I think this was pretty much a consensus by the sports media, even those outlets that are not controlled by Snyder. Yes, Snyder may have some influence, but many saw his change of title (promotion?) to Exec VP as a sign that he would be the one in charge. But Snyder is not at the level of Jerry Jones, meddling in everything, nor do I think he's at the level of getting involved as he was prior to Gibbs coming to town.

You may be right, but we're both guessing anyway. We don't know that he doesn't actually 'meddle' more than Jones, cause DS doesn't speak to the media, whereas JJ talks about everything.

My point is not to accuse him of meddling, though that shoe has seemed to fit in the past, rather I think it's naive to think that his influence over Vinny has to come through on virtually all major decisions. He's VC's boss & friend, so e.g., it's logical that drafting 2 wr's & a te in the 2nd rnd. appears to be influenced by DS, given his history of wanting a star wr. Not to mention the reported trade offer for ocho cinco. I can't believe that's solely Vinny making that decision.

off the subject but with the Ravens Ed Reed. And the Eagles Samuels and Dawkins. I can't help but wonder how much better we would have been had we still had S.Taylor. I know one man can't so it all but a guy like that can be a game changer. I know it's obvious but worth stating. We lost our intiminator.

ST played D and our problem this year was O.

ST would have made a HUGE difference. He was our best playmaker on "D".

Just having Sean Taylor would have allowed our other bomb playmaker (Landry) to play his natural song safety position and blow some people up.

Yes, and if he were here, he would consume opponents with fireballs from his eyes and bolts of lightening from his arse.

thanks 53. The point I was trying to make was we had a elite D in the making with him which would put a little less pressure on O. So FO was on the right track in some ways that we are not considering. He was a huge loss. Obviously
