I have been patient and letting things 'play out' for 8 years with Snyderatto. You act like this something new and has never happened before. Just when we start making progress with Gibbs, everything gets blown up.
What irks me is the way the old staff was left in the dark. These guys are not some ordinary group. They (GW & Saunders) are some of the most qualified and respected coaches in the league. Why get rid of the them for the sake of change?

I don't think they were 'released' for the sake of change.. Offensively, Saunders was brought in to take the team to the next level. It didn't happen. We were 15th in offense and 18th in scoring, that's mediocre. Granted, Gibbs handcuffed him and he didn't really 'run the show' but if management wasn't comfortable with how things are going they made that move for the betterment of the team.

As for GW, it's simple. He wasn't going to be the head coach and it'd be an insult, especially to someone with an ego the size of GW, to be subordinate to another head coach.

Pretty much.
