Most Charger fans consider AJ Smith the sole reason the team has been bad.
They blame him for ripping the team apart by not signing their proven talent and adding players that have been busts.

AJ Smith is another train wreck waiting to happen.

Keep him away from contracts (that's Allen's wheelhouse anyway) and let him focus on identifying talent.

Rex Ryan, He has done more with less than any coach in football.

I think that's all moot if the front office is promoting Allen and Moroco.

What about Ken Whisenhunt? He resurrected Kurt Warner, and he has now helped Phillip Rivers bounce back toward being an upper tier QB.

Yes. I think he would be a great fit over any of the guys listed. Done more to prove/earn it too IMO. Who runs the defense?

Re: Choose Your 2014 Redskins Head Coach (Volume 2)

The skins have lost 10 plus games in 3 out of 4 years that Mike has coached, also we have the worst record in the NFC east during that span and the 6th worst in the nfc.....


Y! SPORTS

The Washington Post reported that the Redskins are looking into whether they can fire Shanahan with cause and therefore not pay him the $7 million he has remaining on his contract for next season. The Post said the Redskins were "sorting through their options" on Monday morning.

Re: Choose Your 2014 Redskins Head Coach (Volume 2)

I was a supporter of Mike Shanahan until yesterday. I don't know yet who I want to replace him, but he needs to go. After 4 years of coaching, you should have a competitive, disciplined team, and Shanahan certainly doesn't have that. As others have pointed out, he has been a complete failure coaching our team except for one 7 game streak. Just leave, Mike. I want to root for a team that can beat Minnesota and the like, or, at the very least, manage to lose by respectable margins: not by 35 f***ing points. Just leave, Mike.

Right. What else would be the narrative at this point. Everyone who has a job they might want to keep would deny both directly and through sources. Everyone else would be at most cryptic about their interest. No one will own up to wanting some other guy's job before he is fired.

I was one of the fans that said he would be our savior and lead us to a winning tradition once again, hell I even bought the whole KS shit and wanted him to be the guy after Mike retired..... WOW was I an idiot

Kinda hard to think otherwise given what happened at the end of last season. Hopefully we can move on from this.

Re: Choose Your 2014 Redskins Head Coach (Volume 2)

Whisenhunt isn't a great head coach. He'd be a massive upgrade over Shanahan, but the Redskins can do better.

If Briles will take the job (and Sumlin won't), it should be Briles. But I can't imagine him doing more than just interview for this job. Just can't see Briles saying yes.

I have been pitching Ken's name out there for weeks. He is a good coach, a good teacher and will make RG3 better. Bring in Russ Grimm as OC and to help with the line. My wildcard is Ken Norton Jr. as DC. He is a Pete Carroll disciple that has been with Pete at both USC and Seattle. He knows every thing about that defense and could implement it here.

Re: Choose Your 2014 Redskins Head Coach (Volume 2)

SIGH. Again. This means diddly. Coaches have signed contracts and left for the Pros before. Heck, I remember a certain Miami HC who said he was not leaving and then left to go back to the college ranks. After the fact he did the same thing with the college he was originally at prior to taking the Miami job.
