Lindsey's firing....what does it mean

Things just don't add up. The public relations word is that he was too outspoken. However, I know there have been outspoken coaches under Gibbs before. I think there is more to this story....

1. Could Lindsey be involved in the article bashing G. Williams?
2. Could Lindsey's loyalty to Holdman and keeping Rocky on the bench be another issue?
3. Could it be that he was a divisive figure in the locker room? Did he lose the position players? The reason I ask, is that first Lavar, now I don't see ANY public defense of Lindsey by either Marshall or Washington, or Holdman.

4. All of the above??

Just my 2 cents....

Obviously he was a bad coach since Holdman (a more talented linebacker than Lavar and Rocky) has looked so bad under Lindsey.

B-Mitch had a funny line on his show. He said that the Redskins had one linebacker on the team and he wasn't referring to the converted safety or "Highway 57".

I'm not saying Lindsey deserved to be scapegoated but I think that when you look at all the coaches that could have been canned he was the one that could be fired without causing the most disruption to the D.

I would think that firing one of our 2 secondary coaches would be less disruptive. After all Lindsey was the "only" LB coach.

I'm prone to believe he was fired after Gibbs compiled all of the responses given by the players and coaching staff during the exit interviews (or whatever they're called). He probably noticed some similiarities between players and coaches comments suggesting that Lindsey's presence was not going to be conducive to the success of the team in 2007.

if your an a-hole and you're guys play well, you keep your job. when they play as poorly as they did this year though... (not that its his fault holdman sucked)

I'm all for trimming the staff though. Two down (lindsey, (coy) gibbs), more to go (hopefully).

He never put money into Gibbs' cuss jar and that really upset him.

What kind of underwear does the team wear? ;)

(I'm sorry, that was SO cheezy)

Look at all the changes that go on all around the NFL. Assistant coaches come and go all the time. So I look at it like changing underwear. It's no big deal. I would expect Jackson to go too.

Means just maybe Lavar was right.
