Shanahan The New Head Coach Of the Redskins

Slingin Sammy 33 · 01-05-2010, 09:36 PM

Glad to see it done. Get right to the evaluation of players and putting the new scheme in place ASAP. I'm more excited about Kyle Shanahan as the OC and Mike Zimmer the DC. I think KS will need to emphasize the run a bit more than in Houston to be successful in late Nov. / Dec. in the NFC East, but that shouldn't be an issue, especially if Alex Gibbs is coming to run the OL. Zimmer will likely stay with the 4-3 (I'm not sure where the 3-4 rumors are coming from) and greatly improve our defense in terms of 3rd down % and turnovers.

It's the off-season, time for eternal optimism.

sidenote: JReid sounds ticked that he can't get a confirmation back from the Skins. Rather they had let him break the story.

Looks like Mike is going to bring his son with him from the Texans to serve as his OC. I sure wish he could bring Andre Johnson with him too.

I bought into the early rumors. You think I'll be able to return this Chucky doll?

Not really, but it had to be said.

Dude, some things you just don't kid with. Things like Terrorism, epidemics, the possibility of Vinny coming back, and Stan Hixon staying on as a Recievers coach.

Uh, re-read the post. I believed it from the start.

Hint: I'm a smartass. I said yeah right to the fact that my daughter is serving them dinner.

Ok, what do I have to put in front of and back of for pictures again. Sorry I'm lame.

Eh, it's to much effort for me to ask in good conscience. If I could get to it I would post it in my photobucket account and redirect it here. Still I hate when they do that members only crap.

Is it a definite that Bugel is retiring? I know initially the report was that the signing of Shannahan would be put off to give Buges respect and allow him to retire withough being let go by Shanny. So, does anyone think that Shanny may be holding onto Buges?

SBXVII · 01-05-2010, 09:45 PM

No Smoot told me or Matty said something about putting wraps at the beginning and end and it should work. I just have not tried it since they told me.

I still don't know who the O-Line coach will be for the Redskins with Buges retiring (and yes for all we know he's retired). The thing about Alex Gibbs is that while he made his name with the Bronco's he left after 2003. Since then he's worked with the Falcons and until recently he's been with the Texans. Maybe he comes in, it would definitely be nice to have him.

Smootsmack:
Rick Dennison I believe

Ok basically the picture looks like someone took a photo of their TV. It shows DS and Shanahan sitting together in a restaraunt shaking hands with what appears to be the contract in front of them.

The poster says they believe Adam Schefter took the picture cause he and Shanahan are close friends and probably was invited to get the news first.

Alex Gibbs was in Denver the longest as OL coach. I think Dennison was there the last yr or last 2yrs Shanahan was there. I really would like for them to find a way to bring Alex Gibbs into the fold.

I'm happy with K.Shanahan, I'm really interested in:

OL coach
WR coach
RB coach
Special Teams coach.
