Agreed. I’ve said the same thing. I can understand why Snyder would keep Gruden and Manusky until the end of the season, but there is NOTHING stopping him from firing or reassigning Bruce. If he was going to do it he would have by now.

I agree. GM isn't one of those positions teams typically wait until the end of the season to fire someone. He should have been fired weeks ago, that way we could get a head start on other teams that will also have an opening (and probably a more attractive opening than ours)

I don't know if that is "a purge". As Sheehan said a couple of days ago, in 31 out of 32 organisations, the firing of a couple of business guys isn't even a news, fans don't know their names.
Dysfunction in this organisation leads us to react to everything, but I don't know that those firings were an indication either way...

Fair enough purge was a harsh word, but if you let the COO go because you plan on moving the team President into an equivalent position, you make simultaneous announcements - that would have been the easiest way to handle moving BA out of football operations - but DS didn't so I doubt there is a reason to expect a change in the off season.

There is little to support your contention. Allen might be fired after the season is over.

There is little to support him being fired. DS history with GM's (particularly VC) is to fire in season, and after the Giants debacle, he could have fired him with no fan backlash. Obviously, he still could and fans would be happy, but consider the following facts.

The Skins got blown out by the Giants - BA stays
The Skins get thrashed in the media for Reuben Foster signing - BA stays
The Skins bring in buttfumble who fails - BA stays
DJ repeatedly calls out the coaches - BA stays and allows JG/Staff to release DJ
Dan Snyder accepts the resignations/fires a promising COO and staff who are here less than a year - BA stays on the football side.


As President, BA could be held responsible for any or all of the various issues. Certainly the fans as a whole have called for his dismissal, but DS has made 0 moves that show BA has lost his support.

You say there is little to support my contention, except the fact that as President, BA could have been moved, let go at anytime without backlash or in season concerns of firing a coach, and DS has done NOTHING to show that is in his plans.

If Bruce Allen gets fired by new years day, I will go buy a bottle of jagermeister and throw a 1 person party.

Re: Time to clean house 1.0.

Whatever the speculation is with Cooley when it comes to coaching or front office, etc., he needs to come in and earn his stripes. Assistant to something. Skins do themselves zero favors bringing in old skins into influential positions. It’s not a good look.

If anything the Skins need to bring in guys from successful orgs to show them how to run a competent front office. Eric Schaffer seems to be the only guy who has earned his way and has done a good job. People say Kyle Smith...I just don’t know what he has actually done.

There is a list of guys outside the org who have clearly earned a chance to be GM...I’d like us to go this route. Cooley, Doug Williams, Bruce Allen, Kyle Smith...not exactly the group of people who I believe can get it right.

What had Sean mcvay done before he was given the opportunity? If we don’t give him a shot, someone else will. I’m tired of letting our top talent go elsewhere and succeed
