News of the AXE possibly droppin on VINNY.

[MTK]

I don't see how everything should go back to Vinny... if anything we should look at the top of the organization. Everything starts with Snyder and works it's way down. Let's stop with this nonsense of placing all the blame with Vinny anytime something doesn't work out.

Let's keep in mind that Gibbs is the team president and he is the one that could easily make the call of let's drop Vinny and get a GM. Gibbs is the one that is comfortable with this current setup... blaming Vinny for everything is just silly and demonstrates a clear lack of understanding of how the decision making of this front office works and why it is set up the way it is.

I wonder just how much influence Gibbs has on Snyder. Vinny has been w/the danny a long time now & obviously has kept him on the payroll & high up the chain of command. Even if Gibbs was unhappy w/Vinny, would he have that much pull to get him fired. I know a lot of people will suppose that the Danny will do anything Gibbs says, but it's still DS' team & he isn't a hands off owner.

I certainly agree that blaming Vinny has become way too fashionable for skins fans, guess he's an easy scapegoat and that its harder to complain about the danny since he brought Gibbs back.

This season will really be a test for this front office. If we can't win in Gibbs' 4th year back w/this vet roster I would think there would be major changes.

After this season it will bear itself out. If we're succcesful it will be business as usual for the next couple of years. If we have another losing season I can see Gibbs taking the president only role, bringing in a strong GM to replace Vinny and making a strong push for Cowher. Gibbs is smart enough to realize when something is NOT working and since he has had some success and is open to change and compromise for the good of the organization. While Vinny is not the only one at fault he is the 'face' of our personnel problems. You can't fire the owner.
