Williams "absolutely" wants to replace Joe Gibbs

[Texanskin]

man, if GW is not our coach...I really feel that our team will go back to the pre-Gibbs II era. I am really concerned about this. I just came off an emotional season, making the playoffs. Going back to always missing the playoffs because we have to rebuild or we dont have team chemistry amoung coaches is bull crap. Our players loved Gibbs AND his staff!!!

Why is everybody so convinced if GW does not become coach the team will be demolished and rebuilt? I didnt see Tomlin come in and blow up the Steelers and begin a rebuild. Any coach coming to the Skins (GW included)will recognize who is here that can play and where improvements can be made and make those improvements (as Gibbs would have done if he stayed). An NFL team is never a "finished" product.

Tomlin was brought in from the Vikings where he was their defensive coordinator.

You're right you really did just come off an emotional season. No I in team. Just felt like pointing that out. Now to be serious, I agree with you man, it is one of those situations where things were really working well for the team and "it it ain't broke, don't fix it" is a mentality we should think about as we go through appointing a new coach.
