Thank you for your expanation. I seem to be up to speed now.
Fassel was 58-53-1 with three PO appearances, 1 trip to SB, with a lot of experience against NFCE teams, fired from previous job at raisens in balmer.
Mooch was 75-71, 60-43 with 49ers, and 15-28 with the Lions, and four PO appearances, no trips to SB.
LDS wants an experienced former HC, and Fassel was nearly the man four years ago, until HOF Coach Gibbs signed on for Gibbs 2.0.
LDS nearly hired Fassel a week ago, but not for the fan rebellion, and I mean, a total melt-down. B&G fans seem to overwhelmingly hate Fassel.
The new coaching staff is designed for either front-runner, and our poll favors Mooch. Many say the new coaching staff consists of Fassel's hand picked favs, but JLC's blog cites they are all in Mooch's cell phone fav five as well. HailRedskins.com forum feels it's Mooch.
Of course, the assistant coaches on the Patriots and G-nomes are to be interviewed first before an announcement is made. A mere formality imho.

One other thing. Besides the coaches hired, fired, let go, or interviewed most of this info is hear say. The front office has been mums the entire time and things have jumped from one rumor to the next to the next etc... So a bunch of this information you are reading is speculation unless it is a done deal. This lack of information is what has driven people nuts. Snyder has been called every name in the book and some that are not even in a book.

Not sure why they didn't offer Byner the same extension they offered to other coaches. I think the other coaches have signed 3 year extensions.
Well, the running game hasn't exactly taken off like gang-busters...I mean they had a few bright spots and there was the issue with the line being banged-up all season which never helps...I guess they figured Byner had something to do with the lack of production and decided to look elsewhere.

Also, Scott Campbell got promoted to Director of Player Personnel so he's going to be very instrumental in the shaping of the roster.

Before Snyder either grows old and croaks or sells the team (if he ever decides to one day). Cerrato will end up being HC at some point in time.
Bank on it.

Hey dude it was a good thing that you didn't look at the news or you would have been mad as heck the whole time you were on the island.
Danny boy has lost his fricking mind man, I'm not upset at him letting Al go ,but Gregg too makes me real mad. And bringing in that Fassal is really going to put us in deep poo next year when we could have made a real shot at winning the NC east.
So now cool off and think about all of those great sites you saw on the island because if you think about Danny boy and his flunky Vinny C too much you'll just be as angry as the rest of us.

Nail on the head right here.
Skins fans only have themselves to blame for this self induced hysteria.
Too much speculation, very little facts, and people have absolutely run wild with every rumor or whisper that has come across this site.

Matty,
I agree with you about 90%...I still think part of the responsibility falls on the team and it's PR...most of the rumors didn't come from fans...they came from the press, and that was primarily due to the fact that for some reason Dan and Vinnie insisted on a cloak of secrecy that rivaled the Manhattan Project in World War II. No other team in the league has been as quiet and trivial as they have been regarding who they were interviewing, and which direction they were headed. So the press had to speculate and track the flight path of Redskins 1 to figure out what was going on. Now the hysterical reactions the fans had to this information did not help matters either. I say the blame should fall 70% team, 30% fans.
