Remember that Bruce Allen is also rebuilding the front office.
With all the Shanny talk, and how his control over player personnel. We aren't talking a lot about the other pieces that are in motion.
When Bruce spoke yesterday about being aggressive, I took it to mean not just with hiring a new coach. But also improving your front office. I believe the goal...

What was your most gut-wrenching defeat this year?
It happens to all of us, the gut-wrenching fantasy defeat. You know, the ones that have you kicking yourself afterwards and/or wondering why the fantasy gods hate you so much.
My worst one this year was in the Yahoo league I've been running for the past 7 years.
It was probably the best team...

Om Field: As the Redskins Turn
*As the Redskins Turn*
January 5, 2010
With one final, predictable fourth-quarter collapse, the circus that was the Jim Zorn Era in Washington came to a close in sunny San Diego on Sunday. The only surprising thing about the latest as-if-scripted loss was that there might be anyone left out...

Will/Should Colt get a real shot at starting under a new coach?
This is not a Cult of Colt thread. In fact, I don't know that I've ever really commented about him at all. I was just watching 1st and 10 on ESPN, and they were discussing the big question: keep JC or draft a new QB. It was the same old story. Bradford isn't durable. JC is solid. If your franchise...

Why did Shanahan "hand-pick" Allen to be his GM?
I've seen discourse here that Shanahan "hand-picked" Allen to be his GM, with this spawning from a report out of the Bills interview. What my question is, and I don't think this has really been discussed, is what connection they have that Shanahan wanted Allen so much.
As far as I'm aware, they...

What really is bruce allen's role?
After reading several posts on this board I am confused about what is Bruce Allen's actual role with the redskins. Is he a real GM like a Bill Polian or Ozzie Newsome?
1. I have read that Allen was recommended by Shanahan and that he is Shanahan's handpicked choice for GM. I don't know if that...

Reality Sets In -Get Ready for Rebuilding YEARS
With all the hoopla regarding potential new coaches and the new GM it is easy to drink the koolaid and surrender to fleeting offseason bliss. Unfortunately offseason bliss leads to disappointment during the season. We need to temper our expectations and look at the Skins as a multi-year...

Shanahan & Player Personnel
I am very excited at the idea of having Mike Shanahan coach our team and the Shanahans run our offense.
That said, there have been reports that he will be Head Coach and Team President and have certain control or influence over players.
If Allen has full control over Dan on the Draft, can...

Snyder is an experienced vet football guy

He was commenting about how so many people talk about Snyder as a non-football guy with no background, but countered by saying that the man has ten years of experience in the world of professional football. ...

Could Bill Sheridan be our future D-coordinator?
I think the Giants may have been a little quick on the trigger on this one. ESPN is reporting the Giants have fired rookie D-Coordinator Bill Sheridan.
They are blaming Sheridan for the collapse of the defense which is pretty unfair because they lost 3/4 of the starting secondary and their...

Has Due Diligence REALLY Been Done?
Since it looks like Mike Shanahan will be the Skins' next coach, I honestly have to ask whether he's the best man out there or if it's just Danny up to his old tricks. News reports -- and take them for what they're worth -- have Danny and Shanahan agreeing to a contract months ago while Jim Zorn...

List of the most recycled arguments for and against Campbell
I don't know about everyone else, but I'm growing tired of some of the arguments for and against keeping Campbell. I know that after we decide on a head coach, the qb position will be the next most critical move, and naturally debate will follow. That being said, I just find it absurd that every...
