Roster transition in the Shanny era

He's good through 2014, no questions. He's gone on the record too many times saying 'I told Dan Snyder if you aren't going to give me 5 years to turn this around then don't hire me' for Snyder to fire him after 3 years. What that does is take the onus off of him and makes Snyder look like he's gone back on his words and like the quick triggered impulsive owner that everyone thinks he is. That being said, he won't go into the final year of his contract as a lame duck. He will either get an extension or resign after 4 years.Does that make us the only organization in the league that has the coach making his case for keeping his job openly in the media? Yes, I think it does.

Snyder can fire who he wants whenever he wants. Winning games is still what Shanahan is getting more than $7 million a year to do.

Ok man. I'm done.

8-8 probably isn't good enough on it's own merits, but style points count. If they have a year where the offense has a sensational season under Kyle Shanahan and a new QB puts up great numbers, Shanahan is probably safe for 2013 so long as he's willing to make gruesome cuts to his staff in the weak areas responsible for the losing.

If it's more of the same though, he's done.

I agree with this. I think one of the challenges of being highly optimistic this year is the fact that there were a couple of games where the team flat out quit on MS. It was just pathetic to see them out there, and regardless of MS' resume or the (lack of) talent out there, some of those games were inexcusable.

I will say that the small improvements in the last couple of games gave me some optimism. But I really hope that I don't see any stupid offseason moves (similar to the McNabb trade or going with the Rex/Beck tandem) or see the team once again quit on MS. As Tripp said, if they go 8-8, but with an improved team (just like the Panthers this season), MS job will be safe for 2013.

Ok man. I'm done.

Have to ask. In your sig you have one of the words made up on The Warpath that I cannot "figure out".

What was "Rewalsr" supposed to be in English?

Rewalsr is a good one. This happened when the Rams released Atogwe, and someone started a thread titled "Rams Rewalsr Atogwe" (instead of "release") or something along the lines. I believe this person was posting from their phone and completely botched the spelling. We all had a laugh about it for a couple of days.

Thank you.

I could have gone for days without unscrambling "Rewalsr"...

Ok so your a HC in the NFL and your in the same position as MS, two losing seasons, what do you tell the media if they ask you about your job and if you are gunna be around next year? Basically thats what happened to him. He was questioned about his job security so he said as far as I know my job is safe, I'll be here next year.

It would have been better had DS or Allen came out and said something like "we are happy where this organization is heading or we are happy with what MS is doing for this club and we like the direction." They didn't, so when MS was asked he answered.

Who's Rewalsr? Sounds Eskimo.......sorry Inuit.

Thank you.

Think it's actually Relwasr, but Rewalsr works too
