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.

well to be completely technical, i am wrong. So my question to you is, Do you feel Shanahan gives the redskins the best chance to win? if you do, send me some of that stuff you are smoking.

Compared to what or whom exactly? Because honestly, that's a stupid question to ask. Considering those who were interested and qualified to be head coach this season, and compared to what we had last season, yes Shanahan clearly gives the Redskins the best chance to win. He has the experience and the Super Bowl rings to prove it. He was only out of the game for one season and don't give me the "game has passed him by" line because the game is not going to pass a coach by who was only out of coaching for one season. That, is the most absurd thought anybody could ever form in his/her head.

And furthermore, I would suggest that anybody who wants to change coaches every season is taking some serious drugs, because that very thing is what has caused this team to be the laughing stock of the NFL for over a decade now. If this is what you want, you don't know football.

I am not sure if you have noticed that in the past 10 years, the nfl has become more a business regarding if the product is not selling you must take it off the shelf. When players dont produce they are let go, and the same goes for coaching staffs. I totally feel that Snyder has and is doing everything possible to build a championship organization. We as fans can argue on forums like this all day, but at the end of the day. You will take any action that the owner decides is best for his organization.

Can you name the Super Bowl winning coaches who weren't allowed to stew for at least a couple years? You can only be so impatient with nature before it bites you in the ass.

And I'm not sure you have noticed but replacing the coach every year to two years has not made the Washington Redskins successful. The idea that you keep switching the system if it doesn't work in the first year is about as foolish as lighting a cigarette while being drenched with gasoline.
