Malapropismic Depository Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 I would be in favor of Shanahan, the GM. It just has about zero chance of happening. Which brings me to probably the biggest problem with the Redskins, that I havn't heard anyone mention - burning bridges. We have a pattern of guys leaving town on very bad terms, and never wanting to come back. You can't do that in the NFL - and you can't do that in life. In the NFL especially, there often comes a time when you may want to bring someone back, but the damage done, makes that nearly impossible.

Silvernon Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Schaffer's role has grown since Cerrato left, and seemingly more since Allen. it's just a matter of time. Schaffer promoted to GM (2019) with the luxury of making an immediate change at HC and likely to get more than one chance at a HC hire. Allen probably stays on as President.

Koala Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Our front office needs personnel with good character. That stuff isn't just for the players -- it' s actually important, and it tends to seep down to affect all aspects of the organization. Our abysmal record over the last quarter century has actually been little more than a small dose of cosmic justice. Bruce Allen is a snake. McCloughan was an alcoholic in denial. Shanahan was cagey, Cerrato had no backbone or perceivable talent, and Schottenheimer had a huge ego. Gibbs was the only decent fellow to sit in the chair, and produced the only spell of decent results relieving us of the constant turd sandwiches that the carousel of various assholes has been offering us for the last 25 years. That was no coincidence. This isn't rocket science. Find good people that can be trusted, trust them, and all the other pieces will fall into place. If this is an alien concept to Dan Snyder, hire Joe Gibbs to be an adviser on human matters, and proceed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkabong82 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Absolutely not. I want Bruce gone, so this isn't a one or the other thing. Facts are facts. McCloughan drank on the job despite already losign 2 jobs because of it. He straight up disappeared right when free agency was about to start. His drafting here had mixed results, his free agency acquistions mostly mediocre or poor. Would much rather start fresh at GM. Honestly would really prefer Allen fired, Schaeffer takes over as President and he hires a GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildbunny Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 I'm not a big fan of reboots. I'd rather start fresh also, with a new GM. Learn from your mistakes and move on. That's how you grow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, he wasn't even a GM. Imagine if his full focus was on personnel. I'm not one for would-have/could-have/should-haves but had the QB situation here been stable under his watch, we'd have been in a Super Bowl with the squad he drafted and the squad he could have drafted had he stayed. Say what you want about his character, but Shanahan has forgotten more about football than Gruden knows and Bruce Allen has no business assuming the same personnel responsibilities as someone like Mike once did. Dan once apologized to Charley Casserly for firing him over Norv, maybe he can set aside his ego again and make amends with MS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobandweave Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Fire Bruce Allen, don't think Scot M is a difference maker or really want him back. You can't believe a thing he says, he's always positive about everyone and says whatever it is he thinks people want to hear but would gladly accept Scot returning or hell anyone entering if it means Bruce is out.

The rap on Shanny when he left Denver was the GM Shanny got the head coach Shanny fired. I'd run with the idea that Shanny being a bad GM is overstated by some -- especially the Denver media. I don't think he was a bad GM, I think he was mediocre as a GM both here and as Denver. Would I want Shanny as a full time GM? No way. Over Bruce, sure. But Shanny is an offensive genius -- I'd love him as an offensive coordinator type but not as a GM. I don't really like any HC type acting as a GM aside from Belichick. I agree with the idea that GM's aren't perfect and they have plenty of misses but overall I'd say Shanny's drafts were at best so so. I thought the 2011 draft was brilliant at the time but wow out of 12 picks, 1 starter? 2 part timers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Barbour Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Only Redskin fans would want to bring back a guy who has a history of losing himself in his illness. Who has now been fired by 3 teams for it. Who filled this roster with a handful of average players and missed on several picks. I get it. He was cool, and he is loved by the players. Well, so if the Head Coach but the same people wanting Scot back want Jay gone. I get that Scot was the first real GM in the Snyder era and most of the fans who only know the Snyder era think we missed on something. You have a guy in the front office right now perfectly suited to be a great GM and is commended around the league. And no...Im not talking about Bruce Allen or Doug Williams. Open your eyes.
