Bruce Allen was still running staff meetings. One telling sign: Owner Dan Snyder kept those in the organization — including Allen — in the dark about his plans, which was a bad sign. When those two stopped being spotted at practice together, it was over. https://t.co/uv6H5chtyc

The #Redskins are making Ron Rivera their new coach and giving him a 5-year deal, sources say. A big commitment.

Not only is Ron Rivera the new HC, former defensive great, and DC of the Raiders Jack Del Rio has been named defensive coordinator. Not sure how the offense will pan out but based on these two hires, the Redskins are going to be a VERY stingy team defensively!

I actually agree. They should be able to build a stout defense.
