ESPN just announced... man I was rooting for him this year too... farewell coach Gibbs.

Who will be Snyder's next "big splash?"

Damn! I read it as the wrong Gibbs.

Yeah that is sad. Too bad he couldn't do anything in the playoffs the year he retired.

I know Cowher said he wanted another year off, but that was when the Falcons tried to contact him.

This is a MUCH different situation with an up-and-coming and talented team in an extremely competitive division. Plus it's one the NFL's premier franchises in one of the biggest markets.

I could see the Skins going after Jason Garrett just to tick the Cowgirls off.

I remember a few years ago that Greg Williams was supposed to be the successor to Gibbs and that's why they made him the highest paid DC in the league. Maybe thing's have changed.

Yep, he is next up.

"The Redskins said in a statement that Gibbs will remain part of the Redskins family and serve as a special adviser to owner Dan Snyder."

"The Redskins will begin a search for a new coach immediately. Among the certain candidates are two former head coaches on Gibbs' staff, Gregg Williams and Al Saunders"

"Defensive coach Gregg Williams gets a $1 million bonus if he's passed up for the head job, so he's the early favorite to replace Gibbs."

Al Saunders just can't catch a break.
