Better that than somebody else's wife......oops....wrong coach ; )Rex is probably watching in bed at home licking champagne off
his wife's
exquisite toes.
I'm no fan of Shananan (I like the Jints) but some "Redskin things" from an NFC East perspective:
1. Hire a high profile coach to manage your shambles of a football operation.
2. Force that coach to make a huge trade up that will cripple the football operation even more if it fails.
3. Fire the coach when the huge trade up fails and cripples the football operations.
Remember THE Washington Redskins?....George Allen?...the "over-the-hill-gang?...the "hogs?"....Kilmer?...Larry Brown?...Mouthy Joe Theisman...Darrell Green?...perennial playoff contenders??
The Redskins problem? Not so much Shanahan, nor RGIII.
Dan Snyder is the problem.
The Redskins are 102-136 in the 15 years this tool has owned the team. They are about to hire their 8th coach in 15 years. This including the fact that Joe Gibbs managed to stay on the job for 4 years.
Browns:
Firing Chudzinki after 1 season? When your best player (Joe Thomas) calls it a bonehead move? That's what lousy organizations do and why the Browns in 15 years have 1 playoff spot to show for it. Does the name Belichick ring a bell Cleveland?
Lions:
Giants with nothing to play for beat 'em in Detroit, knocking the Lions out of the playoffs. Schwartz sucks plain and simple. Remember how he cried like a baby in the post-game presser over Harbaugh's "overzealous" handshake at the end of a Lions-49'ers game? Can you imagine a Belichick doing that? Best WR, Reggie Bush, ferocious front 4 (even if they are a tad "dirty) and whatever you think of Stafford, etc., and this guy couldn't pull it together.
Tampa Bay:
Hey Darrelle Revis: was leaving the media-scripted "Circus" (Jets) for greener pastures money-wise and otherwise worth it? How about the mostly vanilla coverage packages TB played? Enjoy your non-guaranteed contract (pray you stay healthy). Your old coach who got the best out of you mostly playing press man coverage has a .525 winning record (.667 playoffs) and technically only 1 losing season in his 5 years as HC with didly-squat at QB fwiw. Hope the money was worth that 4-12 Darrelle; there's your "circus." Does Schiano return to "the U" as a DC under Al Golden? Does Al Golden leave the U for Penn St. now that Houston looks like they're going to go after Bill O'Brien?
Giants:
I dont think (jmho) Jerry Reese shows Coughlin the door (2 recent SBs). Coughlin will go out on his own terms (at worst he'll announce his retirement maybe after next year). He's earned it. Started 0-6 (ouch!) but bounced back going 7-3 after that. Acknowledging that injuries are part of the game, it should be noted that the Jints got the bug as bad as anyone: 14 were officially placed on IR (7 of them starters). The Giants used 63 players this year, 4 short of the NFL record. Eli's offensive line was offensive as in brutal with JAGs replacing IR players (some of which were post-prime). He himself forced too many throws. Only OL that played decent (after getting schooled in the beginning) was the rookie out of Syracuse, Pugh.
Defense was decent after that 0-6 start....offense (OL, TE, RB, WR, you name it) needs Reese to fill in the (many) blanks.
