Fred Smoot calls RGIII a ‘brat’ and Shanahan ‘Red Lobster’

Fred Smoot on radio today bringing the smackdown.

“If you’re going to make a coaching change for the future, it’s time to make it now,” he said. “Robert Griffin III has been a Redskin now for one and a half years. If you’re gonna change his coach and you want a coach to grow with him like the Bradys and Belichicks and all the great pairs of quarterbacks and coaches, you have to do it now. And right now, I think the Red Lobster’s working his way outta here. I think Shanahan is working his way out of here.”

Red Lobster...

Smoot also says Shanahan should be fired and they should bring in Chucky or Cowher.

Yeah, I'm not agreeing with Smoot by any means. Just found his "red lobster" comment hilarious. Truth is, Smoot isn't a very bright guy when it comes to stuff like this. Bringing in a Gruden or Cowher would be a drastic mistake. Sure, lets bring in a guy who hasn't coached football in 7+ years. That'll be swell!!

^^^^This. I love how the mentality says go out and get these ex-great coaches, but that's the truth, they have been out of the game too long to come back and be effective.

All due respect to coach Gibbs, but I know there were some on here who wondered if the game had passed him by when he was brought out of retirement the first time.

Shanahan is probably working his way out of here. I think his chair is hot if they keep losing, and it should be. But we need to start fresh and not go get some re-tread, once upon a time coach...

I think just about all the main coaches (HC, OC, DC) would be kicked out. But then that means learning a whole new system next year. Blah.

Its getting more difficult for me to be patient with A. Robinson. Heard all kinds of good things about him at camp, but I'm seeing a lot of the same.

Yes, he's improved, but he doesn't strike me as a "natural" catcher. I'm really hoping we pull off another draft miracle and pick up a baller WR & Safety. Total shame we're still needing the same DB position, and I do believe Rambo can develop, but I'm not sure how long he will take. Hate to come out and say this, but I'm beginning to wonder if he "has it". Hope I'm wrong.

I agree with you Rambo appears to be avoiding contact. I don't know how much you can devlope that. As a safety you should not shy away from contact. Its a part of your talent skill set. If you don'thahve that skill then safety is not the position for you.

Regarding this comming sundays game,

As I sit here watching the Broncos vs Raiders I'm seeing a few things, Yeah Pryor runs this option but Mcfadden isn't a option running back and as bad as our defense is I think (ain't saying much) we are better than Jacksonville. Our boys won't just lay down Sunday and quite frankly I understand this is Peyton Manning they are playing against but the Raiders have a case of the I can't cover as well. RGIII > Pryor in the pocket and yes I went there Our defense needs this game to build its confidence. Nevermind the offense though expect the scoreline to be high both defenses are terrible

Well, the thing with guys particularly like Gruden who decide to become color analysts is that they do it in part to be able to stay involved with all the inner workings of every team just in case the opportunity comes again. Gruden gets to be "in the trenches" so to speak with two teams every week, getting access to their talent, coaches, philosophies that he couldn't otherwise. That said, no I don't want him here either

Curious...

Who would you like to see as our next HC?

Do you think Danny still wants big name or flashy types for HC? Would Danny ever hire Lovie or a guy like him?

I don't know who. Haven't given it that much thought. One guy I think deserves another chance is Perry Fewell

I don't know anything about him prior to being with the Gints. He's a good prospect though for sure. Would be a little nervous given that teams issues right now.

I like the idea of Lovie because he always knows how to build a defense. Saw stats on his defense with the bears and it's just amazing. And he's a disciplinarian type, something this team needs badly.
