Snyder Showing Improvement b/c of Gibbs?

[BleedBurgundy]

From MMQB by Peter King:

Meanwhile, I talked to Strahan on Saturday night and got no indication which way he was leaning. Human nature would say he can't make $4 million in four months anywhere but on the football field this fall, but I'm not sure this is a very normal situation. My guess is he'll play, but my personal preference would be to see him traded to a team that would pay him. Three years ago, this would have been a job for Dan Snyder, but working with Joe Gibbs has transformed Snyder into some sort of Fred MacMurray type from My Three Sons. You know, Mr. Responsible. This doesn't seem like a Redskins move now.


This got me thinking that maybe, if we don't go on to win a superbowl in Gibbs 2.0, that at least we could point to the maturation of Snyder as a kind of success under Gibbs. Winning a superbowl would be great but having Snyder actually adjust his spend first, ask questions later mentality might be more important to the health of the franchise, long term.
