Fassel meets with Redskins over coaching vacancies

I still think ultimately Williams will be the choice, and I know if he is he'd like to make Schwartz his top assistant. On the offensive side of the ball, not sure what they're aiming for. But I get a feeling we could see some West Coast offense
god, i hope your wrong, i think the west coast offense is the most boring offense ever invented, that, and then Campbell has another new offense to learn

I don't know...didn't I read on here somewhere that one of the 6 or 7 offenses he's played was a West Coast offense? I figure when you've been though that many, at some point you have to circle back around...if that's the case, the learning curve shouldn't be as steep...

Please not Jim Fassell. He did have a SB trip w/ the Gmen but from my memory he had alot of mediocre Giants teams w/ average qb's. They were kind of like us at the time. They were going to make stupid mistakes, probably not alot of offense, and average/below average qb play.

That sounds like a coach i'd like to have!! I'll be really upset if this works out. My pick of course is GW, but i'd rather have Schwartz than Fassell, come on Snyder...this is getting stupid quick.

West Coast offense???? If we change the offense around on JC then I'm going to drive over to Ashburn and call Snyder a dumbass.

Well i say if they do not keep Saunders, we might as well look for another qb also. mostly cuz this will be like the 8th different offense for Campbell in the last 9 yrs. of course Jason is gonna have problems.. WE NEED TO STAY AS WE ARE FOR OFFENSE.

I'm just saying we might (and I'm completely speculating here) see some more elements of it seeing as to how Campbell was most successful playing under that system.

Four years ago, I would have easily said Fassel (of course that was before any of us had any idea about Gibbs). Now I'm not as sure. I think he's a very underrated head coach and has done some really good things as a coordinator, but a.) I really hope he's not a stopgap measure until Snyder gets the guy he wants (Cowher in 2009) and b.) well there is no b, just something about it doesn't feel quite right.

I have that same feeling...I really didn't want Mora, and I would have been mad. I think with Fassel I get more of a sick feeling, like we're trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. I almost get the idea that Snyder is overthinking this...like I said in another thread, he'll get a free pass if he hires Williams and fails. If he goes and picks someone outside the organization and we go something like 5-11 or 6-10...people will not be as forgiving

Fassel is too conservative. I thought he ran a boring system in New York and in Baltimore. He had sucess w/ the Giants but that was ages ago.

Leave it all alone and bring Al Saunders back. Why is that so hard for Snyder to see and do.

3 years under the same scheme with two very good QBs and a healthy offensive line with Portis and our guys we make a title run.

He's going to fuck this up!

Sorry just my opinion......

Fassel is the kind of guy who is great as a head coach, but terrible as a coordinator!

I don't actually believe that, but I thought I'd mention it before someone else did.

If you want a little over 50 coach okay
Dan Reeves is better than that I believe
