Commanders Postgame 642 on direct tv, Commanders fans going nuts;

[ArmyCowboy]

Snyder runs off coaches that are worth a flip, the best coach he ever hired was Marty Shottenheimer who took a dreadful team that started 0-5 and finished 8-8 with them, he fired him after the season for the "sexy" choice of Steve Spurrior.

So he inherited Norv Turner, he lasted a season and a half under Snyder, including Washington's lone playoff apperance since 1992 at the time.

Interim Terry Robeski finished up the 2000 season.

Marty Shottenheimer came into a disaster zone and was coach of the year material but Snyder fired anyhow.

Spurrior had two stinker seasons and resigned.

Gibbs got out of his racing car and bruised his ego and legacy with a medicore second tour and that he never really committed to.

Jim Zorn was hired in what appears to be a drunken bet.

So what's next for Snyder?

I predict a look at Jon Gruden but a rejection by Chucky over control.
The sure to be fired John Fox will then be hired from Carolina once that axe falls.

Actually, I can see Gruden taking the job there.

He had zero control in Oakland with Al Davis calling the shots and almost zero control in Tampa with the cheap Glazer family.

As long as Snyder keeps bringing in vet free agents and spending money, I don't think Gruden will have any problems letting Snyderatto keep calling the player personel shots.

Well I see what it means to post an opinion or an observation on this board. I see you can't do that without the name calling or childish antics so it would be best to just kill it now.

He is one of the ones you should put on ignore. He's not worth the irritation.

Frankly, I'm not all that unhappy with the loss today. Yes, I lost my voice from cheering for them today, but in the long term a loss might be good because this franchise needs better management. This season has been a tipping point, and fans are no longer giving Snyder any leeway for being a fan and spending a lot of money. Changes will be made, and it's going to take a really bad season to do it, but Snyder will eventually be forced to hire a GM and give him real authority.

If Snyder is as stubborn as Jerry Jones then you are in for a long haul. There is every indication that he is, and he is "little guy who inherited all his money" arrogant as well. Not a good combo.

No doubt it is an uphill battle. But we got a sell the team chant started yesterday that was heard in his box. Unfortunately he apparently wasn't in it at the time. Still, there are a number of ways fans are going to try to embarrass him on Sunday. Some fans are purposely selling their tix to Eagles fans. I don't agree with that approach, but others of us are going to try to get some chants started on national TV.

That's just so profoundly stupid that it doesn't merit a response... so let's ust put it this way-- ask any Skins fan if he'd swap his organization for ours straight up right now...

They've given up on their season, they're convinced everything is hopeless... we haven't...

Well, except for YOU and a few others who think like you...

It's cool. I just let out a little frustration with the team knowing that they can be one of the elites if we stopped the undisciplined and careless plays and I did it in the wrong thread. I'm rarely a doom and gloom type of person but my bad for the confusion.

Yeah I read that. I was out there at the main road to FedEx before the game with a "Boycott Snyder" sign. Got some honks and thumbs up.

Why is Snyder the dumb one and Cerrato the dumber one in that one photo of the Commanders fans calling them dumb and dumber? Snyder is the dumber one. He has hired Cerrato twice in his career. It didn't work the first time around, so no one should be surprised it is not working now.

Yeah, I saw you returned to reality, wild man... we all have our bad days, but it's kinda strange to vent it on a bye weekend...

Or did I miss us losing to that team from Bye??

 

[HoosierCowboy]

I don't understand why a Cowboys fan would want them to be this bad. They are going to end up with a much better HC and probably one of the top QBs in the draft.

I like it much better when they are middle of the pack.

every Skins loss is a win for me
