Not gloating but I've said since the offseason began that my evaluation of Shanahan started this year because of the overall job he had to do and the stunted offseasons in 2010 and 2011. So far, he's proven to do exactly what we all wanted once he got his QB and RB in place. The offense is explosive, the defense is productive and the team is the NFC East Champion.
Saw something this morning that of the QB starting yesterday, included in the 5 oldest are Romo and Eli. The future is so freaking bright in DC, we could be in line for a division run similar to what the Colts had during the Manning era.

It is indeed a lot of fun to think about....if your not the Giants, Cowboys or Eagles...........

See post 84
Hmmmmm......I think I would have to seriously consider the performance of the 2.7314159265359 year portion (in his 5 year deal) of his contract in its entirety and not just a.....7 game winning stretch.......

I have a feeling they may wait to extend Shahanan. He has another 2 seasons remaining on his contract. But if they void those two years and give him another deal then I wouldn't be surprised either.

LOL. Just pointing out that this is something that's being discussed since before the Redskins clinched on Sunday. I think I told the other mods about it maybe a couple of weeks before I posted it here? Think it was around Thanksgiving that I first started hearing some true rumblings about this

They were thinking about it around Thanksgiving? We weren't even at .500 at that point. I find that sort of strange to begin extension talks given Shanny's career win-loss record with the Skins, and the fact that they had no clue of the impending 6 game win streak. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they are doing it, but given the record at Thanksgiving, I would have said, lets see how next year goes...
I guess we wanted him on the cheap?
