move ultimately led to the demise of Vinny Cerrato as Redskins' General Manager and that's a good thing.
