Some optimism on the 'Shanaplan'

[Bucket]

You guys are funny..

So Shanahan was suppose to come out in the first press conference this year and just say..

"Hey guys, look.. I understand we have two mediocre QB's on this football team, but I'm hoping for the best and that we can win a few games with talent around him untill we can draft our QB in 2012. Since we went for defense in this draft"

I'm sorry, but you guys act like he's suppose to come out and throw his team under the bus lol. He's the head coach, and would you want to play for a guy that basically would just say you suck or you're not good enough to play? What coach in the NFL actually says he's not confident in his team/players?

Of fcking course he would state his reputation on his QB's.. It's his freaking football team...Get a brain!!!!!! I'm so tired of reading half wit comments.

Well, if Shanahan knows whether he was wrong or not in thinking so highly of Beck, I guess he knows better now. Of course he's not going to admit that he was wrong. But with all of the pop warner level QB play this season, and the criticism that Shanahan, Beck, and Grossman has received, you would think that he would draft a QB in the 2012 draft.

You have 31 other head coaches in the NFL that would not have gone with either Beck or Grossman atop their teams depth charts. So Shanahan was either planning to lose this year in order to draft high the next off season because he knew the level of collegiate QBs was going to be there for him, or he's a moron who doesn't know quarterbacks.

Hate to be cliche but actions speak louder than words. The fact that neither are signed past this season or to significant money clearly indicates they weren't viewed as anything long term. You always want to win but smart planning says win as much as you can with what you have even if they are just here as a placeholder.

Im going to go with this statement.
Ask any Denver fan,the thing that got Shanahan fired was his talent evaluation,not his coaching

Seattle might have gone with Grossman, he is better than T. Jackson.

Exactly. The media fueled this Beck thing. Of course, MS is going to come out and talk highly of his QB's. I think he's smart enough to know a good QB when he sees one.

Yes, people see too much into coach speak and player speak for that matter.
