Well, I don't agree that replacing Saunders means stability is completely out the window. A lot would depend on what sort of new offense is brought in. Who knows, it just might be one that suits Campbell better.

True, maybe Campbell just isn't meant for the Saunders offense. It is a shame though if Saunders leaves, because the whole team seemed to be making progress offensively.

But the good thing is that the Jackson offense isn't more complex than Saunders'. And it may, in fact, be similar; but scaled down.

Didn't Campbell have his best year in College when he was in the West Coast offense?

Throw stability out the window if you want. I still want to see Saunders get one more year, but this time with a healthy starting O-line, a top flight receiver who's not dropping multiple passes every other game, and the absolute freedom to call whatever play he wants.

I don't think the guy completely lost all his marbles from the time he was in K.C. putting up huge numbers.

It's certainly possible that JC could do better in a less complex offense. Perhaps JC is having a hard time committing to memory Saunders' infamous 700 page playbook. However, without getting inside JC's brain, one would have to think that, at least in the short term, his development may be stunted by changing coordinators.

I also agree with Beems' sentiment that it would probably be good to give Saunders' offense another year to show what it can do. After seeing how well it performed when TC started playing, I think it would be wrong to not give it another chance. It's not like Saunders is running an unproven system.

I am pretty wary of keeping Saunders at this point based on the complete conjecture that he'd represent a control threat to Williams. I feel like a HC needs to be the main guy calling the shots and if Williams is forced to keep Saunders that immediately puts a chink into the control armo. I am of course assuming a lot but I just get that feeling. Of course if Williams wants to keep Saunders and is simply trying to convince them to do so then I'd want to keep him. Long term I just want Williams to get the job without any encumbrances to his authority and if Saunders is one then he needs to go.

Williams is a D guy so whoever is here to run the O will probably have total control over what is run and done. So having Saunders here should not cause any problems.

I hope saunders stays, todd collins was playing his style offense and was doing good

At this point I really think it's unlikely that Saunders will be back. Just my take.

I disagree.
We are all just used to quick action around here.
Just because it is taking some time does not mean Saunders wont remain as the offensive coach.
Most of the coaches brought in were Defensive anyways...that would lead you to believe that Snyder is impressed with the offense.

Don't jump the gun....we should know in about another week.
I still say it will be Williams Saunders combo.
Odds are high based on the long term plan when they hired them.
