I know Shanny's overall record doesn't justify a 5th year here. I know our D and ST are ****. But now you're saying the offense is no good and others are talking about Shanny's "relationship" with RG3 as a factor in this situation?
This is classic Redskins under Snyder's ownership. Historical revisionism and blame-gaming.
Sure, let's fire another coach early, and be a circus here about "how it really went down".
No wonder we're a ****ing laughingstock.

Okay, so "revisionism" is pointing to 2012 and building an argument about how good our offense was in a sample less than half the length of which we have struggled in this year. Taking four years as a whole and pointing out that the passing game has not been good throughout many different factors is not revisionism, it is analysis. They have been worse then their average this year.
In short, we have been bad at throwing the football since the Shanahan's got here. We have been worse more recently.
With their successes last year, Mike, Kyle, Jim et al earned the right to have 2013 be the deciding year on their tenure here. That's what they earned by winning the NFC East in 2012. We're at the end of 2013 now and, well, you have to wait a week for the verdict to be read, but no one thinks it's in doubt.
