Its funny you mention Gregg Williams. I had kind of forgotten he was the DC now with the Rams. I still think not hiring him as head coach after Gibbs is one of the top 5 Snyder mistakes of all time.

Not only did Snyder pass him over. He hired JIM ZORN instead. Unfreakingbelievable.

Yea I liked Williams...interesting that many believed he has a clause in his contract to be the next HC that Snyder didn't honor. I really like Zorn as a person, amazing how well he started out...to bad it quickly went downhill.

That's because the Danny only cares about offense. Sean might have changed that about him, if he had lived.

Yep and if Sean didn't, I believe he wounldn't have resigned here! He loved Williams...and my bet is he would have followed him.

Quite possibly set the franchise back a decade in the process.

lol. For the like the third time in five years. I think that adds up to Snyder having set us back 30 years.

I still think this team is OK and a better group than we had last year. Yeah we could go 0-4 but it just doesn't feel as hopeless to me this year as it did in 2014. I'm hoping they just keep battling. Tune out all of the BS and start learning how to win games.

I am more worried about the Rams than I am the Eagles and Giants. There is just no way we go 0-4. 1-3 at the worst, IMO.

Well, some of us don't have another 30 for Danny to keep playing Madden with our team.

I did not phrase that well - I agree that we're a better unit than last season - we're on the right track, we're just not a good team yet - we could go 0-4 - IMO, that is not indicative of the progress that has been made - my hope is that this franchise makes it through this season with this HC and QB no matter how many wins we have - we may not have this HC or QB here next season but they should be evaluated like every player and coach, based on their performance over the whole season, not just on the opening 5 or 6 games

now, that could change - if it's apparent that any player or coach are not doing their jobs, then they should be let go

I'm just saying it's going to take more than 1 season for this team to become a good team and everyone deserves a shot at showing they should be here in 2016 and beyond - It's just my opinion that Jay Gruden and Kirk Cousins will not be here in 2016



this owner does not have a clue - cannot believe he would approach Gibbs - that is beyond idiotic

we could go 3-1 - let's face it any team can win on "any given Sunday" - we're getting there and there are some good players here - I like what we've seen from certain parts ... but there's a reason that so many, with absolutely no agenda at all, are not seeing this team as having much more than 4 to 6 wins - I'd be be real happy with 6-8 ...

I'm fine with Kirk and Jay being given a chance to showcase what they've go - I just don't think it's going to be good enough

it would be neat to win a couple of games & get the pressure off everyone - because this owner is crazy
