Let's put Shanahan on the spot

Just for a little fun.

Albert Haynesworth's play annoying to watch. Hence, he doesn't see the field much. Part of it his fault, but not all of it.

However, just what the hell is up with the rest of the freaking defense? They did their squire work, did they, old King?

Oh wait, fitting square pegs into round holes. Yes, that's awesome. Now we get to enjoy what Bronco fans experienced in 2008.

Let's see, we face:
Vick the revived and hyperinvigorated
Mr Dive Bomber, Aaron Da Bomber Rodgers
Petyonian Manning,
And lol, super-sexy gunslinger-extrordinaire Jay Cutler.

After the Lions Jahvid Best carves us up nicely, we face:
Vick AGAIN
The Young Johnson show
The old and original gunslinger, Favrah
The Book of Sheli
The Black Jay Cutler, Josh FREEman. LET FREEDOM RING, BABY. Freedom for the passing game, that is.
Romoextrordinary

We relax for one week against the twin of Jason Campbell (and Super Runt Jones-Drew) , only to face
The Book of Sheli, part deux.

There you have it folks. Let that sink in.

Re: Let's put Shanahan on the spot

I am fine with moving to a 3-4 but you don't do the same year that you give up 2 draft picks for a veteran quarterback (who we have locked up for one year at this point).

This team had a pretty good defense in the 4-3. We are arguably the worst in the league now.

Re: Let's put Shanahan on the spot

We'll be lucky to match last year's win total if the defense doesn't change somehow. This Rams game was supposed to be one of, if not THE easiest game on our schedule this year. And we got our asses kicked up and down the field.

Given our schedule, we're in deep shit IMO.

Watch a bunch of chronic chokers? Lots of hype and excitement and no championship.

Philly is better, GB is better, Indy is better, Dallas is better (we all know it), That's already 4-5 more losses. Not counting Chicago, Det (beat us last yr).. We may be better than NYG MAYBE..

Re: Let's put Shanahan on the spot

at this point, i don't think we are better than a single team on the rest of our schedule.


we are awful.


we might not win another game the rest of the year.


may as well accept it now and be pleasantly surprised if things turn out otherwise.

Re: Let's put Shanahan on the spot

The real question is What Shanny will do in the offseason? Does McNabb come back? IMO Guys like Fletcher ( who I absolutely love and is my favorite Redskin) will be back? Carter is gone, Rogers is gone, All of our WR's besides Moss will be gone.. CP is done, Cooley or Davis, one will be gone. We need to accept the fact and just rebuild ASAP.

I think we are better than Philly. At least we were when Kolb was QB. I predict a win there next week.

We are still a terrible defenst but I think Trent plays, we come out focused and McNabb plays out of his mind.

Vick is due to come down a notch too.

Against our Swiss cheese defense, Jackson and Maclin will have no trouble abusing our secondary. Don't forget about McCoy either. If a scrub can punch it in, he sure can.

Re: Let's put Shanahan on the spot

Yea P$ I can hope all day, but reality sets in and I'm pretty damn sure we will go down something like 28-20. McNabb will play solid but we cant run the ball and cant stop the run so were ****ed

I know that losing to the Lambs is bad and everyone is down.

But you're never as bad as you look in bad losses and never as good as you look in good wins.

Further, the team had no spark, no emotion, today. Give the team some emotion and they'll look very different. Next week is a different week.

they only beat the Eagles next week by creating turnovers or jumping ahead 10-0 or 14-0. We haven't seen how the Eagles respond after being in a 14-0 hole. They scored first the past 2 weeks
