Gregg Williams Is Gone

Gregg Williams Is Gone
Williams, assistant head coach - defense, had a meeting with owner Dan Snyder this morning acccording to his agent Marv Demoff, and is no longer a part of the organization. The sides mutual aggreed that he was no longer a candidate, Demoff said, and will move on.

The meeting was pleasant and productive, Demoff said, and Williams intended to withdraw from their coaching search Tuesday. At the urging of Joe Gibs he stayed in the process. He reached out to Gibsb again Thursday and Friday and was asked to stay in, Demoff said. So he did.

In today's meeting Williams asked Snyder abouyt media reports that he had disrecpetd Joe Gibbs. "Both Sndyer and Ceerato agreed that that had never occured and those reports were totally false," Demoff said. "They wished each othger well int he future and the sides parted."

I FREAKING SO DEPRESSED RIGHT NOW

Another new era begins or should I say rebuild.

I really don't know what to say. This is so f-ing crazy. WTF?

I am disappointed too. I really liked Gregg Williams. Maybe if Gibbs had stayed one year longer, things would be different for Williams in the next offseason. Nevertheless, looks like it could be Jim Fassel or Steve Spagnuolo or Ron Meeks, or.....I'm getting a headache now.

Him and Schwartz flip?

What? I thought Blache was thinking of retiring? He didn't seem to be interested in the position.

For Williams' sake it would have been nice if this had happened sooner so he could have been a candidate for some head coaching jobs (Atlanta, Baltimore).

Blache taking over wouldn't be too surprising, though I think he'd prefer not to stay. Not for any reason other than he's "getting too old for this shit" I think Jerry Gray and Danny Smith are likely to try to follow Williams out the door.

I like Blache, but something seems kind of fishy about that press release to me. It sounds like an interim move to act like the Redskins were prepared for Williams' departure.

True. Unless he gets the job in Jacksonville, Williams might just have to sit out the '08 season.
