Of course there will be some change, but it wouldn't be as radical if they bring in someone from the outside.

Personally, I can see Williams taking over for a variety of reasons. For starters, if Gibbs stays on as team president he's going to have a significant say in the matter. I can't see Gibbs going after a so called "sexy" hire, I think he would want to minimize the changes as much as possible and hiring from within is the way to go in that respect.

The fact that Williams has stayed on when he could have easily jumped ship a few times for head coaching jobs around the league tells me that some sort of informal agreement may already be in place. Yes I know the $1M buyout that's in place on his contract really doesn't mean much considering we're talking about Snyder, but I still think it represents the fact that this idea has been discussed behind closed doors and some sort of arrangement may already be in place.


I'll go on record to say i'd like to see GW as head coach whenever JG's leaves. Who knows what Snyder will do? You're probably right about the buyout but Snyder wouldn't blink to pay that buyout if he could get a top tier coach.

Joe Gibbs is a wonderful person and WAS a great coach. The other bigger problem is the owner, but we can not fire the owner - so ya Bill Cowher - Big Tuna - Jimmy Johnson, Satan, anyone!!!

That's because we had Spurrier at the time. In hindsight it would have been better to can that experiment gone wrong and hand it over to Lewis, but as the saying goes hindsight is always 20/20.

Why is a young first time hire the answer?

Tomlin stepped into a great situation in Pittsburgh and that undoubtedy has been a big reason for his success. How are things working out for Kiffin in Oakland? How about Mangini sitting at 1-8 in NY?

Just wondering why you feel that unless we hire a young guy then things are doomed.


Don't forget the wonderful job Cam Cameron is doing down in Miami...lol

Marvin Lewis isn't exactly setting the world on fire in Cincinnati though. Some say it's because of the "character issues" he has on his team. But it's not likely he was sitting idly by without any input when these selections were made.

I've heard the same thing about Williams and Snyder.

I have mixed feelings about him being the next head coach. Besides, don't we have to interview other candidates because of the Rooney Rule anyway?


Well we are in agreement on this one SS, I don't believe Williams is head coaching material at all.

I feel compelled to change my opinion now...

Seriously though, all I'm saying is don't just hand him the job. I have these fears of Gibbs handing the reins over to Williams only to have GW say "Thanks...I quit" a la Parcells and Belichick back with the Jets
