“(Bruce Allen) couldn’t have been less self-aware if he showed up to the press conference nude.” -@notthefakeSVP pic.twitter.com/J4VsKB8nM2

I’ve never been as hopeless as a #Redskins fan as I am right now. That press conference yesterday just crushed me. There’s no hope.

BA is very transparent so far--"Doug and Kyle have done a great job with the draft."...."Bill is implementing a new plan with new schedules."....."check Doug's time card, he's here all the time....BA & Dan believe that this franchise mess is all Jay's fault. #Redskins

The Redskins have to realize who and what they have become. Nearly 30 years from the last Super Bowl appearance. 14 years since last playoff win. They are not the same franchise. There is no trust/faith by the fan base. The Nats/Caps are good. Alternatives exist.

“Daniel Snyder is the most loathed owner by his fans of any owner in the NFL and perhaps of any owner of any sports team in the United States...I mean Dan Snyder for his own good really oughta sell the team. He just should. This is a total embarrassment.” @peter_king on #Redskins

You don’t think Dan ASKED Louis Riddick if he would be interested in the GM job? No way Dan throws his name in there without getting a yes.....
This is Louis giving the green-light to Dan Snyder! pic.twitter.com/giQ5nsubQr
Talented QB prospects who get drafted by teams that are culturally sound and have a plan and harmony between the front office and coaches thrive. The one's who get drafted by teams who don't have those things struggle. There may not be much more to it than that.

This is a good point to remember. #Redskins might appear to kick into action this Sunday under Bill Callahan, but remember that the Dolphins are tanking and have given up a league-worst 175.8 rushing yards per game along with 296.3 passing yards per game. https://t.co/NMW6oKB3GV
— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) October 8, 2019
One of the few bright spots of this #Redskins season so far has been rookie WR Terry McLaurin. He had yet another strong performance, this time against Pats CB Gilmore. Post coming on him later this week pic.twitter.com/gIwhtq6lSa
— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) October 8, 2019
Been studying the #Redskins run game this morning, it’s terrible right now. No push or movement up front, nobody getting to the second level, unblocked defenders roaming free, stunts not being picked up. Callahan wants this to be the identity of the team

#Redskins brass may have released those videos of their head coach before firing him. Media may never know the truth. But people in league circles will. They did a smear campaign on McCloughan, too. Don't see how you expect anyone good to accept the job.

Tomlin asked about being a preferred candidate for the Redskins job:
— Brooke Pryor (@bepryor) October 8, 2019
“I'm the head coach of a 1-4 football team that's going on the road to play a Hall of Fame quarterback with a third-string quarterback. Do you think I'm worried about anything other than that?”
.@DeAngeloHall23 pod: "Coach Callahahan and Jay Gruden really didn't get along, to the point that Jay went in there and said, 'It's either me or Coach Callahan,' last year."

Vinny Cerrato: .431 #Redskins winning %
Bruce Allen: .359 #Redskins winning %
If #Redskins win all of their last 11 games, Bruce Allen will STILL have a lower win percentage than Vinny Cerrato. Let that sink in.
Few people I've talked to over the last week:
— George Carmi (@Gcarmi21) October 9, 2019
"Jack Del Rio will want to be a #Redskins Coach or Defensive Coordinator...."
Look to the right of Ryan Clark https://t.co/OvJTpbt4y6
If Gruden was let go because he was coming up short as a coach, how is Greg Manusky still employed?https://t.co/0J4piHUUnS
— NBC Sports Redskins (@NBCSRedskins) October 8, 2019
People in the know already know how toxic #Redskins building is structured. I know there's only 32 Head Coach in the NFL jobs available. But a coordinator spot anywhere else looks so much safer to me.
— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) October 8, 2019
Talked to source who said Washington’s front office is a mess and bears responsibility for results. Also said that if it was Dan Snyder and Bruce Allen who fired Gruden, that Allen is probably safe. Ended by saying, “Bruce has done it before. He’s done it in Oakland and Tampa.”

Close fouth place would be Sean Payton just for all of the different ways he manages to run the same shield screen to Michael Thomas from the 2-yard line.
Chad, I'm with you on this. I've said this a few times already and most people just laugh it off...but I think it's true

Vegas has the Patriots as 16.5 point favorites right now against the Giants on Thursday night, but given all of New York’s injuries, I’d expect that line to rise to 18.1 by kickoff.

The #Chiefs are signing veteran DT Terrell McClain, source said. Ninth-year vet spent last season with the #Falcons, and this past offseason with the #Cardinals. Now heads to KC, which needs help with Chris Jones and Xavier Williams both expected to miss time with injuries.
— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) October 8, 2019
In addition to WR Sterling Shepard being out Thursday at New England and RB Saquon Barkley being unlikely to play, there’s also a real chance the Giants will be without TE Evan Engram, who is dealing with a sprained MCL, per source. It’ll be a challenge for Engram to play at NE.

It really is bizarre that Richard Sherman would insist that Baker Mayfield didn't shake Sherman's hand when video clearly shows otherwise. Did Sherman simply forget? Or did he fabricate it without realizing that there inevitably would be video that contradicts him?
