When you feel the need to declare that your organization's culture is "damn good," said culture is probably damn bad.
The Washington Redskins have been an embarrassment for the vast majority of this century, and when team president Bruce Allen spoke of that supposed "damn good culture" in October, he further embarrassed himself and his employer.
At the time, the Redskins were 0-5. They hadn't—and still haven't—won a playoff game since 2005, and they hadn't—and still haven't—sniffed the postseason since 2015. Their star left tackle, Trent Williams, was—and still is—refusing to play after he felt the team's medical staff mistreated him, and the front office mistakenly called Williams' bluff.
