I think Al Saunders is going to be let go regardless of who the head coach is. I haven't heard any players talking about how they wanted to keep him and to be quite honest I would be shocked if the new coach is picked is no Mora or Williams
From an interview with JC...
Jason Reid chatted up Jason Campbell and filed this item:
Quarterback Jason Campbell is among many Redskins players eager to learn who will be the team's next head coach. If the job goes to assistant head coach-defense Gregg Williams, Campbell hopes Williams will retain the offensive coaching staff.
"I feel we have great continuity on our team and our staff," Campbell said.
Campbell is especially supportive of play caller Al Saunders. The team's associate head coach-offense, Saunders "is a great coach," Campbell said. "He does a good job with the things that we do. We're improving in a lot of areas and coming a long ways ... as far as offensively. It's an opportunity for us to continue to grow, but it all comes down to who's the head coach."
Although Campbell still is rehabilitating after dislocating his left kneecap and spraining his medial collateral ligament Dec. 6 against the Chicago Bears, he said he's making good progress and his knee should be at full strength soon.
"I'm 85 to 90 percent," he said. "At the same time, you still have to continue to rehab until you get all the strength back. You don't want to go home for the break and not be fully recovered."
