It's official - Al Saunders is our new offensive coordinator!

man, please get saunders. our aerial game will be so much better!

Well, it probably would read: Assistant Head Coach/Offense
Gregg Williams: Assistant Head Coach/Defense

I don't think it really means he would jump the gun over Williams. Besides, Williams is clearly the "unspoken" favorite to succeed Gibbs in the grand scheme of things. Also remember, per ESPN, Gregg Williams has a clause that if he's still on the staff when Gibbs retires and doesn't get the head coaching job, he get's $1 mil. So, I would have to think that unless GW falls out with Snyder and Gibbs or just flat out leaves, he'll be the next head coach.

Why do I get the feeling that if Snyder chose someone else, he's not going to have any problem handing over $1 million to GW?

Looks like it could be a done deal.

You're so right. And not only that, but the available choices that GW had this year probably won't be as attractive to him when that day comes anyway.

Yep, looks like it is. This is great guys. I might have to have a couple drinks tonight to celebrate!

Bigskinbauer, you're good at this. Give us a little celebration post (ala your "welcome").

:towel: :food-smil :headbange :party-smi :woot:

This is well worth a new thread because the news is official! Wow, what a signing...from a top scoring offense in the NFL for a long time. Everyone has always said Gibbs is an increadible manager who is skilled at his picking people; lets hope this is just another step in a winning direction.

My only hope is that its not "too many cooks spoil the soup." However, I cant imagine that Gibbs would have brought him in if he thought anything like that...GO SKINS!

yayayayayayayayayaya! look out nfl!

Kansascity.com scoops the Washpost!


WOW! This is HUGE!

I think this will really help our offense this year. If Brunell stays healthy, or if perhaps Campbell gets a chance and does good, i could see us having one of the top offenses in the league next year.
