Also, if Bruce is paying guys to defend him on message boards now I want in. My resume and ability to type better speaks for itself. Bring me in Bruce, you won't regret it!

Yea, not only that, you can even do it in a sufficiently ambiguous way so that it could be a compliment, but it really isn't. For example:

-- It's really hard to overstate what Bruce Allen has meant to this franchise.

-- Bruce, with all of his talent, should go far.

-- Bruce's contributions may be unique throughout the league.

-- Bruce has really made a name for himself among the agents and players throughout the NFL.

-- Bruce Allen's name, season after season, as on the tip of the tongue of every die hard Redskins fan.

You get the idea. Endless possibilities to (a) make money, and (b) speak the truth.

Brilliant post! Bruce should hire you to lead his misinformation campaign.

I'd take the job only out of allegiance to this crowd, and I would promise more quotes like, "Bruce's longevity in the league is simply astounding" to drive home the point. Really, the possibilities are endless.

I remember when Spurrier was the 49ers back up QB and their punter. That was a while ago.

That's exactly the kind of irrefutable evidence I needed to convince me.

Thanks Bruce!

P.S. I'm still available for hire if you need me. I'll sell my account too, 50 large should do it.

Sorry for the Redskins organization, there will be near zero fans left if DS doesn't change his approach of bringing in useful idiots to manage the Skins.

If Allen is still here at the start of the year, the Skins might as well start planning to move to England.

I'll just leave this here for those still not convinced Bruce is a failure

Allen was hired late in the 2009 season, saying: “I like urgency. I like doing things sooner than later.” Starting with the next fall, the Redskins have a 62-94-1 regular season record under Allen, their .398 winning percentage the fifth worst in the NFL over that span. They also have the NFL’s fifth-worst point differential (minus-611) since 2010. Only the Oakland Raiders (62-95), Tampa Bay Buccaneers (58-99), Jacksonville Jaguars (49-108) and Cleveland Browns (42-114-1) have worse records and point differentials over that span. All four of those teams have more wins in 2019, too.

The Redskins have finished over .500 three times in Allen’s 10 seasons, with just one campaign, 2012, producing 10 wins or more. Washington has just two playoff appearances over the past decade, both of which ended with losses in the wild-card round. Three-fourths of the league’s teams, 24 of 32, have at least one playoff win since 2010, and only five franchises other than Washington have two or fewer playoff appearances.

Great...I have been watching a lot of bad football for over a decade.

[Ruhskins]

For a team that LOVES to "win in the offseason" and is always looking for a PR win, I don't know how they do not see the potential of a Bruce Allen firing as a way to create buzz around the team and have a PR win with the fans.

Hell, I bet if he were to be fired tomorrow, attendance at the next game would increase just by that action alone.

[rocnrik]

we can’t go into next year with Haskins as our only option ...
