It’s that time of year again. The Super Bowl interrupts post-holiday diets, New Year’s resolutions begin to fade, and Dan Snyder goes on his annual power-trip trying to convince the rest of the NFL and his Redskins’ poor, unfortunate fanbase that he’s not merely a competent owner, but a brilliant one. Yes, the past 15 years have been pretty trying for Skins fans, and Dan Snyder apparently likes it that way. He’s fired Gregg Williams, the players’ choice to take over for retired legend Joe Gibbs and the man who offered the most stability and consistency — two things the franchise has sorely missed over the past decade.

So with the popular frontrunner out of the running, plenty of questions persist: Why hasn’t Snyder interviewed former Redskin great Russ Grimm, a promising assistant with the Cardinals? Has anyone thought of hiring an experienced, proven General Manager to help steer the search? What the hell prompted Snyder to interview Jim Fassel of all people? It appears now that the team will wait until after the Super Bowl to interview Giants defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo, as well as Patriots offensive wunderkind Josh McDaniels, who both looks and is five years younger than Todd Collins. Colts assistant coach Ron Meeks has returned for a second interview, while the latest story has Snyder courting former Detroit and San Francisco boss Steve Mariucci.

Once again, nothing looks likely to be decided until next week, meaning that current Redskin position coaches are to continue scouting and personnel work while they wait to find out whether or not the team plans to fire them. Sounds like a great work environment, right?

Let’s hear your thoughts: Who do you want to be the next Redskins coach?
