Re: Analyzing Mike Shanahan at the Midway Point

One thing this year will prove is that it's easy to look like Jim Zorn coaching even if your name is Mike Shanahan. Plus he's saddled with his inept son, Kyle, who doesn't have the knack for calling plays unless his QB is Matt Schaub, and even Schaub is losing now in Houston. Also, who shoulders the blame for turning in a top 10 defensive unit into one that's worst in the league? I've been blaming Jim Haslett, but ultimately the HC has to be responsible. Maybe next year will be better (It couldn't be worse), but we don't have too many draft choices, which means we'll be a patchwork team again.

Players make plays, play calls don't make plays. Kyle didn't turn into a bum over night, we just don't have the talent that he had in Houston.
