Zorn is the guy

JLC reports that it's Zorn. I'm sitting here just dumbfounded. We gave up
Gregg Williams so that JIM ZORN could be coach? We didn't jump an offer to
Spags so that JIM ZORN could be coach? Russ Grimm didn't deserve even an
interview, but JIM ZORN does? Oh gawd. Kill me now. Make it quick.

This has Vinny written all over it. Snyder and Vinny are convinced of making
the Redskins the 49ers West Coast offense no matter who it is or what it takes.
The problem with Vinny is, how did he expect to do it in the late '90's with
Frank Drunkenmiller? Now, how do they expect to do it with Jason Campbell?
It's a miss- mash hierarchy that experiments more than Jekyll with Hyde. The only
correct component to this scheme is Chris Cooley.

Here's something...

Guys who were previously QB Coaches for Mike Holmgren that went
directly from there to being a Head Coach....

Steve Mariucci
Andy Reid
John Gruden
Marty Mornhinweg

Hmmm, two super bowls ... one loss (Reid), one win with another guy's
players. Mariucci and Mornhinweg were misses, though Mooch did win in SF.
It looks like a push to me. I'd still rather have Gregg Williams.

I think if Williams was hired it would be a one year thing And i think
Snyder is trying to get away from the big name coaches or the expected
names which 99 percent of redskins fans want.

Fassell would have been a good hire for about 5 yrs Fassell has won in the
NFC east so he does no how to win People say his players quit on him his
last year

Well the players almost quit on Gibbs last yr 06 up to that point Gibbs had
basically been letting all all the meetings and stuff be run by Williams and
Saunders Gibbs took back Reigns after that areticle came out and thew skins
floundered to a 2-3 finish.

There were reports that the players were ready top quit on gibbs this year
also. till the incedent If thats a reason to retain Williams then its not a
very good one

I don't mind Jim Zorn That's because I don't know him. Andy Reid I think was once promoted from QB coach to Head Coach, too. The problem in Washington will never be its coach. Or its players. The problem starts before that. And the problem I see with Redskin fans is that the
