When his bosses ( who are paying you a lot of money ) want something done in the end he is going to go along. It's part of the territory working for Dan. He can object, he probably did but he does not sign the checks.

Reminds me of when Dan came in the draft room and took Haskins. What are the coaches and scouts going to do?

It's one thing for a coach or assistant to object in a draft. It is different for the president of the organization. I resigned as general manager of a company because the owner was out of line on holiday pay. I think if Wright and Rivera stood up to Dan or Tanya on ST they would have won, or at least gotten it handled better. That's what changing the organization means for the WFT.

Totally agree.

It was clearly another boneheaded Snyder led move, 100%. For all we know JW stood on the table and whole heartedly objected, but in the end the final say goes to the owner. Was JW supposed to quit over this?

The picture of DS in his hoodie at the ST ceremony just makes me want punch that little fuck in the face.

He has $$ but his legacy will always be tarnished. He has to be one of the least respected owners in all pro sports..

Ron was the best hire on the table at that time … this is deeper than the coach .
He will get another year and hopefully he can right this ship but truth is I’m not sure any coach could win in DC culture.
