the Washington leaders They are just one win away from reaching Super Bowl LIX, as they head to Philadelphia to take on the NFC East rival Eagles in the NFC Championship game on Sunday.
He was more than just a quick turnaround for this franchise, as a quarterback Jayden Danielsthe team's No. 2 overall pick, and a new coaching staff headed by Dan Quinn, have completely energized the Leaders to the point where they could be competing for the Vince Lombardi Trophy in New Orleans next month.
But it seems like one person in particular doesn't like watching this amazing NFL story. That's because he owned the team.

ESPN reports Dan Snyder, the disgraced former owner of the Commanders, doesn't like to see the franchise succeed without him.
The report states that while having dinner with colleagues in London, where he lives most of the time now, it was natural for the leaders to be brought up in conversation. When one of those teammates returned stateside, one of their teammates asked what Snyder thought of the team, which also had a first-year general manager in Adam Peters building a roster that was then playing well during the regular season.

“He hates it,” Snyder's colleague told his colleague.
Snyder sold leaders under duress, as major scandals surrounding workplace culture, including sexual harassment and a toxic work environment, were exposed. NFL investigation were conducted which produced results that supported these claims, leading to pressure from all directions to sell.
Snyder eventually sold the franchise he had controlled since May 1999 for a record $6 billion to Josh Harris and a group of limited partners, including David Blitzer, who together own the NBA's Philadelphia 76ers and the NHL's New Jersey Devils. Magic Johnson is also in the ownership group.
While he did not want to sell the franchise, Snyder was subject to pressure from fellow owners, with whom he was not in good standing in the first place. There were even reports in 2022 that Snyder had told some of those close to him that he had dirt on commissioner Roger Goodell and his fellow owners, including Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys.

“They can't s— with me,” Snyder reportedly said, according to ESPN.
But the sale went through after Harris secured about 20 partners to put up capital, and the experienced sports team owner set out to change the culture within the team on all fronts. This seems to be going faster than expected in terms of performance.
Peters and the rest of the organization appear to have hit the nail on the head, with Daniels, a Heisman Trophy winner from LSU, showing poise, leadership and a clutch play to go along with what can clearly be seen at the net: a dual-threat quarterback who is quickly becoming a star.
Not only did the Commanders go 12-5 during the regular season to earn a Wild Card spot, they didn't just down the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on the road to win their first playoff game since 1999 — the year Snyder purchased the team. a team. They had the upset of the year, dropping 45 points on the Detroit Lions to beat the No. 1 seed in the NFC on the road at Ford Field, shocking a team that many thought was headed to New Orleans.
Washington is looking for its first Super Bowl appearance since 1991, a game it won after going 14-2 during the regular season. While the leaders focus on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Stadium in the third meeting with the Eagles this season, the future is certainly bright, as this is only the first year of an entirely new system.
Meanwhile, ESPN reported that Snyder was selling his US real estate holdings and running most of his business from the UK. They also have sources saying he wants to buy a Premier League football club, but he is not expected to own a sports team anytime soon.

ESPN adds that Snyder is “in denial” about what led to pressure on him to sell, and a person close to him says he feels “sad — for himself.”
“It's killing him… it's destroying him,” the person said.
The Leaders kick off against Saquon Barkley and the Eagles on Sunday at 3pm to determine who will represent the NFC in Super Bowl LIX.
