Why do you think Gruden is fired in the next year or 2? Second, if I'm not mistaken and could very well be, isn't Gruden in his last contract year or does he have 1 more? Depending on the contract, he may very well be gone after this season which would be very unfortunate for everyone in the organization.
If Snyder doesn't want to sell, then he must part with Bruce Allen sooner than later to risk losing a complete fan base. A smart business person would have to realize his product is currently inferior, tainted by approach and in need of R & R, (repair & reconfiguration) to improve, stimulate and re-energize the fan base. Let's hope something is being done behind the scenes to start this process.
I think Gruden is gone in a year or 2 because A) I dont believe in Alex Smith and we are stuck with him for 3 years. B) Snyder always has a fall guy.
I am starting to think the Skins have a decent year though. Maybe 9-10 wins even but there wont be an SB aspirations.
The thing about Snyder is I believe he has already lost a lot of the fan base. I was just down in Charles County this past week.... My brother in law and family are all in on the Nats and Caps. They are also all in on Sundays for boating, fishing for rock fish, crabbing, and duck hunting. Similar to what Shark always says they are just finding something different to do on Sundays.
Snyder will try to re-energize the new fan base with Alex Smith, firing Bruce Allen, firing Gruden and getting a new HC. We've seen this act play out many times, only this time many of the fans have caught on.
If it wasnt for profit sharing I believe Snyder would have sold the team by now. As it is he continues to profit as the local team flounders.
