Last was a great season but by no means were we a top tier team, we had to win 7 in a row to win the division. Synder would be dumb to fire Mike, if I was him I would extend him during the bye week to make all this talk go away. Now firing Haslet and shaking up coaching staff I could see, but no to firing Mike.

That is exactly the way I feel about where the rebuilding of the Skins stands. I think that we have been set back by the unfair cap penalties and the serious injury to our Franchise QB.
With those two major impediments in mind, I came into this season feeling that I would be satisfied with whatever I could get out of the Skins this season. I still feel that way.
I anticipate that we'll add some top talent in free agency and have another good draft before next season. By that time, RGIII should be fully recovered. Then I'll expect much more.
In no way has anything that has happened so far this season shaken my faith in the direction the franchise is heading or in the primary people who are leading the way, namely Mike Shanahan and Bruce Allen.
On the other hand, I would have no problem if the coordinators were to leave and be replaced. I was never a fan of Haslett. IMO, he hasn't done a good enough job to be retained. As for Kyle, if there is in fact fundamental disagreement between Kyle and Mike about how the offense should be run, then Kyle should do the right thing and find another job after this season.
