Interesting article.

Williams is not such a safe pick - - The Washington Times, America's Newspaper

looks like even the writers are getting bored.....

Not to rush you but come on Dan, make a choice so we can move on to complaining/critiquing the draft.....

Screw all those silly stats about coaches getting hired and fired. It doesn't matter when it comes to our situation. Who is the best guy to lead this team right now? Greg Williams is. But it's becoming very apparent that GW isn't going to be the next HC IMO. Otherwise what's the hold up? Perhaps GW wants to clean house on the offensive side of the ball and bring in his own people? Who knows.

We can call them silly stats all we want but the numbers dont lie. GW was a dud in Buffalo. If he hadnt been a Skins assistant and was being mentioned as the next HC most of the "geniuses" on this site would be screaming bloody murder.

But he was an assistant here in Washington...you can play the "what if" game all night long, fact is, he's here, the players like him, Gibbs supports him...get it done

His history and the history of coaches in his situation suggest he will not be successful.

Who will be then? I think his "situation" is great. An up and coming team, with a quarterback who's starting to get better. This isn't the NFL purgatory that is the Buffalo Bills.

I like JC but I'm but I'm not sold on the fact that he is our next francise QB at this point. You said he was getting better maybe in stats but his win loss colume is still not very good. He has shown sign but he was on a 4 game loosing streek when he was injured. It took a 2nd string QB to turn around our season. I'm hope we have an open compition for the starting QB in training camp.

It's coaching man, you gotta look at all the talent he had on buffalo and compare it to now. Comparing coaches stats are not like players stats, you cant just assess it so easily. Maybe, the players justy didnt buy into his system in buffalo, and they obviously do here, i bet if gw is the coach he would be successful, but if he's not i still want to see him stay here as Ass. HC D.

You didn't like Gibbs. Now you seem to be leaning against Williams. Who would you hire? Is there anything the Redskins have done that you have not voiced opposition to? I understand contrarianism but throw us a bone here. Sometimes I'm tempted to think that you represent some sort of fifth column inside this forum. Subversion from within.

I'm not against GW. History is.

And Ronald Reagan should have died in office. It didn't happen, either.

I may be wrong but when has Gibbs came out and said that he supports GW over any other head coach?
