Byner says goodbye to DC.

I wish good luck to him elsewhere, he did a great job while he was here with Portis and Betts. It's sad to see some things end like this but it's the nature of the business.

Yeah there's gotta be more to this story. I mean seriously, you don't treat a real good coach this way. Maybe the RBs complained about something alot, maybe he beat the s#!t out of DS at racquetball, maybe he was suspected of being the mysterious 'anonymous team source' by the front office. who's to say, I just cant imagine doing this to what appears to be a great man and coach. There has to be more to this story, and well probably never ever know for sure.

Well, I think we all think he was a great coach, and Gotta say he did a good job with Betts, although his fumbling issues were in the limelight constantly. All that being said, I'm not so sure another RB coach couldn't produce the same if not better numbers.
I am the type of person that appreciates dedication and devotion to a team, and Byner loved us, and I loved Byner. He will be missed here. I didn't think we would need to find another RB coach, and I am not happy by how it went down, but I'm sure we will land on our feet with this.
But still, I wish him the best.

I can't comprehend how someone like DS who claims to have been a huge Redskins fan growing up, treat Byner this low. They could have treated this with more dignity especially with his story as a player and coach for the skins. I know people will say "it's business", to me that's BS. This is our corporate America society attitude and I hate it.

I really don't get why they let him go. Does anyone have any real reasons for this? I don't think it's because Zorn wanted to surround himself with friends, there has to be something else. He did not do a bad job at all. It's not right how we treated him.

Ask Bobby Mitchell - - who had a longer and far more distinguished career on the field for the Redskins than did Earnest Byner - - about how things "happen" in the Skins FO.

It is a long and sordid tale...

But again, we want to blame Dan and Vinny for this but isn't Joe culpable too?　　He was the guy calling the shots on the coaching hires and he didn't seem to stick his neck out for Ernest in 05.

This offseason the mantra was continuity, particularily with the coaches, yet again, it doesn't seem like anyone from the top down was pleeding Byner's case.

So what? Well maybe they just don't think he's that good. I mean, obviously right? If they are wrong about that, well, they are wrong, wouldn't be the first time, but you can't fault the guys for trying to field the best coaching staff they feel is possible.

Just because Byner is a nice "classy" guy doesn't mean he gets to keep his job if they think there's a better guy out there.

The "process" strikes again. I sware, one day I'm going to eliminate that word from the english language. That way DS will have to come up with another excuse as to why he treats people like shit and drags them through 12 hour interviews due to his indecisiveness as the De-Facto GM.

There isn't anything to wonder about with Earnest Byner. His work speaks for itself with the results he has had, and the person that he is speaks for itself as well. As far as Dan Snyder offering a contract to Byner and then pulling it back when he came in to sign it, well, that speaks for itself too.

Don't be so quick to assume things. There are two sides to every story, that's all I'm going to say.
