ESPN Redskins beat reporter John Kiem reporting the news.

Guess the key didn't work.

The Redskins are the New Browns. Easily the most dysfunctional franchise in the NFL now.

Well let's be honest here, when he came out last week and said he didn't want Haskins in a round about way the writing was on the wall, " please let me the hell out of this nightmare"!

His decision not to start Haskins was probably his way of "tapping out", I agree. He had to know that would seal his fate.

Go back and look at their draft classes between 2014-2016. I'm stunned he was able to have this team in playoff contention before losing Smith last year. Redskins are a complete dumpster fire in the Front Office.

Jay's first win of the season.

Some team without an OC is gonna get a bargain.

Word's apparently leaked out that Haskins being drafted was another Snyder intervention. The guy runs the Redskins like a 3rd rate fantasy team.

So to recap, the team's record in the Snyder Era is:

Norv Turner 17-12 .586*
Terry Robiskie 1-2 .333*
Marty Schottenheimer 8-8 .500**
Steve Spurrier 12-20 .375
Joe Gibbs 30-34 .469
Jim Zorn 12-20 .375
Mike Shanahan 24-40 .375
Jay Gruden 35-49-1 .418

Overall Record 139-185-1 .429

*Turner / Robiskie were inherited from Cooke.
**Includes a 8-3 record over the last 11 games of his only season. Snyder fired him anyway.

The team is pretty close to having a losing record across its entire history, and that trend has all been due to Snyder.

I'm sure they wanted to get this over before the team shows up today, but given that it was a home game, it seems like they could've just fired him after the game...that way, he never has to show up at the facility today.

It was clearly done for effect. I’ve seen this several cycles with the Redskins under Dan Snyder. The next step is for the organization to badmouth Gruden after he’s gone.

For those unaware, Dan Snyder is perhaps the worst owner in U.S. pro sporting leagues. It’s a bit dated, but still a great resource to review Snyder’s misadventures is:
