Coaches like Williams will inevitably overstay their welcomes. In 2002, the Raiders hired Bill Callahan for continuity purposes with an old team, and the Raiders won the AFC and played in the super bowl.
In 2003, the age caught up to the team, Callahan was ill-equipped mentally to deal with such failure, and blew up on the team.
Gregg Williams may have infinitely more football knowledge than Jim Fassel, but if the Redskins do hire Fassel, how can we be so sure that Williams would have been the better choice. If the Redskins hire Williams, how can we be sure that Fassel wouldn't have been the better choice?

For Redskins fans, the other choice is always the better choice
Now as to the first part of your post, maybe it is a matter of Fossil being less of a disciplinarian that gives him the alleged advantage.
I don't know. I just want to hire someone and move on to reaffirming my case for Aqib Talib (or maybe Cason) with our first pick
