Most likely the glaring need was a win in Pittsburgh over WRs.

Before today i didnt care because we were scoring. So i took the who cares how it gets done as long as it gets done approach. But im talking about next year - probably without Moss. Leaves us with Robinson, Morgan, and Hank. Garcon im fine with if he is healthy. Are you totally comfortable with that group?

Shanahan may very well be on television next year.
So what do you suggest the redskins do if they fire Shannahan? With a salary cap hit, what do you expect? Don't you think we would have signed Grubbs and Finnegan if they didn't have the salary cap hit? Skins have it and Shannahan seems to be working with what he has. I give him until next season. RG III buys him some more time I think.

Should he be the coach after the bye week? After the season? I think I'm still in wait-and-see mode, but it's been a long time since I've been able to envision a future Redskins team winning under Mike Shanahan. At this point, it sure seems like the Redskins will just be playing out the string, particularly if the Giants hold on today.

A word of warning/advice: obviously this loss seems worse today (Sunday) than it will in the middle of the week. It's totally reasonable to want to change your vote given some time to cool off. I think that's a given, actually.

I generally (and specifically, in this case) do not support mid-season coach firings.
Yeah Snyder fires him at midseason. Are you thinking before typing this?

Probably penalties I'm guessing, or maybe it's time for Forbath to go 0/4

Assuming Davis comes back 100%, yeah I can live with our receivers as they are now.

Do you realize where our offense ranks? Not sure how you can talk about lack of productivity. Today was apparently a off day for all of our WRs. Probably why Kyle ended up running a screen for Paulsen. He was the best out there today.

Just our luck. lol.

I think we'll put it back together, just not sure about next week. Seems like lately we lose most games that we should win.

Re: Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

I think we have a good shot at beating Carolina. 4-5 at the bye wouldn't be so bad.

RG- 3 / Morris/ oline. Can you honestly say Hank or Robinson have anything to do with that? Garcon certainly doesnt he is hurt. Morgan? Moss has been pretty decent but the wr's havent exactly carried our offense NC.
Edit: i did not mean lack of productivity from the offense i meant strictly from the wr's.

He is asking for opinions and threw that out there as an option - its a pretty open ended question. You should share your thoughts on your opinion of Shannys job security.

The team is practically the same as last year except now we actually have a quarterback. It's like throwing a new gloss of paint on an old shitty car; It looks nice at first but then you realize it's still your same old shitty car.
Or a new coat of paint on section 8 housing. Inside, It might have a 70 inch LED 3dtv (RG3), but you're still in downtown detroit. Our defense would be the crumbling foundation, and the old lead based paint chips falling off all over the place. Of course our corners would be the overflowed toilet, and our safeties would be the rat and squirrel droppings in the dark dank corners.

(I don't know why I just typed that, I just kept going, just like the vast majority of my posts........)
