In the early internet days, you would call it "click bait". But yet's that's exactly what Chris Russell and his peers did after the Green Bay game.
I mean no disrespect to Russell, he is plugged in and knows his shit and many times he is the first to break legit stories that no one else even knew of / had early access to. It's kind of like the boy who cried wolf, in a way. One day, years down the road, there will be real, legit news of Bruce retiring / being fired, etc., and we won't believe it. Because we have been burned so many times in the past.

You may be right, because Snyder is an idiot owner who keeps sycophants such as Bruce Allen around to suck up fan hatred and vitriol AND to suck up to him. However, the team has just had a historically terrible season. 3 wins is not “damn close” to anything and even Snyder can see that (although he may ignore it as he has done before). The team is going backwards, it is easy for anyone to see that the fan base is disappearing. I was at the game today and in my section their were about twice as many Eagles as Redskins fans. Even with the massive influx of Eagles fans, the stadium was 30% or more empty. This has happened every game this year.
So what MAY be different this year?
1. No real NFL-qualified HC candidate will come here with BA in any capacity on this team. 10 years of failure under different coaches shows that it is impossible to win with BA around. Since Washington is considered the WORST location to go to for the eight or nine teams to be looking HC’s, it’s the candidates that are in the drivers seat NOT Snyder. I believe that the best candidates will tell Snyder TO HIS FACE, that getting rid of BA and other changes will be necessary to even CONSIDER this horrible franchise.
2. Whether this season or in the future, the NFL will tell Snyder to fix this franchise’s many problems. The NFL television cameras may ignore and try to obscure the empty stadium or massive opposing team’s infiltration but it can’t do so forever. IF just one game DIDN’T have 30,000-40,000 yelling fans from the other team, the stadium might be just 30% full of REDSKINS fans. That’s impossible for the NFL to ignore. Snyder is the NFL joke and fool but if the fan support continues to deteriorate it makes the NFL look bad. Even he must worry about that although I’m sure BA is telling him the team is “damn close” to getting better. Lol.
We’ll know soon. I’m very cautiously optimistic that BA will be gone.
