I think Snyder is a guy who is doing things over and over again while expecting different results, even though he's done it so many times before and things haven't turned out any different. eg ) This guy didn't win, i'll fire him and the next coach will win. This coach didn't win, i'll fire him and start over. I'll fire the whole staff and start over....etc...etc...

So instead you would rather JJ who thinks Garrett is the next Landry?

Firing a guy for not winning happens EVERY year in the NFL to around 6-8 coaches.

He's definitely NOT doing the same thing over and over, he's tried every angle for hiring a coach you could do:
bought the team:

• Keep current coach - Turner [2 years]
• Fire midseason hire interim (never again say i) [3 games]
• hire ancient chinese secret guy (Probably his best move, and if his ego let Schottenheimer stay two more years a whole different tune would be said) [1 year]
• hire best up and coming college guy (worked this yr for the iggles ) [2 years]
• hire team legend and football legend (again, might've worked but for ST21's death and JG's son's health) [4 years and JG decision to leave]
• Let fans dictate(ie not hire Fassel), and listen to trusted advisor who is an idiot(never again say i) [2 years]
• hire out of work SB winning coach who wants a fresh start (this was the closest to the doing the same thing over and over, but he had to bring in a son of a legend (Allen) instead of wrapping it all up in JG) [3 1/2 of them miserable years - outlasted the other miserables by 1 1/2 years]
• let GM(football guy) pick his guy, who is a sought after coordinator with a winning history and make sure the initials match a Redskins legend. (this one is the lucky one. [5+ hopefully]

my points are:
1) DS has tried every method of getting the right guy
2) the last 10 years he has shown himself more patient. The only exception is Zorn, but if he had kept Zorn into year 3 Fedex would have seen riots.

I just think it's wrong to say Snyder isn't evolving. It's just that growing into a good NFL owner rarely happens quickly.
