Bruce, if you have any ounce of common sense, you will fire Redskins Head Coach Mike Shanahan immediately.
The problem is the modern slave mentality that's still pervasive in football today allows a person like Shanahan to get a head coaching job, even after Denver Broncos Owner Pat Bowlen fired him.
Bolen was right.
Mike Shanahan has become a franchise-killer. His inability to relate to black players and his consistent use of not just racial code words, but racist treatment of players like Donovan McNabb and Albert Haynesworth while not criminal, should be. Plus, Shanahan's grasp of the modern game is simply not there any more.
The modern NFL game has passed Shanahan by. His son, Offensive Coordinator Kyle Shanahan, shows the same "in the box" unimmaginative play calling and play design that's plagued Mike for several years. Many of the current offensive innovations, from quarterback runs to fake wide receiver screen pass / draw plays, and constant use of runs out of the shotgun / spread, aren't in the Redskins system.
And Mike Vick?
Ha.
While Coach Shanahan may praise Philadelphia Eagles QB Mike Vick, the fact is Mike Shanahan would have ruined Vick had he coached him. Indeed, Shanahan would have benched Vick for Rex Grossman, then came up with some off-the-wall reason to justify his move.
Mike's problem is he can't stand anyone black who is smart, and I say this from experience.
When the Broncos played the Oakland Raiders in 2001, this blogger was one of the Raiders press team members. After a game that saw the Broncos use a four-wide-receiver offense to make up for the lack of a healthy tight end, I asked Mike about that.
Well, I tried to.
Shanahan was actually flustered that I asked him a technical question. He looked as if that wasn't supposed to come from my mouth. I never forgot that episode of my life, and its "colored" my view of Mike ever since. It caused me to think he's one of those people who's not comfortable with anyone who's black who's "mind is on fire," perhaps because he's threatened by them.
Sad.
Thus, when Mike benched McNabb and basically kicked dirt on him, I knew what was up with that. Mike can't deal with smart black guys, and I'll stand tall by that assertion.
Mike Shanahan will not bring a division championship to Washington. Bruce. Coach Shanahan wlll ruin your career as GM and fast.
Bruce Allen, save yourself.
Fire Mike Shanahan.
BRUCE ALLEN WILL SURELY HAVE TO HAVE MIKE SHANAHAN LAY OUT WHAT HE YOUNGER SHANAHAN & HASLETT ARE PLANNING IN THE DRAFT BECAUSE LAST I CHECKED DANIEL SNYDER IS THE OWNER OF THE WASHINGTON REDSKINS AND SHANAHAN HAS BURNT DANIEL SNYDERS MONIES AND BRUCE ALLENS PRESTIGE WITH BENCHING MCNABB & INSTALLING THE 3-4 WITHOUT A PROPER DRAFT OR PROPER PLAYERS THE FUNDAMENTAL OUTLOOK HERE IS A DISASTER TO TEAR DOWN GREG WILLIAMS DEFENSE BUT IF YOU KEEP THE 3-4 THAT IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO, OF COURSE WHEN JIMMY JOHNSON TOOK OVER THE COWBOYS THEY WENT THROUGH THE DRAFT AND TOOK IT ON THE CHIN THE FIRST SEASON THE SHANAHAN ERA STARTED WITHOUT TAKING IT ON THE CHIN BUT THE PLAYERS TOOK IT ON THE CHIN WITH DECISIONS LIKE LARRY JOHNSON,WILLIE PARKER,DONAVEN MC NABB, THE LEAGUE WILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH HAINSWORTH BUT I SEE MANY OTHER PLAYERS MAYBE HEADED OUT LIKE ITS SHANAHANS WAY OR THE HIGHWAY I DONT THINK SHANAHAN,YOUNGER SHANAHAN ,HASLETT WILL BE ABLE TO BURN ANY MORE MONIES FROM DANIEL SNYDER I FEEL THAT A GAME PLAN IS IN AFFECT HERE, TO CANCEL THE COACHING OF THE CURRENT COACHES FOR A COACH THAT CAN GET ALONG WITH PLAYERS,TO FIRE HASLETT AND YOUNGER SHANAHAN WOULD MAKE MIKE SHANAHAN RESIGN LOOK FOR THAT TO HAPPEN TO GET THE 2011 DRAFT IN ORDER AND MAKE SOME LOST TIME UP WITH THE PURSUIT OF THE COACHING SUCCESOR!!!
