I don't understand why the notion persists that Dan Snyder is actively meddling in the game time personnel decisions when it comes to Griffin.
When Dan and Mike Shanahan were clearly at odds Dan did not prevent Mike from benching Griffin.
Last season Dan didn't prevent Jay from benching him either.
The only internal politics about the QB position that I can see are the current HC never appeared to be willing/eager to work with the potential franchise QB he inherited. Jay imho expressed a rather curious amount of impatience and made no bones his feeling toward Griffin during the season. Jay's level of faith in Griffin is imho the biggest hurdle to Griffin's ability to max out his potential with Jay as his playcaller.
This season will answer many questions for me, the main question being whether a player/QB can have success with a HC/OC/playcaller that doesn't believe/want them.
