Report: Shanahan to DC done deal

[The Goat]

So Shanny a done deal!? Well...I'm just glad the season is almost over.

The smartest thing to do would be to fire Zorn right now so Shanahan can come in and get that much more of a jump start to next season...but we are the redskins and so we make everything more complicated lol.

Really... what could Shanahan do in the next 2 weeks that would make a difference to next season?

There's no point in doing that at this point. We've got 14 days before he's named head coach. Nothing he'd do in the next 2 weeks would matter.

I agree. He's better off sitting back watching the games and evaluating the players and deciding who he might want to cut and upgrade their spot. Plus getting his coaching staff together.

I agree. I was leaning towards wanting Zorn back but last night did it for me. At least we'll have someone who knows how to gameplan and attack the other teams weakness. I was hoping Zorn would've got the ax today after that fake fg attempt.

If anyone is holding up this scenario, it is Shanahan. I think he does not want to take over until the end of the season out of respect for Zorn.

I agree. Plus I don't see how stepping into this clusterf**k with 2 games left in the season would benefit Shanny. Especially without being able to bring in his own assistants. Maybe he can teach Dan how to treat his coach and QB while he's here.

that doesn't help

staff and a lot of roster will have to be evaluated after the playoffs and/or superbowl

Are you guys having the same problem I am....for the last 2 yrs I have been unable to purchase Redskins items cause I did not want to keep lining DS's pocket as long as this team continued to be mediocre, Cerrato was still with the team, and Zorn not fired. Basically it was a personal decision to not put money in DS's pocket until there was change.

Since Cerrato's demotion, and Allen's announcement I have been looking at Skins gear while out X-Mas shopping. I find myself wanting to purchase something due to the excitement and knowledge that there will be change. I pick up the gear look at it hold it in my hand and put it back on the shelf. It's like someone is saying "wait......wait....more change is needed."

I think when the old regime is out and the new regime is in place I'll finally purchase some gear knowing that the changes are better then what we currently have and most likely will improve the team. Kinda a "Thank You DS." New gear for the new regime.

I see so you would like to have 2 Chris Cooley jerseys, a Redskins grill, 5 hats, 2 wrist bands, a cheerleading calender, a hoodie, 2 leather caps, and a foam finger shipped to you in late April or early May?

Ya know what that sounds even better. Thanks. Cause depending on whether they pick up players of a needed position or simply pick up 3 more receivers, a LB, and 2 CB's might make up my mind.

No don't be rediculous. I was just saying that for the last 2 yrs I have been on my own (small) boycott of Redskins gear. Now with Vinny being gone (supposedly) I actually have more hope that this team will be handled more professionally. But having gone to the store many times over 2 yrs looking at Skins gear and forcing myself not to purchase I find myself still reserved. Just wondering if anyone else is feeling the same way.

Clearly your not. Chalk one up for the "No" side. Look I'm starting out like the Skins....0-1.
