Whether Rivera is successful here or not will all depend on if Snyder can stay out of football related matters. No meddling, no taking over the first round of the draft, no undermining the HC by buddying up with the QB, etc.

100% accurate, but regarding the bolded part, the first signs are promising, aren't they ?
I get the feeling Snyder may have understood that he needs to change (to the extent that his arrogance allows).

The signs are promising. If we look at the coaching history under Snyder he's hired almost all types of prospects. Hard nosed coach with unwavering discipline, college hot shot moving to the NFL, up and coming offensive mind, established coach with multiple super bowl wins, don't know what the hell Zorn is but still gave him a shot.

And now, we've come full circle to a coach who is hard nosed and a disciplinarian. We will see just how far Snyder has come with the way he handles things this time around.
