We (as in Dad & I) were disappointed when Gibbs resigned, but were hopeful that Williams would take over as head coach. Most of the players interviewed seemed to want that continuity. Now what?
I love what Sally Jenkins has to say in the Washington Post: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/conte...8012503432.html
Especially this:
The hope was that Snyder had matured with four years of tutelage under Joe Gibbs. But maybe there was a reason Gibbs walked away with a smile. In the last two weeks, Snyder has seemed as duplicitous and addicted to misdirection as ever. He promised "continuity" for the organization and has proceeded to tear it apart, treating people like trees that block his view of the Potomac.
And this:
Snyder may yet pull off a decent hire, but at the moment, his credibility is sinking faster than Six Flags stock. He's badly devalued the job of Redskins head coach. You wonder if Jim Mora bowed out early because he just didn't want the headache. In the past two weeks, Snyder has led two solid, experienced coaches to the altar only to strand them. At last report, he was interested in a couple of relative unknowns in young coordinators Josh McDaniels of the New England Patriots and Steve Spagnuolo of the New York Giants. Why would the Redskins pursue untried assistants, who are merely less experienced versions of Williams and Al Saunders? Only Snyder can answer that.
Many of the players are going to be free agents next season. Here we go again with rebuilding while Danny plays around with his millions
