[quote=NC_Skins;860344]The fact he was benched for a rookie, and is being outplayed by said rookie makes your point null and invalid. Try again.[/quote]

Rypien went to shit after he won us the SB, and Doug Williams lost his mojo also. The point isn't null at all. If you got treated like dirt like MS and the Skins treated Donovan, you might lose your mojo as well, or Donovan just hit the wall, like Ryp and Doug. Either way NC, my last sentence in my post stands. Donovan last season was way better than Rex or John this season.

[quote=SmootSmack;860345]I still can't remember when Shanahan hyped up Beck to be any sort of franchise QB[/quote]

I think the last time I heard it was about 3 minutes before Mike benched Beck lol!!

[quote=Slingin Sammy 33;860101]Well put. I wouldn't say playoffs or "off with their heads", but there needs to be [B]a significant (4+ Win) improvement[/B] next year.[/quote]I think this is a good, easily identifiable baseline.

Now, I'm thinking that 8-8 or 9-7 next year probably doesn't do anything to make me feel better on the Shanahan hire: pretty much anyone with common sense can build an average football team in three years. The draft order basically does that for you. But I think that improvement would mean the Redskins are (finally) on the right track. With how soft the schedule has been this year, there's no way for this team to get to 8 wins without dramatically improving the team over the next offseason.
