Nobody in the last five pages has defended the team. They're indefensible.
I think what you're taking as defending the team is really just several posters who are the types that look forward, not backward. I'm like that myself. Bruce Allen is a piece of shit, but McCloughan is gone, history, spilled milk. I don't cry over it. I'm more interested in what happens next with Cousins, who runs our draft board, and who gets the next GM job.

Don't take it personally but I feel Matt has defended the team as getting rid of a drunk who let his personal life interfere with his professional life. Whereas I feel that's not the case. It seems to me that Bruce couldn't be happy with Scot getting most of the credit for the turnaround job.
It also seems fair to think that if this was a model franchise, Scot would've had his role reduced as much as possible going forward, and then would've been released after the draft. If it truly was the drinking affecting his work, they could've worked together to make a statement about Scot stepping away from the team to get his personal affairs in order. Or if it was a case of Scot and Bruce not seeing eye to eye, announce that working together wasn't going the way they had planned it and it was best for both sides to seperate. I'd be upset but I wouldn't be nearly as upset as I am now.
As it stands now, the Redskins look like the same old shitshow we've come to know over the years. I don't care who they bring in, I have lost nearly all hope that things will ever change as long as Dan/Bruce run the show.
