It is the elephant in the room and it cannot be ignored.

Let me ask you this. Does it make any sense to you whatsoever that Dan Snyder would hire Joe Gibbs to establish a culture of winning at Redskins Park by building a coaching staff, roster, and style of play that could be carried into the future and then, when Joe left, not hire someone from the Gibbs coaching tree to carry the work forward? I think that was a huge mistake by Snyder that made virtually everything that Gibbs did for the Redskins a waste of time and effort.

Having the foundation built for him by Joe Gibbs and then moving away from that by hiring someone from another coaching tree was an act of extreme hubris on Snyder's part. I remember that, when Gibbs left, Snyder was asked during a press conference what he learned from Joe Gibbs. After a long pause, he finally said "patience". The truth is he learned next to nothing.

Anything that goes wrong during Zorn's tenure is ultimately the fault of Dan Snyder because he's the man that blew up the foundation Joe Gibbs built for him.

I think that the point is that Danny is with us to stay so complaining about him serves no purpose. We might as well find other things to talk about because ripping Danny, even if he merits it, is a pointless exercise.
