As a fan, do you think Dan Snyder loves the fans?

— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) October 18, 2022

Poll question #2:

As fan, would Dan Snyder selling the team make you happier?

— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) October 18, 2022

Fans spent the whole offseason calling this man a liquored up drug addict nincompoop;

He is now their hero. https://t.co/5t0PQXjJGq

Important phrase at the end of Jim Irsay’s comments about removing Dan Snyder from ownership: “And we have complete authority to do that.”

Tanya Snyder is representing the Commanders at today's NFL owners' meeting in New York, source says. The meeting is under way and she is inside the room.

#Commanders fans (myself included) when Jim Irsay threw shade on Carson Wentz all offseason: "Whatta tool Irsay is!"#Commanders fans (myself included) when Irsay became the first NFL owner to say there's merit to removing Dan Snyder as #Commanders owner: "Jim, you my dawg!"

— Al Galdi (@AlGaldi) October 18, 2022

I believe this is the first time an NFL owner has said something like this publicly about Dan Snyder.

This is big. https://t.co/fE6kBJ3ohC

— Scott Abraham (@Scott7news) October 18, 2022

And in a lot of ways Irsay is the perfect owner to come out against Snyder - the Colts owner has plenty of public baggage, and in turn, probably little to hide.

— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) October 18, 2022

I wonder where the Jim Irsay statue will be in the new stadium

From NFL Now: Jerry Jones is still behind #Commanders owner Daniel Snyder, and unless that changes, not much else will. pic.twitter.com/rcSgQToXGZ

Asked about Dan Snyder, Jerry Jones said “It’s a media issue more than an ownership issue.”

— Mike Jones (@ByMikeJones) October 18, 2022

Patriots owner Robert Kraft asked what he thinks the other owners think of Dan Snyder: “You’re gonna have to ask them.”

— Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) October 18, 2022

Absolute terrible question.

Ask him directly his thought!

— BJL1906 (@Big_John_1906) October 18, 2022

To remove an NFL owner, you need 24 of the 32 other NFL owners to vote that owner out.

Right now, on the record, there is one vote.

Jim Irsay

23 more to go

— Scott Abraham (@Scott7news) October 18, 2022

To be clear, the Colts @JimIrsay is not the only person who wants Dan Snyder out of the NFL. He is just the first one to say it on the record.

— Judy Battista (@judybattista) October 18, 2022

#Browns owner Jimmy Haslam said he was not aware Jim Irsay would make his Dan Snyder comments and that he's waiting on Mary Jo White’s investigation before making determinations.
“It’s premature for anybody to make any comments,” he said. “We need to follow the process.”

— Jeremy Fowler (@JFowlerESPN) October 18, 2022

Couple tidbits as we start the day:
--One of the Snyders' planes went from Chicago to London for the weekend after Thursday's game, per a source. It landed in NYC this morning.
--Any discussion about Snyder is expected to take place later today (in the 5 pm hour).

— michael phillips (@michaelpRTD) October 18, 2022

Hey Im not just a anonymous source, I am a beloved and widely followed twitter account, a scholar and a gentleman! PS, Tanya's jet took off too and will be landing at Teterboro airport soon!

Q: Do you think Daniel Snyder is good for the league?

Goodell: I feel that everyone deserves the opportunity to prove the facts.

— Kimberley A. Martin (@ByKimberleyA) October 18, 2022

Dan Snyder right now: pic.twitter.com/n6vL43E8WZ

— Tae & Todd Commanders Podcast (@TaeNToddPodcast) October 19, 2022

My immediate take: Goodell is mad Irsay broke ranks now but that won’t mean much once this report comes out.

— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) October 18, 2022

This isn’t Ace Ventura or Columbo, doggedly pursuing the truth for truth’s sake. It sure sounds like the NFL is throwing itself an alley oop to dunk on Snyder

— Thomas Witbeck (@twitbeck3) October 19, 2022

Just in: Attorneys for former Washington employees are threatening legal action against the NFL after ESPN claimed Dan Snyder used the Wilkinson investigation to form a "tip sheet." They want to hear back from Roger Goodell: pic.twitter.com/c434P03el5

Sam Howell from today. https://t.co/lDJwKXXCfA

— John Keim (@john_keim) October 18, 2022

Good stuff here about Howell’s footwork. Was clear to see in preseason that his drops/hitch steps weren’t always in sync with the routes he was looking to throw to. Important fundamental for him to work on. https://t.co/t9R2HGibxq

— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) October 18, 2022

Washington is only 1 game out of the wildcard that’s wild because as bad as it’s been they still have a pulse.

CB William Jackson III denied reports that he wants to be traded.

— John Keim (@john_keim) October 18, 2022

William Jackson III: "It's been adversity, for sure. But that's part of the game. I was asked to do different things, you know, so I'm just trying to get accustomed with the zone thing, still getting that together, but it's coming together slowly and surely."

— michael phillips (@michaelpRTD) October 18, 2022

Two things:
1) Chase Young will see Dr. Andrews later this week; if all goes well he practices next week.
2) A decision on Carson Wentz/IR will be made at the end of the week, following 3 days of rehab so Dr.'s have a better idea of how long it'll take.

— John Keim (@john_keim) October 18, 2022

Reading this made me realize how many fans have given up on Chase Young. What is it about his performance that made y'all think he wasn't good? https://t.co/97C4107ddI

Mac Jones' relationship with #Patriots has 'gotten sideways'

"Wait a second, 'why are you hiring a defensive coach as my offensive coordinator?'"

There comes a point in an ultra-successful quarterback's career where he ceases to be a professional football player and becomes an utterly bats**t celebrity famebrain. Russell Wilson crossed that Rubicon a while ago, but it took a move to Denver to make it obvious.
