  1. Bottom line, the Snyders never considered the fact that they were afforded a great privilege in owning an NFL franchise, and with that their responsibilities to properly steward that franchise. Never thinking about the future when they are no longer the owners, or the team was passed down to their kids. For them it was a status thing. As it is Josh and company are now left to pick up the pieces, with the only benefit being they have the chance to do it all the right way.
  2. Losing the name. “FedEx Field” is the change we didn’t know we needed. I’m stoked actually. Putting a new name on the stadium for the years that we have left to be there is a step forward.
  3. No serious disagreement here. I do think it was more about getting that head coaching job though than proving anything else. I think he pressed last year for that reason. He might believe he is ready for a top spot, but nobody else who has an opinion that counts appears to agree.
  4. All joking aside, the problem is very likely his ego and his approach. My impression is that he forgets he is dealing with professional millionaires in the NFL and has not figured out how to deal with them, without a counter-balance like Andy Reid. Rivera wasn’t that guy because it sounds like he just let him have total control and didn’t reel him in at all. He had success in Kansas City because they are the best team in Football right now. Some people are just meant to be supporting cast and there is nothing wrong with that.

  6. I was there that night as well. One of the finest moments in that stadium and there have been few. 28-0 at the half. I really felt that 2005 team was a serious contender once they got hot. Then 2006 was such a let down.
  7. That is my favorite part of that picture lol. Was he going to relocate the team to Florida?
  8. Bottom line, no coach will ever win 3 Super Bowls without a franchise QB for all three again. Will never happen, which is why Gibbs is the best.
  9. When Reid wins two more with two different starting QB’s maybe we can talk about him being the best. I wouldn’t hold my breath 😉 😀
  10. I must say given recent developments I’m starting to wonder if giving EB the job isn’t the best move at this point. I know that surely isn’t what most of us hoped for, but at least he has a year in with the team. Worst case scenario is it doesn’t work and he’s gone in a year or two and then we can try this again with a roster built by Peters. Maybe if he is allowed to make the team his own he can have success.
  11. We are now the sole NFC team with the longest drought since an NFC Championship game. Hell froze over for Detroit. I’m happy for their fans and looking forward to the future here. Gonna be our turn soon.
  12. The Snyder free ride they, and the Eagles and Giants have been afforded since 1999 is ****ing over. We are going to be a legitimate NFL franchise again
  13. With Snyder still in place it would be absolutely believable, but Snyder is gone. Somebody must have forgot to tell Florio. A Bellichick hiring doesn’t seem to fit the larger vision of what Josh and co. are trying to accomplish here. Me also lol The shock the first time I saw the movie was palpable.
  14. I think the difference now is that you won’t have a petulant child entering the draft room telling the scouts he doesn’t care who they want…pick my guy. Josh appears to be a very savvy and experienced sports owner who knows what he doesn’t know. Point being, they are going to go with who his NFL experts tell him they should go with.
  15. I’m not surprised either, nor do I think they hope/expect questions regarding the brand will just stop being asked eventually. I think they know they have to make the right impressions. All of this is about winning Football games first and foremost. If I was a prospective Coach or GM I would definitely question the seriousness of the organization about doing what is important if the day you fire your previous coach you are also taking about new names and uniforms.
  16. As important as that issue is to many of us, it definitely takes a backseat to the picking of a GM and a coach. I’m confident the name/brand gets addressed at some point down the road when the time is right. Josh’s response proves that adults are in the room and they are focused on the most important stuff first.
  17. Well here we are people. I like everything that has happened so far today. Lots more to come. ”Now, this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end…but it is perhaps the end of the beginning” Winston Churchill We have a new Sheriff in town and he is going to do things right. I’m ready for the ride.
