The Daily Twitter: 20 December 2019

The Redskins are now just 2 games over .500, so they might finish the season at .500 for the first time in a long time.

Here is the franchise's all-time winning percentage at the end of every season. pic.twitter.com/u3wGgwfem4

From people around #Redskins Park, the direction it seems to be going suggests Bruce Allen is going to be reassigned, @EBJunkies says. https://t.co/MpiDbuwpHK

Another sad note: the #Redskins have finished 3rd or worse in the NFC East in 25 of the last 32 seasons. https://t.co/tADdyYtr7s

Deleting previous (incorrect) scheduling tweet.

Correct info:
Redskins finish third place: at Chicago and vs Falcons/Panthers

Skins finish fourth: at Lions and vs Falcons/Panthers

The Redskins are also sitting on an eight-game losing streak in NFC East games, if those things matter to you.

Since 2010, there have been eight rookie receivers who have earned an 80 grade or higher. Those names include Odell Beckham Jr., Michael Thomas, Mike Evans, and Stefon Diggs.

McLaurin’s grade of 85.1 ranks eighth among the 92 wideouts who have run 250 or more routes this year. https://t.co/rAe0HHVUH0

It's always been the head coach's ultimate call, but I was referencing who was being talked to upstairs. Bruce was involved in that process. I've since followed up and it seems he is not anymore.

My apologies for any confusion. I shouldn't have definitive w/out double checking.

Under Jay, Bruce was on the headset as he watched replays. This was something Jay talked about openly.

Bruce is still in the booth, but after circling back on the current process I was told Callahan consults with coaches in the booth, which wouldn't include Bruce, then decides.

— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) December 19, 2019

He is the "rules expert" in the booth. Has good working knowledge of the rule book and jumps on headset when there are rules questions I believe.

After not playing for almost a year @D__Johnson10 had a breakout game in Week 15. @GabeAHenderson asked him about his journey to get back on the field and more in this @Ticketmaster one-on-one. pic.twitter.com/1pyFL9p9hN

.@D__Johnson10 recorded 9 solo tackles over his first 14 NFL games.

He matched that total against the Eagles in his first game in nearly a year.https://t.co/1jB800PLhK

The NFL, a league of roughly 70 percent black players, has only three permanent black head coaches. (thread)

So if Bieniemy gets a head coaching gig, Embree might be somebody to watch to join his staff https://t.co/PvaQXi6bZT

Williams has been pretty vocal about black offensive coaches becoming head coaches. He’s also talked a bunch about those coaches possibly coaching black QBs.

Firing a GM in Year 2 'would be the ultimate knee-jerk reaction, a sign of severe dysfunction, and an acceptance of the kind of instability they've always tried to avoid.'

Joe Theismann says Todd McShay’s comments about the Redskins being the worst job in the NFL are “irresponsible.”
Theismann: I have to question the research that was done into other franchises.

Dan Snyder hired Bruce Allen with three games left in 2009. Only two remain in 2019. *If* change is coming, why isn’t Allen out already? It’s a race to add available talent and Washington is letting valuable time escape. Jags fired Tom Coughlin yesterday. https://t.co/lORWTeLz4N
