Cowher Talking to Skins about Job in '08?
FanNation | Truth&Rumors | Cowher secretly planning 2008 return
Supposedly, we're one of three teams he or his "people" have contacted regarding potential opennings in 2008. |

Re: Cowher Talking to Skins about Job in '08?
He'd be stupid not to contact the Redskins. Gibbs won't be here forever (sad to say) and he'll get paid here and get whatever he wants.
That said, why does this keep being brought up every few months?

Re: Cowher Talking to Skins about Job in '08?
when he retired there was talk of him taking over after gibbs. I would be happy for this to happen except for the fact that we already have two cordinators that could be coaches and there is no reason to bring in another system. GW should be coach after gibbs as long as he can put up a good defense these next couple years. Saunders and GW would be pissed off. GW would get a million dollar bonus though. This is just a rumor right now. No need to take any substance out of it but the skins will be of talk when he comes back. Danny boy will beat out any offers so why wouldn't the skins be a front runner?

That being said, my gut tells me Williams won't wait for Gibbs to finish his last year, and another team makes Williams forget about the $1MM clause in his contract. Gregg Blache will eventually take over the defense. |

We'll be able to keep GW if we want to. But we might not want to. He didn't do well in buffalo and if the defense is in the bottom half of the league again, i don't see snyder passing up on an opportunity to get a coach liek cowher. Also, if we want cowher we will get him. Its up to Snyder. |

Re: Cowher Talking to Skins about Job in '08?
I heard very similar speculation months ago. It's an interesting thought. Gibbs has 2 seasons at best left in him, so why not? Cowher is what, 48? That's almost 20 years younger than Joe. And his style fits a Joe Gibbs footprint. Discipline, character, etc, etc. If it happens we'll probably get laughed at for "bribing" G.Williams by offering him $1M if we didn't make him Gibbs' successor and then choosing someone else.

Re: Cowher Talking to Skins about Job in '08?
I like the idea of Cowher as HC and Gibbs doing some GM work.

Re: Cowher Talking to Skins about Job in '08?
Blache could draw some serious interest as a head coach very soon.

Re: Cowher Talking to Skins about Job in '08?
Blache very nearly became head coach of the 49ers a few years ago, before they stunned everyone and hired Dennis Erickson.
I'd love to see, over the next two years, guys like Earnest Byner and Kirk Olivadotti take on a bigger role with the team coordinating the offense and defense and emerge as an in-house candidate to be head coach. That's something that's missing I think from Gibbs' legacy, a homegrown coaching tree.
