Lost Some Faith In Shanahan

I disagree. After the first quarter i dont think anybody in their rite mind would have questioned him being taken out of the game. Our offense was literally gaining three yards a quarter. Even though it was a game until late, that had nothing to do with our offense. Once Seattle finally took the lead i knew it was over in my heart. There were 7 minutes left and it was over. I was saying to my friends, "watch here comes RG-3 to do his magic" but in my heart i knew i was just throwing out punchlines at that point.
