Zorn: "He needed a break....I would put it as personal reasons."

Thanks - I have a feeling it will be Shanahan as well.

Not sure I'm following you with your question. Do you mean just on the forums from fans, or the internet in general? Either way, I've read articles in newspapers and I've heard it discussed on television as well. No matter where it's being discussed, there has been some form of drama created around the Redskins. Certainly it may appear to be more drama for 'skins since we 'skins fans keep up with our team more than other teams, but I live closer to Carolina Panther country than Redskins country, and haven't heard a word about any drama with the Panthers other than them just starting off very slowly.

Interesting. Let's over analyze this statement for the next three pages and see what we come up with...lol!

When all is said and done, I have a feeling it won't be...maybe because I'm hoping it won't be Shanahan (not as GM at least)

Re: Jerry Gray takes over Media Duties from Blache
 

I'm personally hoping that we will start a big win streak so that we can put all the speculation to rest.

It could just be he is tired of having to answer stupid questions. Maybe this will do some good for our defense and Gray's career.

God everything that is happening with this team seems like chaos.

Well that would be way to easy.

Re: Jerry Gray takes over Media Duties from Blache
 

Probably a move Blache welcomes if not suggested. There may be no need to read a great deal into it. Small changes taking place, can a bigger one be far away?

Well when people that can't swim get tossed into a pool and start drowning, they go into freakout mode.

Redskins seem to be an organization that can't get their shit together, tossed into a schedule where they seemingly can barely get wins...

Let freakout mode commence.

Could be worse, we could be the Titans or Cowboys.

Re: Jerry Gray takes over Media Duties from Blache
 

[quote=BigHairedAristocrat;604322]Honestly, I like Blache's personality and really enjoyed listening to him talk on Thursdays, so i'm hoping its option 4. Like, GMScud, i previously was hoping Grey would take over from Blache at some point, but i'm not so sure any more.

[B][I]All I know is that whoever is responsible for our defensive backs giving 15+ yard cushions on every play needs to be demoted or fired. [/I][/B]

As to option 3, its a worst-case scenario for me. As sick as I am of Zorn and as much as I want him out ASAP, the logical part of my brain knows our chances of attracting someone other than Gruden or Fassel after the seasons over deteriorate dramatically if Zorn's fired mid-season. I mean, why on Earth would a respectable HC come here if we fired our previous coach after somewhere between 19 and 22 games? IMO, the only way Snyder can convince Cowher (HC) and Shottenheimer (GM) (my #1 choice to replace Zorn/Cerrato) is to convince them that he's really changed. Firing Zorn midseason certainly wouldnt accomplish that goal. Remember, the only reason Zorn got the job was because no one else (other than Fassel) wanted it.[/quote]

It's all apart of the grand scheme of things....like your favorite fast food resturaunt watering down the syrupy soda to make it last longer. ;)

Re: Jerry Gray takes over Media Duties from Blache
 

Maybe Blache is just tired. He's got a pretty intense workload outside of just coaching with all these media requirements.

By the way, Smoot has stopped talking to the media as well

I know you get tired of the media Smoot. It's hard being you. ;)

But seriously, what's the real Smoot have to say to the media anyway? He got bumped out of the depth chart last week by Tryon ffs. If you're getting bumped out by a player with 1 year of experience and almost zero playing time, you need to be worrying more about your job security and less about the media.
