BREAKING NEWS: Cerrato resigns (Bruce Allen hired as VP/GM) - merged

Is there any possibility Jim Zorn stays? With Allen, there seems to have been a track record of finding players to fit the WCO system that belonged to Gruden. Just because we now have Allen as our VPFO/GM does it necessarily mean its either Gruden or Shanahan?

I'm asking because I'm in slight favor of seeing what year 3 with Zorn-Campbell looks like before we switch HC and offensive schemes again.

If it is Shanahan that comes to town, there have been a few remarks about it being Cerrato 2.0; Allen being Snyder's puppet. This is assuming Shanahan won't have full control and that Snyder is still playing the way he wants to, and not giving autonomy to his HC-GM partnership. I can't wait for us to play spoilers these last three weeks, but am itching for answers to our team's direction.

I am actually impressed with Dan Snyder. How about that? To me, Snyder sounds like he has decided to step back and allow a GM to run the team.

I do hope they wait until the end of the season to name a new coach. It'd be unnecessary to do this right now. There are only three more weeks left in the season.

Yes that seems to be the case. Ladies and gents the Redskins have their first true 'GM' under Snyder.

I think you can tell there's a true element of trust that Snyder has with Allen.

Wish we could end the thread on this note.

You have the power!

How the hell are people complaining? We just got rid of Vinny Cerrato. This day should be declared a holiday. Kids should be let out of school, shops should close, and people should come home from work.

Anyone else think that Allen's voice sounded very similar to Gruden's? Kinda spooky.

You have the power!

Because people like to complain for the sake of complaining and pull stuff out of their asses and say they are facts.

He's got no another choice but to do that if he wants to attract coaches.

Snyder made the comment that Allen's decision will be final. Good first step.

Personal opinion--
Zorn will impress Allen - winning these next 2 NFC East battles, and will be asked to stay, minus playcalling. Zorn will not give up this HC job, and will keep Campbell. Allen will round out the FO with "football people". Blache will retire.

From there who knows.
