Trouble in Redskins Park?

Allen insulted and belittled Scot by issuing him a gag order. That does not bode well for their relationship.

Do we know that's a true statement? Couldn't it be that SM didn't want to spend time answering redundant questions, and that BA was the person to do it? (I mean I can certainly see a no-nonsense GM wanting to pass the press off to a figure head guy, and then letting the figure head claim that he made the decisision)

Well, I would say if that's the case, then McCloughan and Allen should have made a joint statement to the media stating as such and squashing any rumors that there's some bad blood between the two. With them being silent on the subject (McCloughan having no choice) just keeps fueling the rumor mill and that is not a distraction you want going around at Redskins Park.

We all agree that McCloughan is not the problem, and there is pressure on everybody to make this coming year a success. But the more that the front office stays silent on this story, the more rumors will start flying. Such as McCloughan's drinking, the power struggle, Dan Snyder not being behind Kirk Cousins, etc.... the Post is having a field day and will continue to do so until someone from the front office comes out and sets the record straight. Until then, I can't help but to think what's being said is true.
