Truth is, nothing is going to make this feel better until Fassel clearly redeems Snyder by winning a whole bunch of games. Unless this guy goes 10-6/11-5 and vies for a second round playoff berth or even a conference championship, the Skins will never live this decision down.

This isn't going away. Not during the draft, not during training camp, not during pre-season, and not for at least the first 8 games of the regular season.

The very first time JC throws an interception, it will be Snyder's and Fassel's fault. Now is that reasonable? Probably not. But to many fans, neither is bringing someone into our "house" who knows nothing about the way we set our plates out on the dinner table, what time we serve dinner, and who's turn it is to wash the dishes.

There are rules and ettiquette that generally apply to every situation, then there are "how we do things around here." I think the Redskins we're on to something with the latter. Now it looks like they're going to re-set the dinner table, so to speak.
