Sure, he has an opinion about what he wants. Guy paid a bazillion dollars for the team, writes a few million in paychecks every week - you know what, he's entitled.

Does he emasculate his coach in prime time? Is he wheeling an injured RGIII around on the sideline like the Atlanta owner did with Vick way back when?

I am just not convinced that Snyder's "meddling" is anymore than most owners in this league.

Gruden held Griffin out, even though he was physically ready for the Cowboys game. If Snyder wanted to meddle, THAT was the time to meddle. Gruden
said "Colt starts" and Colt started.

Gruden is going to get his opportunity. So far, so good. Fire Hazlett and so much the better.

vent over.

I think people are just frustrated with the past 15 years of Snyder. They want someone to blame for our unsatisfactory performance during his tenure. We haven't had a great season since the death of Jack Kent Cooke. There has been a pattern of Snyder over riding decisions and acting as GM and -allegedly- as coach over the years, and it's made people cynical and skeptical of every decision any coach makes past present and future. It doesn't help that we have ESPN adding fuel to the flames.

I'm grateful for Jay Gruden though. He's very direct and appears honest and improving with every game. We need a franchise coach just as badly if not more so than a franchise quarterback.
