Thing is if Shanny is indeed making it all about him and Kyle, you won't get a winner in DC anytime too soon. Then the situation would mirror that of the Univ of Michigan/ Rich Rodriguez drama up here. The alumni can't stand him, and many fans were actually rooting for OSU an Miss St, just to make sure he goes. It was all about him and trying to prove his system could work in the Big Ten. All hubris. He should have known that the Big Ten wasn't a finesse league, and running a 3-3-5 defense was absolutely moronic in a run oriented conference. To me I think there are a few sportswriters that have it right and this is mostly about Kyle using the Skins to become the youngest HC in NFL history. We move the ball better than under Zorn, but still can't score. We give up tons of yardage, and at critical junctures in many games we can't make the last stop that can mean a chance at victory or a sure defeat.

Kyle would have to be a head coach by July for that to happen

Chico, Kelly is definitely the wild card

How about Anthony Bryant yesterday? The guy was a damn beast at the nose.

Looking at him he looks stout. My question is with that huge belly how did he fare on the physical test that Shanahan put Haynesworth through. If this guy passed it and it took AH a week, that's further evidence that AH is a lazy piece of shit.

I know some of you don't want to hear or agree with me, but there is a strong possibility that Big Al will be back next season. It all depends on Shanahan talking with Big Al and listening to what Al's attitude is all about.

He may not play in every down but what Al brings to the table can be beastly as a part time DE on the right side or attack the offensive line of the opponent at there weakest man. However, if we trade him we should get at least a 3rd rounder for him.

I think this draft the Skins will go defensive line. They need a blue chip nose tackle.

I think that ship has sailed. McNabb stands a better chance at coming back than AH.

You really think that Shanahan really wants AH back ?

I don't think that now after seeing his press conference. A big NO for Big Al.

Yes there is a possibility, but I would put the chances of AH coming back under 20%(or 1 our of every 5 times), which is certainly not "strong". AH wants to do things AH's way, Mike wants it done Mike's way.

I posted before I saw the press conference. No way Big Al comes back.

There is no way AH plays for the Skins next season. No way!

Just one of my silly comments. No, I don't think Alvin will be back with us. There really is some bad blood between those two.

After reading this, the answer is no way!

Haynesworth was at Redskins Park Monday for the first time since his Dec. 7 suspension for conduct detrimental to the team. Shanahan did not seek him out for a meeting.

"The last time he was in the building, he would not meet with me, Shanahan said. So it is what it is. ... I really didn't think much about it, to be honest with you. I knew he had to come in for a physical. I thought he may stop by; wasn't really sure. He did not."
