How the Commanders reached the crossroads and what comes next

At this point, I can't imagine one person from the current Coaching staff remaining after the season - in any capacity. Show me one position group that is actually holding their own and I'll change my mind. Sure Sam is putting up yards, but that is only because of the sheer volume of attempts EB has him throwing.

RBs maybe, Ryan Kerrigan for sentimental reasons, but new HC has to be onboard

Read this earlier. Im just happy we reached the crossroads, because up until a few months ago I thought it was an eternal road through football hell. With Snyder there was no chance of ever sniffing a championship. Now there is a chance.


And things can change very quickly in the NFL. Look at what happened with Atlanta after taking Matt Ryan. Saints with Brees , goes on and on. It all starts with a good coaching staff and good QB

I think Ron Rivera is done coaching...like so many others under Snyder, he will leave here tarnished and stained, and probably wishing he had never taken this job. He may end up doing some type of media job, or just drift off into the sunset...but his coaching days are done.

The guy had to survive both cancer and the worst of the Snyder years of ownership. It would not surprise me if he retires from coaching.

as I have said before, Ron is a good man, seems like he's well respected. he's had four years and it hasn't worked. the team may be in worse shape than when he took it over. that's on him.

he will get to walk off in the sunset w/ another year of getting paid and that'll be it for him as a head coach in the NFL.

You really think he's done as HC? He is respected as a person, I don't know what people ever saw in him as a HC, but he's had two different stints of below mediocrity, save for the one good year he had when Carolina made the SB. He seems like a worse version of Jeff Fisher, because Jeff Fisher's teams were never HORRIBLE, they were just average. Ron in Washington except for one decent year (2020), has been borderline bad to horrible. I still think some other owner gives him one more shot because they will think that the three years under Dan Snyder doesn't count.....

He's going to need a good, long rest after what he's been through.

Really?

Doing what?

EB is too stubborn to make any changes in his system, so I'll guess that they must be building a Lego city.

Does Tress Way have a personal punting coach? Keep them.

The whole sleep deprivation thing makes sense. They did research with navy seals and showed that the more sleep deprivation training they went through the more mistakes they made but the longer they were sleep deprived the more confident they were they were doing things correctly. They basically were making grave mistakes in life and death situations but confident they were doing things right.

EB is so sleep deprived he doesn't even know he is screwing up.
