Elway wasn't a Hall of Famer until he played for Shanahan? John Lynch? Champ Bailey? Shannon Sharpe? Look at the record books. These guys were either HOF caliber or well on their way prior to Shanny being head coach in Denver.

The Skins have consistently had one of the top-rated defenses in the league. I'm not sure that will be the case with the 3-4 given the personnel they have. They are talking about using Landry more in blitz packages. The problem is who the hell do they have in the secondary who can cover besides Hall? It was so bad last year they resorted to using Smoot as a free safety.

Gibbs and Spurrier had seasons that were almost as bad. Remember when Marty lost the first five games?

Here's the deal. Snyder won't wait a few years. He'll start firing people at the end of this season if they don't make the playoffs. Just watch.
