That's why I tend to laugh when people talk about how much power Kyle Shanahan has in Washington. Yup, Kyle has so much power in Washington that he couldn't convince his head coach not to add a guy to the team that clearly didn't fit his scheme.

Well he has enough power to make McNabb leave. But you are right, I think his "power" may be a bit exaggerated.
