D.C. Sports Bog - A short history of Mike Shanahan benching his quarterback

On a side note, this blog is becoming more newsworthy than Skins Insider. Steinberg's intent is humor, but in poking fun at things he actually does some research that brings things to light like this.

good article i love the bog, found this part rather interesting

I made a mistake in not telling them more specifically why I was making the change," he said. "I should have done a better job of telling everybody at that time why I was making the decision.You don't always do everything right. If I had to do it over again, that's what I would have done. I apologized to the team for not telling them why I made it....Obviously, any time there's speculation in radio, TV and the press, any time you have that type of controversy, it surely doesn't help the team."

this was inregards to benching one starting qb for another. guess it's safe to say the old man doesn't learn from his mistakes huh? i really hope i'm wrong but i just don't see this type of philosphy that shanahan is trying to implement working in todays nfl.
