Bruce Allen is officially the worst longest-tenured GM who has been with the same team since 2010 (in all 4 major leagues).

24 GM's total, only 3 with losing records.

Bruce Allen, Redskins, .397 winning percentage, 2 playoff appearances no wins
Dayton Moore, Kansas City Royals, .468 winning percentage, 1 World Series title (2015)
Duke Tobin, Cincinnati Bengals, .490 winning percentage, 5 consecutive playoff berths (2011-2015)
Somebody has to be last.

This is so pathetic...less than .400 win percentage and here a decade. How in the world could this ever be sold to me as "ok" in my life time of Skins fandom? man...

With a damn good culture.

I wonder why Bruce kept Gruden though. He must have known his job was next on the totem pole, he could have bought himself 2 more years minimum with a new coaching staff last year, and no one in the NFL or us fans would have questioned letting Gruden go.

Just an odd thing for Bruce to do.

In his twisted mind, he probably thought Gruden would be the scapegoat.

Consider who the boss is and it ain't that twisted

When and if Allen's fired I wonder if Snyder has any fucking balls to come out of his hole and face the media, say something to the fans..

Getting worried...got to bet rid of BA now before all the good potential HC'S* are hired. The work is out...any good prospects don't want to come here with BA running the show.

I want to go back and read my 10th post for curiosities sake. The statistics feature has been disabled for a while. Any other way to go back and read all your own posts?

Also, welcome Harriet33! HTTR!

Re: Why moving on from Bruce Allen this year is pivotal to the future of the franchise.

I've seen the rumors about Bienemy and the Alex Smith connection, and I gotta say I'm warming up to the idea (though not with Smith as GM).

The Andy Reid coaching tree has been everything the Bill B. coaching tree hasn't. Not one of Bill B's former assistants has gone on to major success in the NFL. Reid has a pedigree of bringing in coaches who are good motivators and educators.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/sport...t-influential/

All this ignores the fact the next GM will be the most crucial step we will take. If Dan fails on that we will be doomed no matter who the coach is.

And none of this matters as long as Bruce is still here. HE NEEDS to GO!

Who from the Redskins is putting out feelers for the HC?
