If the wheels fell off the wagon this year, and the Redskins had to find a new coach, would KC fit the new scheme? If they signed him to a long-term deal last year, they would have had to bring a new coach that runs a version of the west coast offense. Maybe that was part of the reason they brought in Callahan?

Norv Turner is the last coach to make it more than fours years. In today's a lot of coaches do not make it more than 4 years. Jay is 16 in tenure, and I could see him moving up to 13th by the end of the season. It was a smart move not to sign KC to a long-term deal last year. They need to lock up Jay and Kirk and end the drama.

The bigger question is Scot M and Jay. Do they mesh? Jay is about big boy smash mouth football and Jay is a complex passing offense. Can they mesh and work together for 4, 5, or 6 more years?
