Come up with a new name for the Redskins

I think it's fair to rationalize that the 3 names that they are choosing from were at least spotlighted in the Making the Brand Videos. Those 8 are the ones from this most current one. I just don't think this front office, and Jason Wright particularly is trying to be super secretive about it. I think they are trying to walk the fanbase to the one that is the eventual new name.

For me it's pretty easy to see Wolves/RedWolves (W/RW) as being where these videos point to. Whether it's the subtle imagery points in the flip sheets, the multiple fan groups howling, or even the words they use to describe the final choice. They all easily can be pointed to W/RW. I believe in fan polling RedWolves was the leading name, and they are doing nothing with these videos to minimize or reduce it's popularity. Instead, through subtle and not so subtle imagery they are reinforcing the W/RW imagery and sounds. Short of having wolves running in the background, I doubt they could do much more to highlight that name as an option.

Wolves are such bad ass animals. I talked to Stone Cold and he loves it, so everyone else should too, because Stone Cold said so.

SF69, you'll get use to Punch howling all the time.

Agree. I cant believe WFT would even consider using those names.

Just to be clear, because everyone keeps asking, we are down to and working through a final three but this is no form of final 8 list. These are just a selection of names that happened to show up in the video our team produced.

Good, because that list of 8 that was floating around was trash

I will be shocked if its not Redwolves

Ross Tucker this morning "I believe Red Hogs will be the name"

It is kinda catchy

Is a redhog even a real thing? When I google it all that comes up are BBQ joints or butcher shops.

I think it's terrible.

Apparently it is, basically like the Razorback.. I'd prefer just Wolves over 90% of these names.

Defenders is kinda cool

WFT is solid

Red wolves is Ok

I would prefer Wolves or Wolfpack , the use of "Red" though feels like too much of an effort to link to the past.
Surprised there haven't been more good animal related names, but I guess they are too widely used in HS and CFB.

I Just don't see a Red Wolf as a DC Based tradition... I mean I guess that doesn't matter much but still.. I mean isn't that basically a Coyote? I agree the word RED doesn't have to be in the name.

I really liked Warriors...

Redhog just seems a little clumsy and forced
