Whatever happens as far as the playoffs, one things for sure, Kyle's stock has jumped big time.

A month or two ago, i think Smoot said/implied there was mutual interest to varying degrees with several teams and it was all but garaunteed he'd be somewhere else next year. I really hope there's some way we can keep him. He and RGIII are obviously working well together and i think switching offensive coordinators would only stunt the offense. I can't imagine someone else coming in and doing as good a job as Kyle.

I guess it really depends on how long Mike plans to coach. If we really just wants to coach out the rest of his contract, then i could see snyder/allen convincing Kyle to stay if they promised making him the HC when his dad retires. If Mike has no intention of retiring anytime soon, then Kyle is gone... and i'm worried he'd go to Philly or Dallas.

Kyle has been and will continue to be in hot demand until he makes a decision. I hope he decides to stay here

I'm more worried about Roman or Gruden going to Philly or Dallas. And I still think it's basically irrelevent who schemes our offense. We have the most dynamic QB in the league right now and plenty of talent surrounding him. If this regime can get the defense right (top 10 say) we'll be a contender for the SB, but that's the big ? at this point.

Irrelevant unless it's a failed play...then it's Kyle's fault right?

Kid is never going to give any of the Shanahans credit for anything. Super Bowls? Nope. One of top offenses in league on two different teams? Nope.


It's never ending with this guy. It's all RGIII out there. He's calling the plays. He designed the scheme. He's blocking. He's catching his own passes. Nope. Nobody else. Just RGIII.


I hate some fans.

I was still waiting for a ruling on that.

If it were possible is that actually illegal?

I thought the screens were bad calls themselves last night but otherwise it was a solid game for offense. My point, and I think it's obvious, is there's a lot of ways you could scheme/coach this offense to win. Does that make sense?

Specific to Kyle the play-calling has improved over the last three games. Before that play-calling was bad to avg. I realize you'll never agree with this, but I think the results spoke for themselves.

Along those lines, among all the guys I watch/talk football with the most memorable Redskins play this season is sending RG3 out to catch a pass against Ryan Clark. That play was a microcosm of the season up to three weeks ago. The play-calling/coaching has improved. It seems pretty simple to me.

Fair enough...not exactly what you've been saying in this thread up to this point...but fair enough. Moving on

Well, to be clear it's fanfukintastic we're pulling it together right now. Mike and Kyle and Haslett have all started to earn their pay and the right to keep their jobs

I'll say this.... in the first 3 games or I should say wins I felt the play calling was right on. The players had little to no penalties and the play calling was spot on. Then some where after those games the play calling changed, we saw more pitches by RG3 and less roll outs and less option plays. Designed probably to keep RG3 from getting hit like he did in the first few games.

Then even I said they need to get back to doing what they were doing at the beginning of the year. More roll outs, more play action to freeze the defenses, more option plays with RG3 holding his hands up right before he gets hit if he doesn't have the ball. The last 3 games we have seen just that.

I'll agree the screens were baffling and I was pissed but no OC will call the perfect game. There will always be some plays even he wishes he could take back.

Now last night I was more pissed in the first half cause it seemed like the passes were going to everyone but the guys who helped the team win the last 3 games. Where was Hankerson? where was Robinson? where was Garcon? where was Morgan? It seemed like the passes went to Niles Paul (who can't catch a cold)- even though he got lucky with the catch in the Dallas game (which he bobbled). Passes went to Paulson (whom I love by the way but.....) who dropped on and was over thrown the second time.

Yes Morgan caught the fumble for the TD. But it seemed like Garcon was not majorly used until the second half and where was Robinson? hankerson I think had one catch for decent yards and maybe Morgan had another catch.
