Bruce Allen is the worst choice. So literally anyone that isn't him makes things better. I'll be excited asf if they fire his rudy poo candy ass.

We thought Vinny was the worst, turns out that was wrong. So I'm not holding my breath on the idea that whoever comes next will be an improvement.

Also Snyder needs to learn to keep his hands off player personnel matters. How someone smart enough to be a billionaire can't realize he is a big part of the problem is beyond me.

Getting another Redskins-linked executive like Louis Riddick would seem just to be another Yes man for Snyder. Not an improvement

As we all have said on here, until POS Danny boy lets go and allows a GM to take FULL control, shit will not matter

Shanahan's contract stated that he (Shanahan) had full control of all football personnel matters, yet Snyder and Smithers still managed to undermine his authority. And Shanny is no shrinking violet.

Apparently, Snyder can't be controlled - no matter what. Nevertheless, the illogical part of my mind still clings to faint hope that if Smithers, Snyder's co-conspirator, is fired and a HC/GM with contractual full authority is hired, then we have a puncher's chance of knocking out the many problems we have now.

The logical part of my brain says "Nah, we're screwed as long as Snyder owns the team".

Look at the way he commands this scene while wearing a classic Canadian tuxedo:

He can lead my franchise any day.

Supposedly Allen is getting fired tomorrow and his replacement is already in place, which would indicate it’s an in house replacement.

I’d be happy with Schaffer as team president and Kyle Smith as GM.

But this would make compliance with the rooney rule difficult, unless Doug Williams got a “token interview,” which would be rather disgraceful.

That's always been the rumor but I don't think it's ever been confirmed

90% Of Redskins media on Twitter is saying Bruce is a goner... Usually when there is that much smoke it's legit
