It would have been better had DS or Allen came out and said something like "we are happy where this organization is heading or we are happy with what MS is doing for this club and we like the direction." They didn't, so when MS was asked he answered.

I thought I remember BS saying something to this effect after our last game but I could be mistaken?

Regardless...I actually think total silence from Snyder and/or Allen is best. The franchise is in a very precarious position at this point with a legacy coach who's gameday performance thus far has been underwhelming and often head-scratching and talent evaluation highly questionable.

Without significant improvement this off-season and into the 2012 season it doesn't really matter whether Mike stays or goes this time next year. If he stays we'll know to expect another couple/few losing seasons under his leadership, or lackthereof. If he goes we'll be stuck w/ the mish-mash of a roster he's built and no real direction set for his replacement. 2012 is the make or break season, though I think a risk-reward analysis indicates the wise move (by the FO) is moving on from Mike's regime now.
