Haz isn't getting the HC job. Come on now.

[QUOTE=HonoluluBlue;1052171]It's become clear to me, and I think to a lot of people, that Shanahan was largely the beneficiary of coaching John Elway in his prime. If it wasn't for that he would have never been as successful as he was. I don't see him finding another job now.[/QUOTE]

I hate Shanny....But In all fairness Elway was at the end of his career when Shanny got there. If it wasnt for the ZBS and Terelle Davis -all of which Shanny bought to the table - Elway would still be ringless.

Yeah that's ridiculous, I wonder why they haven't announced his firing yet though . . . they couldn't possibly be retaining him could they?

I honestly don't think he did that bad of a job given the shit hand he was dealt, and now this talk that Shanny would sometimes undermine him and call defensive plays. :doh:

That said I don't think he'll be here next year. Depending on who they they decide to go with at HC I think he's just an insurance policy.

Come the hell on people. I have a better chance of getting the HC job of the Redskins than Jim Hasneverbeen.

What shit hand? Talent, due to Offensive focus lack of draft picks and Cap?

I thought so too. One thing about Haslett is I thought his timing of certain play calls was TERRIBLE. Never thought he was that bad, but damn, when it should have been the most obvious play call, he'd call the opposite. Also, something about his scheme lets TEs totally eat us up. Basically the middle of the field in front of our LBs is always wide open.

Maybe it's the talent, but I don't remember that being an issue prior to Haslett.

Re: It's official: Shanahan fired
 

I just don't see much good in the product Haslett has put out. He haslet people run and pass all over us (hardy har). But seriously, I feel like he has gotten less production out of the talent that he DOES have, than he ought to have. Now certainly, he hasn't had much to work with in certain areas, but I just feel with everything invested in the pass rush we ought to have one by now.

[quote=skinsfan69;1052261]Listening to Cooley....he really gives great insight on what's went on here the last four years. Sounds like total dysfunction.[/quote]

Can you recap for those of us who didn't hear it?

Re: It's official: Shanahan fired
 

Would of liked to have seen what MS would have done with all that cap $$$$. oh well I'm a SKINS fan not a coach fan.

Well that being said, I won't exactly be sad if he IS fired. Not that anyone is going to come in here and be a magic bullet, but Haslett didn't have TONS of talent to work with. We were constantly playing with a lead last year and that certainly makes things easy on a defense versus trying to come back from 20+ points down.

Re: It's official: Shanahan fired
 

I need haslett to be fired. I'm nervous he will be retained

Re: It's official: Shanahan fired
 

Can't imagine Haslett stays on so can't understand why he's still here? Hopefully it doesn't indicate anything about how the FO will operate going forward. The new GM/HC should pick whoever they prefer for DC and why the hell would they want Haslett??

No way in hell he stays, I would have fired him and Burns before Shanahan.
