All things off season 2015.

Allen made it pretty clear last year he was going to be involved with personnel decisions. Even under Shanahan he had input. That area has never been his strength.

Even with Tampa bay, it was a mix bag of results....at best. I would really love to see him step back from player aquisition, talent evaluation, scouting, etc.
He seems to do a pretty good job with PR, contracts, salary cap, etc

As GM it's Allen's job to take the heat. The more Snyder stays in the background the better.

I pretty stunned anyone would even interview Shanny after his run here.

I feel the same. I guess some folks just blame Snyder for the poo-in-the-fan fiasco.

So why would anyone hire Belichick after his time with the Browns ?

Pete Carroll after his time with the Jets or Patriots ?

Not the same. Belichick didn't poop on everyone and everything on his way out the door. Mike Shanahan's exit was particularly unprofessional, as if he didn't want another job.

Remind me again, did those situations end with highly embarrassing leaks, public tiffs with management, and disagreements with and ultimately the benching of their starting quarterback on the scale that it was here in DC?

The mess he left is reason enough he should be toxic around the league.

Unless I missed something, 2014 wasn't exactly great for the Redskins. All Shanahan has to do is point to the last 6 months here and say "See. It wasn't me. It's a shitty organization"

Mike Shanahan is an idiot.
Good luck Frisco, your QB can stay on the field with a blown out knee.

Mike is a good coach I really believe that.

Re: All things off season 2015.

^its all about structure and clear understanding of roles and responsibilities. I mean, Ive never worked in an nfl organization, but it seems like your breakdown makes sense and my expectation of would be most nfl org would run like that example. Bruce absorbing both was foolish. I'm surprised Dan would actually allow it. Strange. But I also worry about other folks in Dan ear as well who apparently have a voice who clearly shouldn't. What we need is someone in the org who refuses those other voices and opinions.

Dimitroff could be out in ATL
Snyder better snag him if Blank is stupid enough to fire him!
