[QUOTE=Mattyk;1047242]Worst mistake of the Shanahan era? Leaking stories to the media to save his ass and deflect blame. We can't get rid of this guy soon enough.[/QUOTE]

Has it been comfirmed that he did leak it

No but it's pretty obvious. Where else would this stuff be coming from.

Yeah that's true , what a crazy bad turn a round this has been. Like I said maybe McNabb was a little right about mike

Re: Worst Mistake of the Shanahan Era
 

Worst Mistake of the Shanahan era? Mike Shanahan. That's the worst mistake. Yes, I defended him and respected him a lot - that's past tense. I have no respect for Mike Shanahan now. Might as well go ahead and fire him this week. Fire him today. Get it over with already. Give me a reason to think this franchise is eager to right the ship.

Well if the 'skins had Peyton Manning behind this offensive line, he'd be on the sidelines for half of the season.

Not to mention this defense being so bad that you'd see the 'skins playing catch up in every game. Probably would not have been the same results as Peyton in Denver.

This probably would not have been feasible with the $36 million dollar penalty cap.

Dan Snyder has an opportunity here to take the road less traveled, AKA the high road (when you can't decide between cliches, use two). Fire Shanahan, don't play his games, just have him pack the office it get out. It costs you more in the short term, but I bet he'll save money in the long run.

As of this week, that is finally no longer true. They are only going to get better now.

Agreed Tripp. We don't agree on much, but I wholeheartedly agree with you on this. There's nothing to gain (and probably more to lose) by keeping Mike here any longer. At least if anything, Redskins fans will be eager to watch the next game just to see how the interim coach does the rest of the way. Right now, even I don't have a desire to watch the last three games.

Re: Worst Mistake of the Shanahan Era
 

i thought shanny and his son did a great job of implementing their schemes on offense, dealing with fat albert, bringing accountability to the team (before this season) and designing an offense in which a rookie could excel and win ROY.

however, leaking this story and just the state of the skins now .. he and his son have to go. i dont know what the skins do from here but hopefully someone can build around rg3 and fix the defense.

Last year I thought mike was the coach of the year , the way he implemented the ZR offense for RG3 was just amazing and we dominated defenses with it, idk wtf happened but it's the complete opposite now

Re: Worst Mistake of the Shanahan Era
 

Shanahan felt that the 3-4 causes more turnovers. I agree that too much time was invested in changing the defense. Mike Tomlin is a 4-3 guy but didn't at all change the Steelers 3-4 de defense bbecause it was a strength. Shanahan is incompetent in this regard and should have left the defense the way he found it when he arrived.

What a shocker. The Texans arent interested in Shanahan? Crazy. I figured this guy would be all the rage after his failure in Washington that made Jim Zorn look like Vince Lombardi. Hmmm.

I remember thinking RG-3 saved his ass.

Agreed. Fletcher and defense also bailed Mike out in the 2nd half of last season.

^ can't argue that, and Stephen A just said RG3 may become a coach killer smh

Stephen A is loudmouth idiot, and I think the whole world knows who is the culprit as far as all the drama in DC. Griff just wants to win, Shanny is the stubborn mfer who would rather go down in flames than admit he is wrong.
