BillsFan4 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) https://www.nbcsports.com/washington/redskins/sources-redskins-team-president-bruce-allen-will-be-out-running-football-ops-monday Quote DALLAS — Redskins team president Bruce Allen will be out of running the team’s football operations by Monday, multiple sources with knowledge of the situation informed NBC Sports Washington. A Redskins spokesperson was not immediately available for comment. The team is traveling to Dallas for its final game of the season. This is a developing story as Allen’s role within the organization runs beyond just football and it’s unclear what other changes will happen but the immediate news is that after a decade in charge of the Redskins on the field Allen will no longer serve that role. About time, if true. Edited December 30, 2019 by BillsFan4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flomoe Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 He should take Snyder with him. It really doesn’t matter who the GM or Coach are as long as Snyder keeps destroying that franchise.......similar to the Jones’ running the show in Dallas. Al Davis basically did the same thing in Oakland and only won anything before collective bargaining and free agency. Bad owners(seeRalph)(god bless him for keeping the franchise in Buffalo) will destroy teams if they aren’t fully committed to building and keeping successful teams. Detroit is the ultimate example of a franchise that could care less about success but cares more about profit. Buffalo would have been in that same sentence without Polians’ influence. Good football people that can overrule the “genius” of the owner are the smartest people in the game! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 He was in Tampa during the Gruden years and was a rubber stamp for Gruden. It was the reason why why McKay left Tampa for Atlanta. This should have happened years ago. As far as Snyder, I believe he is worse than Jerrah and that is saying a lot. Thank god for the Pegulas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 Could Marvin Lewis resurface as Washington’s head coach? Posted by Mike Florio on December 28, 2019, 12:43 PM EST Last year, Marvin Lewis became a surprise firing in Cincinnati, given the belief (mistaken, as it turned out) that he was under contract for 2019. This year, he could become a surprise hiring, in Washington. Alex Marvez of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports, and PFT has confirmed, that Lewis is a serious contender to become the next coach in Washington. Marvez suggests that Lewis may have already interviewed for the job with owner Daniel Snyder. Lewis, who joined former NFL head coach Herm Edwards at Arizona State this season, seemed to have moved on from the NFL, saying he doesn’t miss the pro game and doesn’t envision returning to it. Of course, it’s easy to feel that way when the phone isn’t ringing. With Washington interested in Lewis, Lewis seems to be interested in Washington. Lewis has a connection to Washington. He served as defensive coordinator and assistant head coach there in 2002 under Steve Spurrier. In 2003, Lewis became head coach of the Bengals, a job he held for 16 years. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2019/12/28/could-marvin-lewis-resurface-as-washingtons-head-coach/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurman#1 Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 It's only a first step. But it's a good one. It still begs the question of whether winning is possible there under that owner. Maybe not. 8 hours ago, Bills Oil Company said: Except for Offensive Coordinator Yeah, maybe. Though IMO Daboll will have to have another good year for teams to entirely buy in on him.

It took them time to learn how to be owners of a sports franchise. The LaFontane hire blew up in their face and were left with his GM, Tim Murray, who destroyed the tank job by giving away all the high draft picks and prospects like he was a drunken sailor on payday. The Botterill hire is slowly starting to pay dividends as he’s trying to build the depth back up starting in Rochester. 13 hours ago, tcampbell104 said: i think terry and kim learned to stay away from the football operations after the rex ryan debacle. something snyder never learned I agree. I know Terry got a lot of advice from Bill Polian which helped lead the Pegula’s in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan4 Posted December 30, 2019 Author Share Posted December 30, 2019 https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2019/12/30/bruce-allen-out-in-washington/ Quote “As this season concludes, Bruce Allen has been relieved of his duties as President of the Washington Redskins and is no longer with the organization,” Snyder said in a statement. “Like our passionate fan base, I recognize we have not lived up to the high standards set by great Redskins teams, coaches and players who have come before us. As we reevaluate our team leadership, culture and process for winning football games, I am excited for the opportunities that lie ahead to renew our singular focus and purpose of bringing championship football back to Washington D.C.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
