GatorEye Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2298365 Buried in this article is something I haven't seen reported before: After the season, Gibbs talked defensive coordinator Gregg Williams into staying instead of taking a head coaching job on an other team. Williams received a three-year, $7.8 million deal. His deal, the most lucrative ever for an assistant coach, includes a $1 million bonus if he is not named the Washington head coach when Gibbs retires. First off that would be great news if true, but doesn't that violate the league's rules about interviewing minority candidates first. Personally I'm all for it and I'm sure that was a key reason why his family likes DC so much. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedDevil Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 I hope so... I want him to stay forever. Let Gibbs pour all his knowledge into him and then let him take over... Now thats what you call a Dynasty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenaa Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 This has been widely reported and discussed in numerous other threads. It is true. Don't know if it means he's the defacto next HC, but it appears to be the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevzy88va Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Gregg is a catch as we all have seen from the first game we played with him coaching our Defense. I would love to see him step in and take the job when Gibbs retires, but i say we lay back and enjoy the last years we have with Joe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novaskin Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 Williams is the next head coach for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCNightHawk Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 I think Williams will be the next head coach. It is great to know that we have a long term future for this team, even after Gibbs is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
