So the clown show continues.🤣😠☹️😢 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrFan Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 As long as danny boy runs his fantasy football team nothing is going to really change, cosmetics at best. After Cerrato and Allen who's going to be the next yes man ? Allen to the Rams ! Yessss ! He's back as our HC (allright, I know I ingested too many substances during Xmas) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veteranskinsfan Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Tomorrow there may be a new phrase associated with the Skins- "Losing off the Field". For many years we joked about the Danny firing up his jet to go get a high priced worthless free agent and called it "Winning off the Field" because we hoped the free agents he brought back on the plane would pan out. It will definitely be Losing off the Field if we find out Bruce is still employed by the Skins, even if he works remotely from the Shenandoah Mountains in a small hut and only has dial up internet service and an old telephone. Also fans will be so angry another new term will emerge- the Deadskins until this owner completely cuts ties with Allen- regardless of who he puts in the front office and who he hires as the next Head Coach.

Skinsinparadise Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Though Paulsen contradicts the point here as to Lewis. So wow Marvin is such a get he'd be HC with serious personnel powers, too? 2 minutes ago, boston skins fan said: You know this how? Maybe he picked a GM and then picked a coach.

ggarriso Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Marvin Lewis lol - hes won nothing - bengals were mediocre under him for years. That would prob be enough to get the few remaining fans to jump ship, especially if he brings his boy Hue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdlives Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Obviously all speculation but the situation and moves being thrown around right now are underwhelming at best. Bruce still has a job? Really? Then Marvin Lewis? Riddick? Is Dan so hated no one actually in the league will work for him? This would mark yet another time when Snyder hires a bunch of people no one else will touch. Bruce Allen didn’t have a job before Dan hired him too. These people aren’t working for a reason. Dan may not be stupid, but he’s blind as a bat. Either that, or the stigma around him is really that bad. Even Jerry Jones does better at hiring people than Dan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 The two names in the running so far, Rivera & Lewis, are both Defensive coaches which allows the the team to keep Kevin O'Connell in place as the OC. Remember, ever since Jason Campbell (Gibbs/Saunders/Zorn), our young QBs(RG3/Kirk- Kyle/McVay/LeFleur) had been constantly getting new OC which some pointed to as screwing up their development.

Which would make sense and be the first time Dan has hired a defensive minded coach. But then some are also saying Hue Jackson would be in play? Yet another guy who couldn’t get a job in the NFL. Bruce not being completely out is still the most baffling part of this. He’s made no progress on the stadium and quite frankly I really question the validity of his use in talks. A winning team is what will get the deal done, not some semi-well connected greaseball politician. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Rivera is still (as of last night) the front runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dissident2 Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Rivera ... Lewis ... ugh. Neither excites me in any way. Nor does a "reassigned Bruce Allen." I want to see Snyder in front of that microphone on Monday APOLOGIZING to the few fans remaining who care and taking responsibility for the implosion of this franchise. Pretty much guarantee he's not man enough to do it. And remember, you can't spell "reassigned" without "ASS". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is pretty much where I've been at. Though after sleeping on it, I've warmed up on the Rivera front from "ewww" to "well if it keeps O'Connell here with Haskins we'll see". Bruce still needs to be out of the League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joking aside I really don’t know, but wouldn’t be surprised since Snyder is the opposite of Midas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to insult KOC and compare him to Haslett, but this smells like the same type of scenario we’ve seen in the past. Hire a head coach who will take some leftovers.

Let the new head coach bring his own staff without stipulation. It shouldn’t be this difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing really making me happy about Rivera is the threat of Lewis getting the job. Although, 43, Smith and KoC staying, etc, theres some bright spots.

@DCGoldPants Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Again, this is like the bargaining stage of death here in the thread. "Ok, Bruce is going to stay but what if we keep KOC and Eric Schaffer gets more power to....... and Marvin Lewis has lunch with Rivera......" Cleaning house means everyone. It can't be personal. But the entire front office, coaches, med staff, scouts, EVERYONE if you really want to start over and hand the keys to a new leader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
