Yeah, RedBull types as if Mike was coaching in Detroit... he called all the shots in Denver and had an owner that let him do as he pleased.

OK, but other than having a Running game, putting vasoline on players uniforms, cut blocking, and watching Elway pull inhuman throws out of his arse, what great coaching feat did he complete before taking over GM responsibilities?

ADDENDUM: Said plane crashes in to Shanahan's new digs, taking him out as well. It's for your own good Chiefs Nation. |

Because of that great team and a HOF QB. His teams have been less than inspiring since. The tactics of his sb teams 10 yrs ago taint that imho.

You say he wants power. Only on the raiders do you have less power as HC than Dallas. Jerry Jones runs everything on that team. |

I think he's a good coach who should of stayed focused on coaching and stayed away from personnel. That and he needs to stay away from defense. |

You know what? **** this; it's time to get serious. I was hoping someone would hit on this but since there are no takers present, I'm gonna' do the job.
When the Chiefs won the Super Bowl, they came back the next year, moved in to a new stadium, and haven't seen a Super Bowl since. When Denver won their 2nd title, the same thing happened. When you have a Championship Franchise, you don't sit on your ass in the off season and hope for another repeat. We've hired a guy who's only purpose in life is to build that Championship Team, and keep the roster moving along through the years so that a backslide is avoided. Mike Shanahan does NOT know how to do this. And I don't think for a NY-Minute that he's going to just sit back and be happy with whatever players Pioli sends his way. The guy couldn't control Cutler to keep that Douche from embarrassing himself and the franchise either. It's also obvious he doesn't know how to get his players fired-up either. His "burst" is G-O-N-E. Shanahan to KC? I'd rather drink cat-piss. |

I personally think Shanahan was building a Superbowl team in Denver. It's true that he's let the defense go while he focused his efforts on offense - especially the last two years when he liquidated Jake Plummer and started to build a team around Jay Cutler. But right now the Broncos have a powerful young offense and we're moving into this offseason with more cap money and draft picks than we've had in a decade to spend primarily on defense... And at that, Shanahan's personnel guy (Goodman) has done a superb job the last two years - probably better than anyone in the league. You'll note that while Shanahan was fired, we kept his personnel guy - effectively making him the team's GM.
