DS is going to say "Man, I must be the problem so I'll just go out and sell the team." That aint going to happen. As long as this team is making money then all the powers that be will be content. It's not like the fans are going to rally together and force DS to sell the team unless he's losing money over several yrs not just one. and If I'm correct we would find DS moving the team saying "the market is weak in DC."

Can any of the other owners force DS out? I doubt it. So now you know your stuck with DS. accept it. move on.

The only thing fans can hope for is DS finally steps back and gets good football people to run the show and just enjoy the games on Sun. Unfortunatly that would mean he would have to admit he's not as good as he thinks he is and that might not happen either.
I believe most of the owners are Snyder family.

I tell you who had a great point during an interview, Phillip Daniels. Following the game he said that the Giants were looking up at the rest of the NFC East the year they won the Super Bowl. Ironically it was the win against the Redskins that jumped started the whole roll.

Our best chance would probably be to follow that model set by the Giants of being the worst regular season Skins team since 2006, but parlaying a weak schedule into 9 wins or so, and around playoff time, finding out that the 14 consecutive games that each player on the line has played with each other yields a pretty darn good unit. All of a sudden, Portis becomes a factor in the playoffs.

That would be a best case scenario. It's realistic, but we're going to have to get really, really lucky. And the defense is going to have to look like a defense at some point.

Hey, I'm not dumb or a hard headed Republican. He's had his chance. I was willing to give him that but it's clear that it's not working. Time to change gears.

THAT'S IT! It's the damn hard- headed Republican's fault!

You know it's bad when Matty is ripping on Snyder.

Not really ripping as much as trying to say a different approach is needed.

Re: Lavar's twitter

What if it's not Snyder anymore as much as it is Vinny and Zorn? What if Snyder is just the guy who gives a little input like, "hey I'm down for the AH signing, just tell me how much to put on the check" and it's Vinny saying, "I've analyzed the roster and I think we need a massive dt to free up space for our lb's and d-line." Then what? I think Zorn is probably as good as gone after the season but what if it's Vinny making all the bad personnel decisions, aka giving Hall 56 mil and making an impulse trade for Jason Taylor? Granted I don't think it's gotten to the point where Hall is completely not worth it yet but he's certainly headed down the wrong path.

I would be fine with Snyder running the franchise if it turned out the problem was just Vinny making bad personnel decisions and Zorn's bad coaching. That's just me though.

Re: Lavar's twitter

LaVar is starting the burgundy revolution, huh? The only way fans coming to FedEx Field will matter is if they come unified, demanding that Snyder sell the team. Could you imagine the press on that?

Snyder doesn't have to sell the team. Just make himself a silent partner in the operations of the front office/personnel side.

I actually don't mind Snyder being the owner of the team...it's the lack of knowledgable front office football guys that bothers me so much.
