Interesting take on things, but it applies to the Skins, in that the whole thing seems to be always in chaos, but with a certain level of excitement after the new HC or QB is brought in, but it only takes 3-4 seasons to the whole thing starting over again.

I think thats a by product that Snyder can take comfort in, but the guy is a true fan - i think he would pay an insane amount of money to win a championship. He has actually tried to in the past. Not sure i buy the whole meal ticket cash cow thing with Griff. DS was swimming in it a long time ago. He wants a championship.
