Will Dan Snyder finally fire Vinny Cerrato

I think Vinny won't have the same responsibility he currently has with the Redskins, but it's still possible he'll just be re-assigned within the organization.

Can't verify it, but I heard a rumor that Snyder really laid into Vinny a couple of weeks ago about the state of the team and some of Cerrato's decisions. So if that's true, I suppose it's very possible VC gets canned

This is a great question, and I think there is no question more pertinent to the Skins' future. But the question is, is there any real reason to think Snyder will get rid of Vinny, I mean, besides the fact that it's beyond disputable that he absolutely should? The question is will he? There are a lot of things that Snyder should do that he won't, and that also is beyond disputable. So why will this be any different? Has anyone heard anything from within the organization that would lead to the conclusion that Vinny's neck is on the line? If not, I think it's pretty safe to assume that he'll be around next year, and that it's as likely he'll get a promotion than he'll get fired.

No due to the fact that we are in the middle of the season and Dan himself has not spoken to many OR ANY MEDIA, which is probably smart. He holds the key and the answers, and I'm sure his mind is already made up. Kind of like it is with Zorn IMO.

But I have read several things that stood out. BMitch after meeting with Dan mentioned that he thought this was the end for Vinny. One other thing I recall reading was that when Zorn was hired, if things did not work VINNY would be held accountable. I think it's fair to say things are not working out.

The interview yesterday with Vinny when he is fumbling words all over the place like he gave Zorn a playoff caliber team to work with...? YES. Was he concerned about his job security, ALWAYS. But I don't worry about those things they will work themselves out in the off season...?

I really think he is done. Dan HAS to be smarter than having this guy around ANY LONGER.

Great observations. I think these are things that really have been giving me the gut feeling that Danny is through with Vinny. It was funny to watch VC bumble through that interview, wasn't it. Guy is clueless!

Vinny will get the axe, but as has been pointed out he will probably remain with the club in some capacity......like "Vinnie, get my clubs"

If not, im done. Its too hard to see this team going down each year with no end in sight as long as VC is here.

Seriously, if he remains with the club they had better give him THE most obscure job. Anything --anything-- remotely close to being involved with decision making and I think fans will be royally pissed.

Thanks SkinFanatic.

But the sad, true reality is we have been watching this bumbling idiot for far to long. And yes he is clueless without doubt.

I hope you're right.

My opinion is Vinny will be canned at the end of the season. Vinny takes full responsibility for putting this team together including the coaching staff.

AS far as keeping him around in another capacity I think that would be a horrible idea - he needs to be fully cut off and no longer part of the Redskins. They need to allow the new GM to take full reigns of the team and let him build it completely without any distractions - and keeping Cerrato around would become a distraction as fans really want him out - this is similar to Matt Millen in Detroit - this bridged is so burned that there is no coming back and you need to fully reorganize from top to bottom.

By the way can the boardmasters put a poll up about whether Vinny will be fired at the end of the season?
