Shanahan's meeting with Snyder lasted roughly 20 minutes.

I find it hard to defend any coach when they go 0-fer in this weak division. We were relatively healthy, we still don't know about the back ups...I didn't understand why Mike didn't bench more players that were struggling after we were eliminated....or how so many backups weren't prepared or ready to play.

 

[Henry]

wow, so Bruce is safe

Maybe he's actually the GM ...

It will be interesting to see how much of a role he has in the new hire.

Shanahan probably won't say much now, but it's commendable he's being given the opportunity to speak by the organization.

Zac Boyer ‏@ZacBoyer
Shanahan: "I would like to thank Dan for the opportunity to be here in a great organization. This is the best."

Grant Paulsen ‏@granthpaulsen
Mike Shanahan: "I'd like to thank Dan for the opportunity to be here. This is the best.. I'd also like to thank the players." #Redskins

Grant Paulsen ‏@granthpaulsen
Mike Shanahan's statement: "First off I'd like to thank the fans. I can't tell you how supportive this fan base is."

Zac Boyer ‏@ZacBoyer
Shanahan: "When we first came here, we knew we were in some tough situations with the salary cap and that we had to make tough decisions."

Zac Boyer ‏@ZacBoyer
Shanahan: "I thought over the first two years, though it was tough with five and six wins, the team was going in the right direction."

Grant Paulsen ‏@granthpaulsen
Mike Shanahan: "Going into the 3rd year, I felt very good. Over those 2, 3 years we did make some strides."

Grant Paulsen ‏@granthpaulsen
Shanahan: Cap hit prohibited him from improving defense going into 3rd season of his tenure. "Cap situations [made it] tough to have depth."

Zac Boyer ‏@ZacBoyer
Shanahan: "I enjoyed it."

Rich Tandler ‏@Rich_TandlerCSN
Short version of Shanny: "cap penalty, cap penalty, cap penalty".

Ok, which one of the mods just re-tweeted that pic on twitter???

ROFLMBO!

 

[tshile]

is Snyder the most failed owner in the NFL?

most teams have played in a super bowl in his tenure, most he has is 1 playoff win (which was a really bad win)

Lovero has been throwing those pictures around for a while, they're quite comical

 

[Henry]

maybe he BECOMES an actual GM? I dont see much of him actually already being one. But then again..who knows?

Yeah. I admit that my post was more prayer than actual speculation.

Put the crack pipe down dude. There isn't a word to describe how woefully untrue this statement is.

Zac Boyer ‏@ZacBoyer
Some have been told of their fates already - @ESPNRadio980 reported Kyle Shanahan, Jim Haslett and Matt LaFleur have been fired as well.

Zac Boyer ‏@ZacBoyer
The Redskins' assistant coaches will be meeting individually to find out their fates.

I just hope he's not the new and improved Vinny!

This scares me!

Told by an agent recently, if #Redskins put AJ Smith in charge of personnel, many head coach candidates will be scared off.

Breifly, the Redskins have won two playoff games since Synder bought the team. The win over Detriot was pretty solid.

And 18 teams have played in the SB during that span. Barely over half.

That said, our team has been pretty sucky during the Snyder era, hyperbole or no.

Snyder took over in 1999. Here's all the teams that have been in the super bowl since then:
Green bay, St Lous, Tennessee, Baltimore, New York Giants, New England, Tampa Bay, Oakland, Carolina, Philidelphia, Pittsburgh, Steattle, Indianapolis, Chicago, Arizona, New Orleans, San Francisco


That's 18 or the 32 teams.

Snyder, during that time, has had 6 playoff games. W against Detroit in 99, Loss against San Francisco in 99, Win against Tampa Bay in 2005, losses against Seattle in 2005, 2007, and 2012.

So, sorry, he's had 2 wins.

Which part is 'Woefully' untrue? My missing a win from 1999?

My saying most? is 18/32 not most? it's woefully untrue?

It's the ****ing truth. This team has been terrible since he took over, regardless of how much of it is his fault and how much isn't.

 

[Henry]

Denver amd Atlanta were 98 ...

El, I am putting this one in that long list of offhand Redskins-situation related tweets that are just thrown out there as "potential hypothetical speculation" and not in any way indicative of what may actually transpire.



At least that's what it looks like to me.



I sincerely hope so anyway-like you I am not fond of that idea at all.

If fans really think Snyder is going to bring in a 'football GM' and keep Bruce Allen, I think they are going to be disappointed. I just don't see it happening.
