Daniel Snyder won’t intervene in Redskins’ quarterback decision

Well this is big news

Not to me. Formally forbid it for any reason other than a true injury. Write a MF'n letter and tell him not to do it or he'll risk being fired for cause. Then release a statement calling into question Shanahan's motives and integrity. Start fighting back.

Certain owners could get away with that and not be considered a pariah among the coaching community. For most, including Dan, it just makes them look bad.

Remember Al Davis and his news conference where he justified firing Lane Kiffin. Al was ridiculed. Turned out he was right and Lane was a weasel of boss proportions but, at the time, Al was torched by fans and commentators.

Nope. Dan needs to sit down and let Shanahan expose himself as the egoist he is.

Yeah but in that case Shanny wins and walks away with his $7M and Snyder looking like the meddling a-hole.

It won't happen but it would be great drama if he just canned Kyle now.

Ha that's brilliant!!! Would love to see Shannys presser after a Kyle firing.
