Also there were Tweets that Snyder was looking into GMs and Rick Smith and Louis Riddick’s came up. I guess so much for the GM picking the coach. Also what happens with K Smith. Lot of things to be determined. The same speculation in an article I saw that had the same mentions of the GMs was that Snyder is a huge fan of O'Connell and Callahan, and that the new hire could have a defensive slant so they could keep both coaches. Sounds like another Zorn type situation to me, which means Snyder has learned nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTMONK HOF Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Wondering if Rivera and Lewis are a smoke screen, and there’s another coach that’s the hire. 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I bet Callahan is in Cincinnati with his son next year. I’d love for KOC to stay on at this point considering the progress Haskins was making. I don’t want to Jason Campbell him.

Because it's happened before, it can happen again. Besides, what are the odds that Snyder has learned anything and actually does this the right way? 20 years of ownership speaks volumes here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When has he hired a new coach and then kept the interim coach the following season? It’s not happening. Callahan is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping the interim head coach, who has actually done a great job with the offensive line and improving discipline with the younger players, isn't a big leap from hiring an OC before the head coach.

That was the year he gave Cerrato full control and Zorn was a Cerrato guy. That obviously never should’ve happened but nobody was taking that job when he decided to give Vinnie that level of control. Im choosing to wait this out. I’m not totally convinced Bruce is staying on in any capacity and I personally do not understand why he would accept a demotion? Once the full information is out there then I’ll decide how I feel and what I’ll do as a fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually won't be as upset about it if Snyder just demotes him to business operations rather than give him some BS title like "New Stadium Liaison." We know what influence he will exert if he's still in the building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naptownskinsfan Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 @lavar703 I'd love to be wrong, but I just can't be optimistic after 20 years of Snyder ownership, especially after watching the "local" teams in Baltimore, Pittsburgh and even Philly having sustained success over this same time period. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTMONK HOF Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Dan Snyder would like to introduce a new head coach Monday, Urban Meyer "could be under consideration for a front office role," and Louis Riddick is a strong candidate for the #Redskins' GM job, per @Lescarpenter and @MarkMaske.

aceinthehouse Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 I still think Urban Meyer will be part of this organization, somehow. I don't think him being in the box was a coincidence & neither do I think Haskins & Terry McLaurin sitting out wk-17 is a coincidence either. Yes, I know Haskins has an ankle sprain & Terry is in concussion protocol. But I really think it's more than that. Like....Urban Meyer already making football decisions, for the betterment of the team. At least, I hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aceinthehouse Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 I want to say 1 more thing to those people who want a GM hired....then a head coach....then staff & scouts & doctors, etc. All in cronological order like a proper football team should be. Did you ever think that maybe Snyder knows he's got to move quickly, if he wants to get his guy(s). Cause we all know after we end the Cowboys dreams today...lol Garrett will be fired from Dallas. Shurmer probably gets canned from the Giants. Jags already looking... Kitchens probably getting canned from browns. Patricia maybe from Lions Gase maybe from Jets And on, and on and on .. Point is, Snyder has to move quick if he has a plan. He doesn't have all freaking month to hire a GM, so that guy can sat on his thumbs. We're not picking the next pope here & waiting for white smoke. (Or is it dark) Snyder has to move quickly.... Otherwise, if we wait? Our coaching options might be Hue Jackson or Joe Barry.

If he had a plan, he would've been moving on a GM earlier in the year instead of waiting until the end like this. So that should tell us all about where this is going to end up, plus 20 years of history. Even hiring a GM and saying he's going to evaluate everything from the top down and keeping the coaching staff intact for another year would be better than hiring the coach first, GM second. That's not the way the smart organizations play it. And I could get behind that if the person truly has full control over football operations and Snyder stays out of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
