May the Schwartz be with you?

Have any players on the offensive side of the ball proclaimed their respect for Williams?

Anyhow, I still think there's just one small (not so small?) issue keeping Williams from getting the job. If that's resolved it's his job. It not, Schwartz is one of the better (best?) alternatives.

Snyder could pick Jesus himself to coach and people would complain that he didn't hire God as his GM

I saw on an article that Sellers did. I don't know how much weight you put on that, but he did.

I dont know if Sellers did or not,but ARE did

"Starters on both offense and defense began lobbying for Williams yesterday, including wide receiver Antwaan Randle El, who won a Super Bowl with Cowher in Pittsburgh. "I want the best coach for the job, and Gregg certainly is at the top of the list, no doubt," Randle El said. "I would love to see him get it just 'cause we've gotten going with the crew that we have here. I would love to see Gregg keep it."

also i dont know what scwhartz looks like,is he white or black? I'm assuming he's a white guy so he doesnt count for the rooney rule

Cool. Thanks

Yeah but a lot of times his sources are just people who comment on situations and give their thoughts and aren't necessarily privy to any sort of true inside info.

Well I think we can assume with almost 100% certainty that none of his source are Gibbs, Cerrato and Snyder. Other than those 3 guys and maybe Pepper Rodgers anyone else is just speculating on the matter because surely The Dan is not a round tabler. I love what JLC does but he relies a bunch on these inside sources when it comes to the front office and he is very often off the mark. He is great at working the scouts, players and coaches as it applies to football and it's execution but he doesn't seem to have nearly the relationship with the real decision makers on the business side of things. When it comes to something like this I think we have to take what he says with a serious grain of salt.

At the end of the day everything that Schneed points to as signs that GW won't get the job are really only signs that don't point to him getting it. None of them really jump out and say "Hey this obviously means they are not going to hire GW". They really aren't exclusionary at all.

Schwartz sounds like a pretty sexy pick up. The more I read, the more I like. I'm still on the Russ Grimm bandwagon. Bring him in, make him HC, Bugel will leave, and GW and AS stay put.

Not a huge shakeup, but it's someone the D.C. people could rally behind.

Man... these percocets just kicked in... my teeth no longer hurt... and I'm going to bed. Night folks.

who's that

But then why the interest in Bill Cowher? Maybe Bill Cowher was Plan A, and since he's not interested, GW with Schwartz and Saunders is Plan B? Maybe the Cowher thing was bad rumor?

I think you are buying into the media hype too much on this. Honestly, we all know Snyder. Every single one of us knows that if Snyder wanted Cowher so bad that either

a) Bill Cowher would have been introduced today as our head coach at a salary of like 12 mil a year
or
b) everyone would know that Cowher turned down Snyders offer of 12 mil a year because he didn't want the job.

Snyder does this. He makes it happen and he makes it happen now when he wants something.

The only thing stopping him now is the Rooney Rule. I honestly think this looks like they are trying to appear like they are taking this "process" seriously. Why in the hell would Snyder ever in a million years hire a basically unknown guy who is a disciple of an heir apparent he already has? Snyder doesn't do that. He makes sexy signings not understated signings. That aint his bag baby.

Damn you I wish you'd just spill the beans.
