I love going back through threads when Shanahan was hired, and seeing some of the same people who praised it.. Now, those same people are talking bad on him.
You guys are a joke.
Would you say the same for Haynesworth? Not to say Shanahan has been a bust but he isn't exactly absolved from criticism either. The jury is still out but yeah
We should bring back Jim Zorn
Re-Sign Cooley, Portis, Jason Taylor, Archuleta, D. Sanders, Jason Taylor, Dana Stubblefield, Bruce Smith, Fat Albert and whoever else wants to blow our salary wad on!
Let's bring back the glory days of spending a 2nd rounder on a WR because he had 1 good year as a senior and is fast.
Casay Rabach, John Janson, and many more!!!
I loved our franchise a lot better when we averaged the age of 30+ and was the laughing stock of the free agency market.
Let's trade away a corner back who is going to go down as one of the greatest of all time, for a running back who lasted 5 seasons, and was hurt in most of them. We've had 3 seasons to change a 50 man roster that was riddled with has been's, and never was. Is every replacement going to be perfect? No, but our franchise is in a better position now then it was in 2005. I think everyone need to take a breath and realize that Rome wasn't build in a day. The league isn't full of Bill Belichick's just waiting to get signed to head coaching jobs.
I find it adorable that some of you blame the coaches for everything bad on our team and not some of the talent, but in a different thread you want to say it was Elway and Davis who led the Broncos, and not the coaches. Comical, hypocritical fans...
Shanahan was doomed the minute he signed with this franchise because the modern day fan for Washington is so tainted by the Cerrato era, that they forgot what it takes to actually build a team.
Preach Brother!
The truth will set us all free...........

Is there a law against changing your mind? Of course there was excitement - he was replacing jim zorn! Now after three years he has a worse win % than zorn did! Is it ok with you that we are not as excited? The joke is that it seems like some people put a certain player or coach above the team! I am a redskins fan - whoever puts on the uniform or coaches the team i want to do well. If they dont i want them gone! What the hell is wrong with that?

The truth is those teams bucket is referring to with all their horrible moves went to the playoffs twice and the team that you guys seem to put up on such a pedestal as a model of how a dynasty should be run loses every friggin week for three years now.
I hope to god that it gets turned around but can the wins please come before the praise?
A lot of folks are stupid

I mean, if he came in with mediocre expectations, and had two losing seasons but the team got younger and drafted well, then fine, maybe there is a silver lining in all the losing.
But he was hired to win early, long, and often. And all that's happened is losing, losing, and more losing.

Matty do you not see any reasoning in the fact that shanny should not be loved by skins fans UNTIL he wins? I see alot of the same people that praise shanny now say things like gibbs shouldnt have come back. Gibbs went to the playoffs twice Shanny gets alot of love here because of his past success. How come it was so easy to overlook gibbs past success?

Sorry if you're still holding out hope, but it's the truth.

I agree. Im still holding out hope as im sure you are. We are skins fans. But this is theee worst three year run according to wins and losses ( which i thought is what a teams success was based on) in a long time.

But it's irrational hope at this point. It's not based on logic or reason or any on field evidence from the last three years.
It's just me being a fan.
