This year is a little different with the upheaval of the front office, but going forward, I think his goal is to build a solid foundation/core and then create sustainable success.

Can it happen under DS, no one knows, but imo RR is the right man to prove it can.

Shanahan > Rivera

Shanahan was a better pure coach but he was more power focused. My point was to be a successful coach with the Redskins you can't want all the power, which Shanahan did, because it will end in chaos. Joe Gibbs understood that and was content to work within the constraints of DS' personality and quirks (putting it nicely). Rivera seems like the same personality as Joe Gibbs. He has a fire and passion, but it's solely focused on winning, not who gets the credit. So I expect his run here to be less chaotic, less divisive, and more productive than Shanahan's.

What is the difference between Shanahan wanting “all the power” and the current “coach-centric” structure with Rivera having all the power. It’s the same thing.

The fact that things were divisive and chaotic here under shanahan had nothing to do with shanahan and everything to do with bruce Allen and a Diva QB - two proven failures who undermined the coach at every opportunity.

There is a huge difference from Shanny's approach and RRs at least in this miniscule time slice we have. I am making judgements off what i perceive their individual temperaments are and what I perceive as their interaction with DS. I do agree BA being gone makes RRs situation seemingly better, but even without BA I believe Shanny and Danny would have imploded. I don't see that same personality friction at play with RR.
