I agree. But here he just hasn't done a good job with that position..McNabb, shoving that Beck crap down everyone's throat. We're two years in and still don't have a QB. So with such a crucial pick that they simply can't afford to miss on, everyone should have a say and hopefully everyone will.

I'll be honest if he wasn't MS then I'd be calling for a new coach, some of his decisions have just been down right stupid..

1. Trade JC
2. Trade for DM
3. Bring in Rex for DM
(Trade DM and don't draft a QB?)
4. Talk up Beck like he's the starter
5. Start Rex instead
6. Bench Rex for Beck
7. Bench Beck for Rex

ALL IN A 1 1/2 year span

WTF Dude????

Bingo. Honestly, I think a lot of people are riding Shanahan's reputation to justify his mistakes.

He made a lot of mistakes in Denver. Didn't get the axe until he refused to fire Slowik(hmmmmm, Dan might get the urge to fire Kyle....hmmmm).

His last few years in Denver were not real good and that's why he got fired. But I hope Snyder doesn't fire the guy. We need some stability around here. But I would not have him doing personel anymore cause he's proven that he can't get in done in that area. Let the scouts do their job.

Or maybe in a wider perspective, the mistakes are simply the result of little too much delusion and a coach being a coach(win at all costs). He is going through mental purging right now and probably has smelled the flowers. He has no choice but engage in a rebuild or suffer even more of his own personal embarassment(shutout, 5 losses in a row). If his ego is as big as it is, the wounds must be critical now and he would finally be motivated to build this team the right way. I'm willing to give him a chance to do that, and hopefully he does do that.

In his defense, I think much of what's been done already is a rebuild, other than the McNabb trade. I think we should give him more credit for foresight than we do. He was out of coaching for a year & had a lot of time to study. He knew this team was a mess, a lot of that has changed even if we're not seeing wins.

1. A lot of people thought we should trade JC and JC was on the block well before Shannhy showed up
2. Didn't mind that but there should have been a move to develop someone
3. I don't know that he brought him in for DM, but as mentioned in #2, there should be someone they could develop
4. I don't think he ever hyped Beck up publically as much as others did
5. Staring Rex over Beck is always the right move
6 and 7. QB Shuffling is historically par for the course here, even in our best years

Yeah
#1- I think we as fans were tired of JC as well. Atleast I was and still am.
#4- I wonder what exactly Beck was told cause I think it was more Beck hyping himself prior to the season saying he would be the starter.
