Re: Mike Singletary Fired

Diehard I understand where you are coming from but I believe you are contradicting yourself. It seems that you were saying that Shanahan should watch his backe because he hasn't done much besides sign Torrain and that you feel that the game has passed him by.

Then you say that Dan Snyder will not sit and let the team play sub .500 ball. So which is it ? Or are you one of those fans that really needs and wants that splash so that you can care again, but just can't admit it ?

Ok, Since Snyder has owned the team, when has he let a coach continue to keep the skins under .500? Shanahan is not going to be the savior all redskins fans are looking for. Reasons I say he must go, What goes thru his mind thinking he can have Grossman. That was definitely a Kyle move. There are so many things that he has done here in one year that it explains why he was fired in Denver. As far as being a fan, all this drama that has occured in the past 3 years, I am completely tired of all the big splash crap that has been going on in this organization.

So were you fine with Zorn as the HC ? Say Snyder went out and found some young guy and we are at 6-9 with that coach, would you be here calling for his head ? Only masking it with Snyders name ? Dude, we were OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS when they made the move to Grossman. WHAT IF they are saving McNabb for next year. Seeing what they have in Grossman as a #2 ? Who knows. It is Mikes first year here, give him the patience that you have wanted for all of the 3 years that you have suffered. So what who's move it was, we as fans bitched and moaned about Coaches being able to make decisions because we say that Snyder is doing it all so let the coaches do their job. So I guess you didn't like that McNabb splash either ? You should be happy with a lesser known, lesser hyped QB in Grossman shouldn't you ? Less of a splash wouldn't you think ?

Hiring a position coach directly to head coach will always be a disaster, Zorn was doomed since day one, Singletary Doomed since day one. Even though he is a great motivator. They never ran an offense or defense. Even with any chance of playoff hopes, John Beck should have been getting majority of the snaps, not Grossman. That is why he got the contract extension. I am aware that Shanahan is doing everything possible to find his next Elway. But it is not Grossman. Stupid moves create a bigger splash at the end of the day.

That's not what you said. You said hiring a position coach as a Head Coach will always be a disaster and we proved to you that what you're saying is incorrect.
