I always wondered why this is such an oddity.

Shouldn’t every coach do this.

Many coaches are toolbags like Brad Childress who believe THEIR system is the Be-All End-All of the universe, so you can put any group of jackasses in there and they’ll win of course. See also: Jon Gruden, Andy Reid, Mike Martz

but Mike Shanahan completely reinvented his offense to play to his personnel’s strengths and has the Skins on a 7 game win streak into the playoffs….

I always wondered why this is such an oddity.

Shouldn’t every coach do this.

Wild Card Home dogs in the Playoffs are money (See 7-9 Seattle, last year’s broncos).

It seems every year their is a “sexy” wildcard team that everyone and their mother pencils in for the Divisonsal round, only to get beat by the home team.

His pudgy fingers are all over a lot of personnel decisions.

He’s not a fingers guys, he’s a feet guy.

Andy Fucking Dalton. I’d lay the points up to 6.5. On my book’s website, it’s already up to 5.

That game will absolutely be one-score.

all road teams, huh? good luck with that.

Bengals either win or lose by a FG, Houston looks not very good lately.
Vikings lose by less than 9.5 seems very likely.
Baltimore sucking lately, Indy playing inspired ball, Ravens win by less than 7.
A hot Seattle team has the advantage over a gimpy RG3, and has the defense to shut down Morris. Seattle wins by more than 3.

In fact, I just put my fake bet in to my fake bookie.

did he coach enough games to be eligible?

/probably a dumb question
//just give it to him

also, not sure how much of the skins’ offensive scheme is owed to lil’ shanny and not his dad, or at least a combination of the two.

I mean seriously, Seattle…a team that has been absolutely mediocre on the road

While it’s no secret they are a better team at home, they lost 4 road games in the first 8 weeks, with a rookie QB who is playing very well lately, a very strong defensive pass rush and secondary, and a strong running game. I’m not a gambler (at least on sports) but I don’t think it’s a lock the Redskins win.

I know I’m gonna sound like a generic color commentator but what a job he’s done. Who else re-tools their entire scheme like that (and makes it work), especially after said scheme had been successful for nearly 20 years?

Bengals
Vikings
Colts
Seahawks

all road teams, huh? good luck with that.

i was hoping we could convince you.

Nope. But I am extremely confident in a Skins win on Sunday…far more confident than I was about last nite.
