Regardless of the message he was trying to send though - the team he has built has become an epic fail and i will not give him a pass on that. No way. No how.

Again most of "the team" are injured, which in a way, makes it much more clear who is, and is not taking up the slack. Its hard to see mediocre players when you're winning.

Lets not use the word "clean house" then but rather, refine.

Here’s Mike Shanahan, the team’s coach, in the post-game press conference: “When you lose a game like that, now you’re playing to see who, obviously, is going to be on your football team for years to come.” While he did say he “takes full responsibility” for the team’s third loss in a row, he also said he was “disappointed” and that “now we find out what kind of character we’ve got.”

Fred Smoot on 106.7 the Fan talking about they should get rid of Shanny and bring in a coach like Andy Reid.


Andy Reid?....../facepalm


Fred Smoot is such a assclown.

Re: Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

I don't believe he should be fired, but he need to take a stronger hold on the play calling. We got a top tier qb, and he needs to create more down the field throws. He also needs to play younger players, especially wr's who can catch!

Horrible at clock management, play calling is horrible in red zone, and simply can't get results out of the talent he has.


Pass.

Its time guys know you dont come here for the paycheck any longer.

If you can't read between the lines, Mike is ready to clean house.
I thought we where doing that in the first place with the check. Shanny lovers are making excuses dude nobody wanna win no more we suck now and we give up easily why woulf next year be better?

Re: Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

I agree. I don't want Andy Reid. We need a young coach in here with some attitude that knows how to make game day adjustments.

Well i again have no problem with what he said - i understand the context of it - i have a problem with the fact that their is a reason the team is giving up. Not playing hard. Not good enough. Were missing a couple key guys on d. Were missing a couple key guys on O. Ive seen the offense play lights out though without Garcon. Not sure Fred Davis can help what i saw yesterday. Injuries we have now certainly are not most of the team. The Giants just won a superbowl with mega injuries and do you remember the injuries to the Pack when they won it all - my God. They overcame and won championships. We cant even beat the friggin Panthers.

Please break down how many were injured and for how long. I'm not buying this.

Refining Gold
The final stage of gold production -- refining -- involves removing impurities that remain after the smelting process.

Re: Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

If Sean Payton is truly a free agent then I think we should do what ever it takes to get him here. I think he's just what this franchise needs.

Does he come with a DC named Greg Williams?
