VIDEO: Dan Snyder and GM Bruce Allen Speed Out of Stadium After Redskins' Loss to Patriots
By Adam Weinrib
Was...was losing to the undefeated Patriots at home with Colt McCoy under center somehow the last straw for the folks in charge of the Redskins? After the most predictable defeat in league history, and a game in which they actually held Tom Brady down for the first half, GM Bruce Allen and owner Dan Snyder sped out of FedEx Field far faster than they usually would. Got to beat that traffic somehow!

No word on whether they were both hightailing it to the same place to promptly fire head coach Jay Gruden, but they missed the quippy press conference of a lifetime from a man firmly on the hot seat.

Cool.
Dwayne Haskins is a rookie, Colt McCoy is barely recovered from a devastating (and mistreated) injury, and Alex Smith isn't walking through that door.
We're not sure why this was Allen and Snyder's breaking point, but change could be on the horizon.
