Hmmmm ... still piecing this one together.

Alright I got it. Its much more complicated than that.

Bruce knew that Dan was not happy about Haskins not getting the red carpet treatment by Jay so Bruce went about trying to sabotage Jay and get him an early termination.

Who does Bruce go to? Who does he know in the national media with a connection to the Skins that would do all of his evil bidding? Tito Leibowitz, he was a small time ... er Louis Riddick, a small time team personnel guy who was itching for a GM job and Bruce knew would say or do anything he asked.

Bruce knows he needs to bring in a GM type this offseason so who better than the lackey himself, Louis Riddick. Someone Bruce wont have to worry about starting a coup against him, Louis Riddick is a company man.

I'm more of the thought that Riddick was speaking out on his own and basically saying hey Dan, I see the problems you're having, I know how to fix them, call me

O’Connell. His playcalling is getting better and better, especially when not interfered with by Callahan and before that Gruden.

Callahan is showing how we will go 8-40 win-loss from 2020-2022 as he plays caveman football.

It's so painfully obvious Riddick has an agenda and that is why I don't want him. And it would be such a Dan Snyder hire to bring him in here. Bring in someone who likes the QB that Bruce and I picked.

[VTSkins1961]

Whoever they bring ion as GM must run the show without Lil Danny and Brucey telling him who to draft or trade or sign free agent...

The GM should hire the coach but I am curious how O'Connell would work out...

This morning two more Redskins names were thrown out for possible trades. Ian Rapoport mentions that Josh Norman is being shopped, something that Albert Breer also reported a few days ago. That trade would not bring back much in return due to Norman’s age and contract.

The new name in the trade market is Ryan Kerrigan. Jason La Canfora reports that the Baltimore Ravens, Indianapolis Colts, and others are interested in the Pro Bowl OLB. Kerrigan’s contract is up after next season, and he will be 32 next August. He is on pace for his worst statistical season since entering the league as a 1st round pick in 2011. La Canfora says it doesn’t sound like the Redskins are looking to move Kerrigan, despite the fact that they are 1-7, and need to rebuild under a new Head Coach next year.

The Redskins are one of two franchises, along with the Bengals, that are irritating other NFL teams with their unwillingness to listen to offers ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline. That's according to a new CBS report that was published Sunday.

Washington and Cincinnati been receiving calls for a while now, yet so far "ownership has declined to even consider moving forward on them," Jason La Canfora writes. Those around the league are apparently quite annoyed by this, with one GM saying specifically of the Redskins, "It's not like you are dealing with a normal team."

It wont matter who the new coach is if Bruce remains the GM and remains in a "win now" approach.

I cant imagine they are offering anything more than like a 4th for Kerrigan but you have to trade him. He is going to count $11.75M against the cap next year, is slowing down and we have HEAVILY INVESTED on the D line and edge rushers. We have Ioannidis, Sweat and Ryan Anderson.

Some of the D line $ needs to go to the O line.

If the Skins let Scherff walk but keep Ryan Kerrigan on for a final meaningless year ...

FUCK YOU BRUCE

Fine, let them keep losing with the players they have. I hope they go 1-15 and have literally no one coming to the games except the other teams fans.

So basically the road we are on now??

The incompetence of roster management is pathetic. Why are we keeping guys who are at the end of deals instead of rebuilding? We are not a player away. The lack of awareness with the organization is frustrating

If the skins don't trade some of these old players, then people should stop going to any games. This may make a clear statement to ownership. We need a lot of picks and these old guys are making to much money to sit on this team and not producing.

Idk how many games you've watched this year, but that's already the case. As long as Dan gets a cut of league revenue (which he does every year) we're not going to hurt his wallet.

He just needs to realize we need to embrace a full rebuild, start selling players for as much as possible now, fire Bruce obviously, and start over again.

Bruce is only keeping players to save his own ass. He should've been canned just after Gruden. Snyder must be doing his best Wolf of Wall St. impression if he doesn't realize Allen has ruined this franchise.

That and despite his bungling the Redskins are worth about 4x what he paid for them.

OK -- then time to sell, Danny. Maybe Kevin Durant and Matthew McConaughey can join forces to buy their favorite team.

Its not a lack of awareness at all. The complete opposite.

Bruce Allen knows that if we end the season 1-15 or 2-14, he's likely getting fired. Allen's best chance to keep his job is for the team to get to 5-11 or 6-10 and use a bunch of excuses to convince Snyder that they really are still "close."
To make that happen, Allen NEEDS all of these players on the roster.

Allen is quite aware of the situation and is doing what is in his own best interest. Why would he trade players for future draft picks when his doing so would only make it much more likely that he gets fired? Why screw himself over to help out his successor?

As a fan, that's what we want Allen to do because its whats best for the team. But whats best for the team is not whats best for Bruce Allen.

I haven't heard anything all year long about Bruce's job being in danger. As much as we all want him to go, i think there is a better chance of him being here next year, possibly beyond. People seem to underestimate how close Dan and Bruce are. Way closer than him and Vinny ever were. This has been reported. Maybe Dan wakes up and realizes how toxic Bruce really is, but I doubt it. I hope i'm wrong. Everyone hopes that Bruce gets fired, i just don't see it happening.
