I never understood the deep-rooted hatred for Jim Fassel. This was a guy who had a winning record against each of his NFC East opponents and guided his team to the Super Bowl. He accomplished way more than any coach in Washington has done since 1991, that's for sure.
When you look at the people who have had second chances at being head coach (Dave Wanstedt, Norv Turner, Art Shell) it's mystifying as to why Fassel hasn't had a second shot.
