skinfan2k Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Simply question here. If (I was ready to say When hehe!) Dan Snyder and company win a super bowl, does everything in the past get erased from your mind? Do the number of firing and hirings not matter to you at anymore? the number of free agent busts? the lousy stadium of Fedex? Does 1 superbowl win relieve everything he has done in the past? Does it matter how he wins the big game or what he does after? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Tater Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I voted yes but only if its one that is at least surrounded by several years of solid teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 IMO, nothing will "erase" the mistakes he's made as the owner of this team. I'd let it go, sure, but it would not be erased from my memory. I'd call a spade a spade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright, my buddy asks me this all the time? would you A) take 1 superbowl win in between 10 years of total crap take 5 nfc championships and not win the big game He said because he would enjoy each season as a fan and knowing that he had a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyansRangers Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 yes because if we win a superbowl you can chalk it upto growing pains as an onwer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsFTW Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 As long as Dallas, NYG, Philly don't win one in the same decade. Otherwise he's gonna owe us at least 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulRebel Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 yes because if we win a superbowl you can chalk it upto growing pains as an onwer x2. Snyder has repeatedly said his goal is to ultimately win a super bowl, and if he does, then he learned from the mistakes and found the right mix for success.

kameuh Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Sure the Dan winning a SB would clean the slate. But lets face it, the odds of that happening are low based on his past performances as owner. Until he does, I'll carry on hating the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hail2skins Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I voted yes but only if its one that is at least surrounded by several years of solid teams. Agreed.......at least need the year prior to the SB or the year after the SB to be one with a winning record. I don't want to be known as the team that was a fluky Super Bowl winner.

#98QBKiller Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I say yes, especially if we're a consistent playoff team that has realistic chances at Super Bowls for a decent number of years. Winning cures all in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poman Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I voted no....I would say it would definetly help, but I would want a consistently good team and organization to be a huge part of getting that Super Bowl win.....And many more after that... Or at least that Super Bowl being the beginning of being a consistently good team and organization. I work for the Carolina Panthers all the time, and after week 4, noody cared at all. I was making presentations for them, asking for direction on how to do things, they would literally say "Dont care, do what you want, the season is over anyway". If that was the culture around FedEx(its not right? ) I would be hugely dissapointed, even with a Super Bowl win tied in there somewhere....

tdigle Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 2 SB wins in a row ought to do the trick; seven NFC Championship games in ten years would do the trick as well (wouldn't even need to win any of them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirt Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I might be alone here, but I already kinda consider the slate clean. A decade of screw ups is a lot to make up for, but there's no reason to dwell on it. I dunno what it is, I just really believe he's hands-off this time. I believe he made a great decision with Shannahan/Allen, and he's going to let them run the team for years, with no personnel involvement whatsoever. At this point, all we can ask for is a 'normal' football team, and It's becoming that very quickly. There was only one guy being a *****, and he ended up SUSPENDED. If nothing else, this is an actual football team now, and Snyder is nowhere to be seen, and when he is, he's saying all the right things. That's all we wanted wasn't it?

cphil006 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Our whole model needs to change. I believe it has gone towards the positive since Vinny left. We were never going anywhere with that clown within 100 miles of Redskin Park... now he's gone and we've got someone with real experience in hiring experts to perform their respectice taks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailGreen28 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 If we win a Superbowl in the next few years, Snyder goes from bad owner to good owner, in my book for what that's worth. Not JKC good, but good. If Snyder owns the team for the next twenty years, and we win only one Superbowl, HECK NO HE STILL STINKS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was calling for Snyder to sell the team and had even donated money to that metro ad making the request. However, he's doing it right by not doing anything at all. A Super Bowl and Steelers-like success would work for me. Minus the rapist. Kthx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdlives Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 I guess my standards are really high, but after 10 years of fail, I'm thinking not only does Snyder need to win 2 SB's, he also needs to build a consistent contender. He's put us through too much to accept a single championship season at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the words of the great Ricky Bobby "If you ain't first, you're last." I would rather win it once than come close a lot. Close only counts in horse shoes and hand grenades.

wildbill1952 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 If/when a SuperBowl is won by the Redskins, it shows perfectly what happens when a billionaire tries to turn his NFL franchise into his personal Fantasy Football team and how the true football professionals were needed to turn it around. If anything, a SB with Allen and Shanahan at the helm vindicate the critics of both Snyder and Cerrato. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
