Seven games into this season, it appears we have one-half of the equation in RGIII. Shanahan has shown he can be the other half but the question is can he be that again.

Thank you for this. Goat you should really un-ignore him to read this. Lol. This is so true. The truth of the matter is that we all know RG-3 has shown he is quite capable of being a championship quarterback, or so it would seem after 7 frikkin games - wow. Shanny definitely still has something to prove and even most of the "apologists" have agreed that if the team is not a winning team by 2013-14 that maybe the game has passed him by.
Also I want to add that its not as simple as sitting here and going - walsh/ montana - bellicheck/ brady. Lets not forget that without a great gm that niners team isnt as good or what Beathard did for the skins. Everybody is forgetting key little areas of football teams that ALSO contribute to winning championships. The Chicago Bears in 85 and the Baltimore Ravens in 2000 were won because of DEFENSE. The Steel Curtain? The New York Giants vs Pats Version 1. The Skins had a dominant o-line that carried three different qb's to three super bowl titles. Its not so black and white as a coach and a qb.
