Are you buying into the Shanaplan?

Thought this should go here

I don't understand some people's logic. Why would Kyle Shanahan want a head coaching job handed to him? If there's other head coaching jobs available when the times comes, then wouldn't Kyle Shanahan want to explore those opportunities? Why would he want his father's job just handed to him?

For all we know, Jim Haslett might get the Redskins head coaching job once Mike Shanahan leaves Washington.

Haslett? Um, no.

I mentioned Haslett because he's been a head coach before. If Kyle Shanahan moves on and Mike steps down, Bruce Allen would indeed promote Haslett to HC.....people forget that Jim Haslett was the NFL coach of the year in 2000.

No, he wouldn't.

Morris would be in line for the job over Haslett, easily.

This is where I differ...Haslett is the defensive coordinator.....Morris is the secondary coach. Haslett has played the game, been a d. coordinator many times and has been a head coach who has led his Saints team to the playoffs. Morris on the other hand has been a HC also but he's only had one winning season as a HC. Under Morris, the Buccaneers finished 30th in pass defense in 2011. A few people that I've talked to that knows a little about defensive football says Morris employs a pass defense scheme called 'trail technique and this 'trail technique' has been the main reason why the Redskins have been scorched so badly until the bye week. They still use it but not as much before the bye. Basically what I'm saying is Morris is the one that has made Haslett look bad.....Haslett, as he proved in 2011 and after the bye week here in 2012, is a solid DC. If he doesn't get a promotion once Mike Shanahan leaves then he should be at least considered.

If Morris ever becomes the Redskins HC it will be because Bruce Allen and Morris were boys in Tampa.

Take it for what it's worth, the inside word says Morris is very well liked in the organization.

Hey, I don't dislike Morris. He may even do better as a coach in Washington than in Tampa Bay if he ever got the opportunity. Bellichick wasn't great in Cleveland. But he was a master in New England. Maybe Morris can do the same.

Little known story that most people don't know. Before Snyder's first season as owner he tried to hire Jim Haslett to be his HC. Cowher blocked the move though

That said, Haslett is not going to be promoted to HC here

Yeah, and Haslett is going to bring in Jerry Jones as Special Teams coach.

Haslett will not even be here next year. We'll have a new DC come 2013 season.
