Possible move on Garrett?

Redskins to Meet With Jim Schwartz - Redskins Insider

-Possible theory on the Schwartz interview-

What about this...in Snyder's skewed thinking that to keep continuity on the team that we hire Schwartz as Def-Coor, and then hire Jason Garrett away from the Cowboys as head coach, thus dealing a blow to the most hated Cowboys. The hiring of Schwartz in Snyder's twisted thinking would maintain the continuity of the defense by having a coordinator in the same mold as Gregg Williams, thus backing his statements at the Gibbs resignation conference.

Just a thought...and a stretch at that...but I thought that since the first person was from a team that just got eliminated that the Skins were looking at active playoff coaches for potential interviews.

That and it's weird that they are interviewing someone that essentially is Gregg Williams Lite when the original is in the building.

I still can't figure out why Schwartz would be interested in a lateral move when he's a viable head coaching candidate in Baltimore, Miami, and Atlanta.

Just a guess but I think you can scratch Schwartz off the Baltimore and Miami list.

And who in there right mind would take Atlanta?

That seems like a lot of conjecture and little substance. I've seen similar theories begin here on the warpath...

This is JLC's theory or yours? I didn't see it on Insider

It's definitely the poster's threory. JLC said all indications were that this was a HC interview with Schwartz.

You can't tell me that this wouldn't be a Snyder type of move. Especially since any hire that is not Gregg Williams means that he is going to hit the road. If he leaves that would open the volitility gates and unfortunately it looks as if its going that way.

SmootSmack · 01-10-2008, 11:04 PM

I think we're greatly exaggerating the situation here. Hiring Schwartz or any other outsider doesn't automatically mean Armageddon. The way some people are talking a swarm of locusts is about to descend upon FedExField.

Hail to that. People are way too amped up over this.

My theory is that GW already has the nod and interviewing all others is just paying lip service to the process. don't forget the rooney rule.

fair enough, but I think fans have earned a right to be VERY skeptical of regime change...so far, so bad...

as much as i don't think Greg Williams is head coach material, he seems to be the best choice for the skins. continuity means everything in today's nfl. as for Schwartz, nothing has been confirmed. i really don't see the reasoning behind it. unless Williams would like him as HIS defensive coordinator

Jason Garrett=Norv 2.0

Sorry, had to be done.

Do you have proof?

Skinny Tee · 01-10-2008, 11:30 PM

I don't want Garrett so much as I don't want him back on the Cowboys. I think Romo is a product of his system and Owens ability.
