Snyder's "apology"

diehardskin2982 · 11-03-2009, 06:43 PM

Snyder is facing a full assault from the Washington media, both the newspapers, TV stations and "the fan" radio station. These things can influence public perception of him. Either put the fire out, or fuel it for ratings. If you live in the area, you know which route that they have taken. He is perceived as a vermin around DC and that is unfortunate. I think he will make the changes needed in the offseason and fully clean house. This is years in the making and I think he understands that Vinny has to go. G. Williams should have been promoted it and a real GM should have been brought here. It is that simple.

Isn't 'he' a part of 'we'?

You guys really expect an owner, CEO, etc to come out and say "This is all my fault blah blah" or what? That's what Joe Gibbs was for... it ain't happening, get over it.

The most you'll get out of him is "We've brought in somebody to oversee football operations and be the hands-on guy to turn this team around." or whatever.

Aman couldn't have said it better.

If he's really sorry he'll send us a dozen red stemmed Chris Polians. Of course there are other varieties and they will be more then acceptable, but continuing to water that sorry excuse for a GM Cerrato will continue to be unacceptable.

don't you mean that's what zorn is for, and as for all the "we" talk it's just old danny showing his style of leadership and what this team needs and lacks acountability, and until we have that from top to bottom we aren't going anywhere and as much as we all would love to think this is rock bottom hold on to your seats cause you ain't seen nothing yet, just wait til dec 6 that's gonna be ugly

I agree. It was obvious from the start he is upset about the way we've played, but people should just be happy he came out and said something. I wouldn't give a crap if he never talked to the media, as long as he did something about it. Actions speak louder than words, which is why I don't care what Dan Snyder says as long as he does something about the state of this franchise.

Well at first Zorn kept talking about execution. Now when everything isn't his fault he takes the blame. However I still blame him for not activating Marko Mitchell. It's one of those things were Zorn really should be a martyr, but not to the extent that he is now.

i would kill some one to see marko mitchell on the feild although he would be miss used, like the eagles game when we threw a fade to randle el, i really hope we keep and use marko he has the potential to be a game breaker just gotta get him on the field

I'll accept your apology as soon as you fire vinny and zorn and let the next coach and GM run the team, and not yourself, along with getting draft picks and drafting for need and not want.

ds is the reason for both of those problems since he is the one who puts all the peices in place
