Allen is not the problem. Snyder is, but you cannot fire the owner.

LOL! I used to work in DC and the radio stations suck for whatever reason...except after a Redskins loss. Pure entertainment on sports talk radio with all these people calling in complaining...fire Bruce Allen...then the Redskins win one and the announcers start talking Super Bowl...until the upcoming weeks loss...rinse and repeat!

Team carries a curse because of legal battle that transferred ownership from the Cooke family to Snyder.

What curse? In 30 years as a fan I have never heard of a cooke- snyder curse. Just some crap about Daniel getting a tribe to bless the skins just before both quarterback got broken legs during the same game. Dan, thet was no blessing, You really need to get your money back.

Yeah, rumor had it that Allen was going to be moved to the non-player side of things to help procure land and support for a new stadium. I guess Snyder took the hint and sacked Allen completely. Now the pot is swirling that they want Urban Meyer to fill Allen's desk and bring in Ron Rivera as head coach, after the Panthers sacked him.

And people in Hell want ice water.

Ditto for the Cowboys, in fact I predict that Jason Garrett will be coaching the Giants next year, and he'll have success in New York, because finally he'll get to pick his assistant coaches and players.

I predict the Giants hire Garrett this week, as soon as his Cowboys contract expires.

I thought Rivera to the Redskins was a done deal.
