Who's your pick's for next HC, DC and OC?

One thing that we all should now about football right now as fans is that paying more for your players does not ensure you of better players.

The cap penalty took away a number of opportunities to get better. But at 1-4, the problem is that we have done a poor job taking advantage of the opportunities we get every Sunday. If your argument is really that our dealt hand was so crappy that it can not be overcome, you're probably an excuse-maker.

We aren't 1-4 due to lack of talent. That much I'll say first and foremost.

I honestly do not believe the Redskins are very talented compared to the rest of the NFL.

I just think the Redskins really have nothing to be proud of at this point and time. They really do nothing well. They are almost the Jaguars. Even the Jaguars made the Denver game competitive for a half and they picked of Manning and he only had two touchdown passes. I'm not sure the Redskins could accomplish any of that.

When RG3 isn't great, like he was last year... you are seeing the results.

Yeah I could totally see the Jags putting together a 7 game win streak.

Griffin was great last year but he didn't do it alone.

So you can see this Redskins team putting together a 7 game winning streak?

They key word here is "opportunity" ...there is no guarantee that if we were able to bring in free agents our record would be any different. The roster is already loaded with free agents on both sides of the ball.

Hmmm.....Indy doing hurry up with 9 minutes. Never mind. Fire the Shanahan's!

I feel like the $36 million penalty hurt us, but trading away 2 firsts is worse.

Yes.

You can't get those picks back. You're forced to develop RG3 into the kind of star that three top picks cannot replace. That is really hard to do. But it is what the Redskins signed up for.

[skinsfaninok]

We have talent , we won 10 games just a season ago

[CultBrennan59]

We have some talent thats all I'll say.

[CultBrennan59]

Seriously though Matty, jokes aside, you realllly think we could go on a 7 game winning streak?

Next thing you're going to say is that we'll beat Denver.

Did we think they could do it last year when they were 3-6?

Despite what some are clamoring for, I doubt Snyder fires Shanny unless the bottom completely falls out (4-12 type) and/or there is major dissension between him and RG3. He promised 5 yrs and if fires a well regarded NFL coaching lifer then he's basically affirming everything bad people inside the game and out have said about him and the organization since he bought the team.

That being said, IF he does that then look for someone who runs an up-tempo/no huddle/spread scheme that Griffin reportedly prefers or someone with a strong defensive background (Zimmer or Ray Horton comes to mind) or a shot at a Belichick/Carroll round 2 type who flamed out once but was well regarded (Spagnuolo, Childress, Wisenhunt) who are chomping at a second chance to prove themselves.

I can't see Snyder going the college route again after Spurrier and not the retread route either after Schottenheimer, Gibbs and Shanahan.

Honestly, I'm not excited about any of them.. With no first round pick and a number of starters with expiring contracts, I'm Rod Gardner (50-50) on if this offseason is the time to be making such a big change.

If he sits idle while Shanahan wastes another season of his investment in RG3, that's pretty much the mark of an owner who doesn't have the balls to stand up for himself.
