If you want to be upset when we're 1-4 and have no offensive gameplan that's one thing, but all this "jump off a bridge" mentality now is, to me, pathetic. Look, I know people don't like it when I say it but I' truly believe that if we are indeed the laughingstock of the league-which I don't agree with-it's due in large part to the fact that the majority of Redskins fans have no clue and have no patience. Much less than for most other teams.
People say he has no clue, but they themselves really have no clue why they are saying that. They named coordinators before they chose a head coach so he has no clue? Never mind that other teams have picked coaches before the head coach. He hasn't hired a General Manager so he has no clue? How many people have really paid attention to the team's scouting department and all the strong work Scott Campbell has done in building the team over the past several years? And now he's being rewarded for it. The whole coaching search? Assumptions all over the place. And then people turning it into "Well Snyder said..." NO. Snyder never said anything. It's just that people want to assume, they want to speculate. They insist on the Redskins having patience, but refuse to have any themselves.
And where things get dangerous, as I've also said before, is when Snyder forgets that he is no longer just a fan and adopts that same desperate mentality. But I think in recent years he has fully realized that he is the owner, not just some fan, and has acted as such.
And look I'm not happy with the results on the field overall the past several years. I want us to win as often and as much as anyone else here, but I also realize that it's a marathon not a sprint, and that it's ridiculous to think that 31 teams are in better shape than we are.

first off,no one would say seasons over-8-8 at best because of speculation in january,they say that when were 5-7 and our coach is calling wrong timeouts and our best player was just murdered
2nd off,were not considered laughing stocks because of redskin fans showing no patience,its because of ownership and front office,that statement couldnt be further from the truth
3rd-so what if other teams have hired other coaches before the head coach,that doesnt make it a smart move
4th-never said 31 other teams are better off than us,I dont believe that,but right now 31 other teams look like they know what the hell they are doing{with the exception of the raiders,and thats a maybe}
5th-in recent yrs he did seem to have that mentality,but only the gibbs yrs,before that,no,after that,another no
