Yeah I found that pretty interesting. Is it a case of they just don't want change or they really think he's the best man for the job?
Could have a lot to do with the mindset of the community these days. We've seen so much change that maybe we want to see what a bit of structure would look like? That's my only theory.
Personally, anything can happen in a year. So, I just want to see what Mike would do in his final year knowing this is the end of the line. With some money to spend, RG3 has an offseason working on the offense and with his WR's, etc.
But
I really don't see how you can keep Haslett.

If the Redskins had been 10-0 there wouldn't have been a poll, so nobody (0%) would have voted for him.Not that you needed validation, but this is true.

1. He could be fired but the idea of a demotion is ridiculous.
2. Please stop suggesting that MS ought to be disrespected or punished.
Lmao take it easy Francis.
While Mike isn't being directly disrespected as he deserves, the reports of his disastrous defenses and lopsided win/loss record in Washingtion are mounting. The bottom line story is he's not deserved the HC gig in a very long time and rightfully should be limited to offense. That's my point.

Mike gives us the best chance to win next year... Now you could make the argument that it would be better in the long run to go ahead and make the change, and I can't really argue that point... Let him coach another year without an extension contract if he will, make some roster and coordinator adjustments, and spend that extra 18 million wisely in FA...
IIIsus will have a full offseason to work on his mechanics (crossing fingers he stays healthy) and improve as a passer... I'm really not ready to blow it up and start all over... The Grass is not always greener on the other-side my fellow Skin fans...
Only if Snyder tells Shannahan his son,. Haslett, and whoever the special teams coach is has to go and go back to the 4-3. We do not have the personal for a 3-4 (and yes our secondary will need to addressed no matter which defense we run).

or 70% of people don't want him. Don't forget there are also far more choices than if this is a true coaching search. Personally I find it more disturbing that 15% of people want Jon Gruden.I agree with you.
I really like Jon Gruden. I think he was/is a better coach than Mike Shanahan. But fundamentally, we'd be making the same error on Gruden that was made four years ago on Shanahan, and the result would ultimately be the same.

I don't pretend to be an expert or an NFL GM... I don't think the failure of the defense is all on JH... He is an average Coordinator and we could upgrade... We lack serious talent on that side of the ball... The front 7, what was supposed to be our strength this year, is average on a good day... And our secondary minus Hall (this year alone) is well below average... I'm not really sure what you can ask of him... He calls the plays, it's up to the players to execute, which they can't... I think Kyle receives too much criticism as well... Only Reed and Garcon can create separation on a consistent basis... The O-line can only block for so long... IIIsus has had a recovery/sophomore slump season... Once again players have to execute....
I think the bottom line is that we lack the talent and depth of good teams... We simply are not a good team talent wise... If you want to blame someone, blame Mike....

Based on Dan Snyder's record in hiring Head Coaches (Spurrier, Zorn), he probably should hire his next coach based on the results of a warpath.net poll - but definitely not an extremeskins.com poll.

If we keep MS as coach, we will need a serious coaching staff shakeup. Kyle will have to (and maybe want to) go. I like Kyle and think that he does a good job overall. But our offense cannot remain hostage to Shanahan family bickering.
And of course Haslett and Burns will have to go because their units grossly underperform.
So if we keep MS we still should start 2014 with 3 new systems.
