LL/HTTR is good. Really good. He lives the life I used to live...and miss

If you miss it, why did you move on?

I didn't miss all of it. And I wanted to go on to broader things.

And really I don't know what kind of live he leads, or even who he is. What I know of him he seems like a pretty good dude.

1. Haslett will be fired after this season
-------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
2. Internal discussions on if Raheem should get the job. 3. Some D coaches dont want morris to get the job..want team to go outside org
-------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
so damn frustrating knowing our defensive coaches are privately worried about who the DC should be NEXT year..not like we have a game sun..
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
@jaredkaufman front office is not all on board with Raheem.. split room.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
I didn't even get to the offense and defense infighting that's going on.. Wish all this would just get fixed
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
Aslo on the Pod... #Redskins executive on Shanahan " He is a joke at this point... A real expensive joke"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
Source: Snyder made Shanahan backtrack/spin from his "evaluation" comments.. That explains the awkward Monday presser where Dan was mentioned A lot
----------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
Sunday will be the tell all for this team.. I hope they show up and play well to get the victory. A bad showing will increase the drama.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

LL ‏@HTTR24_7
for the record I have been a Shanahan guy since day 1.Still have hope, feel like a kid being told santa isn't real right about now

I think these past couple weeks has changed the game a bit in terms of Mike. If he allows this type of shit to continue on in and it shows on the field, it would be hard to bring him back. Coaches bickering about who's going to be the DC next year when the season isn't even over? Hey assholes, how about planning for the game this Sunday!!! It's like the coaches have given up as well gathering from these tweets. SMH

One thing that I judge coaches on is how the team responds. Sometimes you really can't go by wins, even though it generally reflects exactly how the team is responding. Many times they can respond very well and talent still not be there to win. That said, there was a difference in how the Skins have played the past two games. The team that played against the Falcons and Giants, aren't the same team that played against the Steelers or the Panthers. Same talent, but definitely not the same desire or fire.

We'll know Sunday. If the Skins lose or get blown out, you can expect it to get worse. I think our only chance is if RGIII rallies this team.

IF this is correct, Im really surprised Shanny wouldnt have a better grasp on the coaching staff and the environment behind the scenes. If there is infighting, sorry, the locker room is lost. Winning cures all, but...

now that NC knows that a vote for Shanny is a vote for The Man at the Warpath, he obviously thinks Shanny should go today, and that Shanahan is responsible for all the woes that have befallen the team not related to DSnyder.

To this extent....yeah. I knew Haslett had lost the defense. I already posted Mike would lose the team just like he did in Denver. But I didn't know he was being called an expensive joke by in- house execs at this point. Obviously I didn't give people in the FO enough credit. They seem to be catching on quicker than in the past. What a situation for our great young QB to be in.

it's not an in house executive

And we all know who the next HC is going to be

At what point do things stop being rumors and become facts with you? Just curious. It's been obvious the team has had individual blowups with no disciplinary action whatsoever. There has been a noticeable lack of intensity the last couple of weeks. Shanahan practically said he was throwing in the towell on the rest of the season no matter how he tried to explain it afterward. SS reported on the friction between Fletch and a couple of other players with Haslett. And SS said he already knew some of this was going on and wasn't surprised by some of the rest. Just curious what it takes for something to stop being a rumor and becoming a fact in your eyes. I heard the economy sucks and unemployment is high....I guess we'll have to wait and see on that one too huh?

Redskin executive then.

SmootSmack · 11-14-2012, 09:53 AM

I will say this. Every team, even the best, has some friction. The best teams are the ones that keep it relatively irrelevant

The Giants are the exception. This is the first year in ages that I don't remember "Coughlin should be fired!" talk at the mid-point of the season, right before they scrape together a playoff or Super Bowl run. Now that they're on a mini-losing streak, maybe they'll start showing up.

Every year it's a mutiny with their fans and media (NY media...it's to be expected).

mredskins · 11-14-2012, 09:56 AM

No matter how you feel about MS and company. Too many sources are reporting that there are issues at the R Park and if you are true Skins fan that is just sad to hear. I was really hoping we were on the right path this go around.
