News 4 Washington had Joe Theisman on and he said it's the first thing the New Ownership group should do to bring back the fans

This is a great day. People don't agree on much but everyone agrees DS sucks.

He can change the name (it wont be back to Redskins) but no way can the colors change. Its the only thread of continuity the organization and fans have left.

Yea if they complete erase the colors and basically do away with any of the history of the team regarding Redskins then might as well be an expansion team … at that point I won’t care ..Glad Snyder is gone though .. maybe the Nfl wants a complete erase from the Redskin legacy .. but I’m not gonna be a fan of a team that has no connection at all with the Past glory years .. and If they are gonna change it all up then do it now .. Didn’t I read Harris say he was not gonna change colors ?? Hell I wouldn’t be surprised if they moved the team and erase all mentions of Refskins and blur out any image of the logo as so not to offend someone …

Why would a guy who grew up in Chevy Chase change the colors? This is just not going to happen. Besides, Snyder already changed the colors w/ the god awful all blacks and knockoff Gamecock uniforms. I'm thinking that low rent shit ( along w/ Commanders) is gone cause that ain't us.

Seems like the new group is trying to get rid of the stench of Snyder. If they are saying that " it's on the table" then you can be sure that it is going to happen.

He'd be stupid to change the colors.

Joyous day folks. Cheers to the hope I have for the future

Update: Magic Johnson, the new Washington #Commanders minority owner, said the team will consider a name change after this season.

Glad they are listening to the fans…they can’t go back to Redskins but something indian related or pays homage to the previous name and logo would be outstanding.

No shot they got back to an Indian theme bro. Unfortunately those days are long gone. Honestly who knows what they will do but I think it’s ridiculous to change the name 3 times in a span of 4 years. Like wtf

I can not believe this is happening. And to top it all off the new ownership may trash Commanders. Am I dreaming?

My guess is the name stays but they’ll look to revamp the logo and uniforms

So the new ownership mentions a name change, but doesn't mention the colors/uniforms and your guess is they'll change the uniforms???? I'd like to play poker with you. Or in other words - hey our customers hate X, but like Y so lets change Y.

Much cheaper and easier to revamp the uniforms vs a total rebrand. Could be a solid way to meet in the middle on all of this. Just my speculation. It’s not like the uniforms were well received either.

In the end I could really care less about what the team is called. Just win.

^ This. The name will likely never be what we all want so why abandon the team colors? Reconfig the design but burgundy and gold are gospel and should not ever be ditched.

To avoid controversy The D.C. Football Lakers colors will be purple and gold.

Not sure the Vikings would appreciate that. And the ant there a 5 year wait period between rebranding? I’d bet the owners/league would waive it as a “let’s wash the stink of Snyder” effort.

Keep the colors. Lose the Steelers and Gamecocks unis. Go with Wolves or Redwolves. Fight any trademark issues. Let’s go.
