Re: McNabb a REDSKIN!

I've heard that said, but Kyle is our OC and calling plays, did Houston run the same offense as his dad? I don't know, I am asking because I would say Houston didn't seem to be a WCO.
I think the Offenses should be similar. Kyle worked under Gruden in Tampa (WCO). He then moved to Houston where he worked under a HC that worked under Shanahan. I know we hear all the touting of Kyle Shanahan being the OC in Houston but the HC was already in place and ran an offense similar to what Shanahan was running. Kyle was WR coach, then QB coach, then OC. He had time to learn some of his fathers system and run it.

Kyle sounds like a coach who will take chances. Will want to pass the ball. Mike Shanahan was more of a HC that liked to run the ball. The good news is the blocking scheme was the same under Alex Gibbs for both coach's. So mixing both will not be to bad an issue as it was with our Joe Gibbs running mixed with Zorn's/Holmgrens passing attack.
