I'll gladly take a streak of multiple winning seasons, but that won't make me dislike the name any less.

You're right that it happened on his watch, but to me the choice of the name Commanders was more of a Ron Rivera thing than Snyder.
Once he lost the battle of trying to keep the name Redskins, Snyder probably didn't give two shits about what the new name was going to be.
I'm pretty sure there'd be fans complaining about the name Red Tails or Redhawks or whatever other name they would have picked.
