That wasn't really the point of the Post article or what anyone else was saying here.
Yes, the Redskins won without him, no disputing that. But they won in spite of treating him poorly.
Contrary to what alot of rabid football fans think, winning isn't everything. Winning at the expensive of a long line of disenfranchised, pissed off players who now have an axe to grind is a pretty poor commentary on the management of this franchise. It's not an isolated person here or there, it's one guy after another leaving this city and hating us. Why do we keep tossing valuable players aside like trash? It sure hasn't gotten us much so far.
Chalk it up to free agency or "that's how business works" or whatever you want, but there seems to be an unusually high number of situations like this with the Redskins.
I'll say it again, yes the team is more important than the man. But does that justify treating one man after another like dirt?
