Rifts between Shanahan and Snyder?

[skinsfan69]

I heard on the radio this am that Jay Glazer has mentioned the same thing. Basically that Snyder did not like the way Shanahan handled the McNabb/Haynesworth situations. And that since Bruce Allen has a relationship with Gruden that he would not be surprised if Gruden ended up in Washington.

That's like me saying....I would not be surprised if a meteor hit the Earth at some point in time and extinguished all life.
No real story real here just huge speculation.

I do have one theory that has been in the back of my mind since this whole AH saga started this training camp....just a theory....I wondered if AH was forced on Shanahan by Snyder because of AH's contract. Snyder made a mandate if we can not trade AH for at least a 2nd we keep him. Shanahan was desperate to unload AH at any cost and out of frustration said fine I will make this fat boy's life miserable to make him either quit or make him look bad until he quits. Either way Shanahan eventually got what he wanted which was AH off the roster with no pay.
Did Snyder figure it out and this combined with the mishandling of McNabb, maybe Snyder is starting want to pull in the slack of the FO reigns a bit?

No, Shanahan has his history of bringing in talented DTs and doing battle with them soon afterwards(Daryl Gardener and Trevor Price). Who's fault started those battles is irrelevant here. Shanahan might be in the right for all cases, he might not. Anyway, I think that when Shanahan sees a talented DT, he's always going to try to "coerce" him onboard because he sooooo wants to reap the benefits of that player and he has a bit of pride that he can coach anyone up. It worked with Pryce, but not with Haynesworth. Haynesworth talents could be used at NT, but he has quickness and agility that most other prospective NTs don't have, and

I can understand that he would try to have the Haynesworth cake and eat it too since if successful, the defense would be that much better.

I don't know if Glazer is prone to talking about unconfirmed reports over the air, but if he says that on Fox' pregame show this weekend (or after) I'll believe the story has legs.

Ok lets for a moment believe your not throwing horse hock out here right now and take it as a possible truth....

#1- Why give anyone 1-2 yrs to fix what took 10 yrs to screw up?
#2- Allen and Shanahan are good friends and both came to an agreement prior to being hired by Snyder that they would work their next gig together. So the loyalty is leaning toward Allen/Shanahan not Allen/Snyder.

#3- Snyder can be pissed all he wants to but "his" way of handling the team proved to not work out well over the course of the 10 yrs and "if" DS is truly about turning over a new leaf and letting the right people run the team then DS needs to shut up and look the other way. He admitted that how things were being run was a failure.

Lastly I find it interesting that DS goes out of his way to pick up Allen/Shanahan to make this team better and instill discipline and he would be upset at how McNabb and Haynesworth was handled? Funny cause if I was the owner I'd be more pissed at the players.

Haynesworth for not getting with the program and McNabb for the bad decision making.

But thankfully I don't believe any of the BS.

I'm just writing what I heard on The Fan this morning. Is it BS? Probably and I personally don't think Shanahan is going anywhere. But I'm sure DS isn't happy about how Shanahan has handled some things.

Really because if you ask me it seems that Shanahan handled Hansworth about the same way Snyder handled a few players. Think about Lavar and the WR (forgot his name right now) from the Jets.

Coles, Lavar was all Gregg Williams

Right Coles. You can say it was all GW but at the time he was the face of the team so DS let it go on and backed GW.

So Snyder SHOULD HAVE meddled in personnel?!

That's true but Lavar and Coles didn't get 40 mil and both of them at least produced for us on the field. What has AH done? Play a handful of games and underachieved in most of them. Ah is more in the wrong for not being a pro but Shanahan also should take blame for changing a defense to the 3-4 and not having the personel to run it....which in turn made fat Albert cry and pout more.

yeah glazer mentioned this a bit back.. nothing more has come of it yet though.. and JLC has been right on a lot of stuff this year but he's gotten quite annoying, preaching everything with I told you so to the point his statements are dripping with insecurity or at the least a slap in the face to his critics, much like Glenn Beck

Name me something JLC has been right on when it comes to the Redskins this year? If he is "right" he's usually about 2 months behind.
