Bart Starr. Joe Namath. Joe Montana. Troy Aikman. Warren Moon. They all smell like napalm in the morning. They all smell like victory. <br /><br />Notice that nary a one of the country's 10 most popular surnames is in Canton among the quarterbacks... so forget about Landry Jones. Jim Kelly is as close as you're going to get to a regular name -- and look at his record in the Super Bowl. But you can't have a totally weird last name either, unless you're Ben Rothlisberger. That's why I was on my hands and knees last year praying that the Skins wouldn't draft Blaine Gabbert. How could a guy with a name like that lead a fourth quarter TD drive? Answer: he can't. But a Jake Locker? An Andy Dalton or Cam Newton? They'll all have a shot, just because of their names. <br /><br />So let's look at the cool names in this year's draft. Andrew Luck -- you can't have a cooler name than that. RG3 -- nothing's cooler than being known by a couple of initials and a number. Sure, Brandon Weeden has a terrific arm and poise and stuff, but that name's going nowhere. Ryan Tannehill? Chandler Harnish? You can't be serious. <br /><br />That's why the Skins will go out and sign Matt Flynn. I don't know if the kid can play, but he's got the right name.patrickhenryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13197671906368657323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566606152366187003.post-39294323983673213092012-01-04T08:48:37.605-05:002012-01-04T08:48:37.605-05:00Reid is the affirmative action Wilbon replacement....Reid is the affirmative action Wilbon replacement.

The proble...Do not count on things getting better. The problem is Shanny is here in DC for the wrong reasons: to extend his legacy and help his son. Let's be honest - would he have taken the job if Snyder told him he couldn't hire his son? Probably not. And that should be enough to tell most fans things aren't going to get much better any time soon. The same problem applied to 3 of the other 4 head coaches Snyder has hired. Marty, The Ball Coach, Gibbs 2, and Shanny ALL brought their sons with them to the coaching staff. I have been railing on this for years (called your show a few times). <br /><br />You would think that Snyder - who has one thing over so many owners in the league in that he actually bought his team and didn't inherit it - would be wise to this conflict. But the problem Danny has with assessing player talent (falling in love with previous accomplishments) he also has with the coaches he hires. The Skins need a GM and coach whose entire reason for being in his respective job is to prove to the world he is the best - to win Super Bowls. <br /><br />Snyder should fire Shanahan and post an ad on the NFL's Job Openings page: Wanted. Head Coach, Anyone who isn't emotionally and professionally committed to winning it all and ONLY that goal at the expense of other considerations (like hiring one's son) need not apply.MChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10465560403114146237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566606152366187003.post-77730354984767271092012-01-03T19:18:42.078-05:002012-01-03T19:18:42.078-05:00The Skins need to invest in new uni's w/ shiny...The Skins need to invest in new uni's w/ shiny helmets.

What exactly is wrong w...Also want to mention this. What exactly is wrong with Kyle Shanahan ? Is it that we resent the fact that he is Mike's son? Believe me, he will be a hot commodity everywhere if we decide to fire him.<br /><br />The argument is that he had Matt Schaub as QB in Houston. Now i want to know, which coordinator is doing wonders with average QB's? They are all the same. If the QB is great, he makes every body look like genius. <br /><br />Kyle is crucified by those idiots Lavar and his boyfriend all the time. "His Play calling sucks, He is there only because of the dad". As if they know what to do in a given game situation.<br /><br />People like Jason Reid are so resentful of shanahan because he does not entertain their bullshit. Reid is still upset that Campbell was let go and McNabb was benched. It is not a football problem from where i see it. <br /><br />Please be reasonable. So what if we are late by one year in the rebuilding process? we have been sucking for a long long time. One year makes no difference to me.Srinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15083703375029577356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566606152366187003.post-54035799230819702482012-01-03T11:54:33.734-05:002012-01-03T11:54:33.734-05:00As a Packer fan, I so revel in your misery.

I'm so, so sorry.<br /><br />As for the Draft; Even if you traded up for Luck, Snydahan would totally screw it up, somehow;<br /> 1)Trade away 3 times the value or <br /> 2)turn Luck into a psychotic, cowering in a corner<br /><br />Lookin' forward to it!

I always thought you are the only smart guy...Czabe<br /><br />I always thought you are the only smart guy around in the DC Talk show area. This post is not helping really. If it was Jason Reid, i understand. But not from you.<br /><br />I support most of the moves by Shanahan. I Include McNabb trade as well. Who new McNabb was a fat, lazy idiot who cant understand what to do after 10 over years of career in the West Coast Offense? Should we have kept No brains Campbell instead? We were already retarded at QB.<br /><br />Regardless of what anyone says, i believe Rex was way better than McNabb and Campbell. There is no QB in the draft in 2011 or 2010. Sure Andy Dalton worked out in Cincy. But dont be so sure yet. Its just one year and Cincy Defense is incredible.<br /><br />I was listening to your show today and during your discussing about Indi, your colleague brought up Shanny as an example about depth. I agree with him. Shanahan did improve our team leaps and bounds. Imagine a situation where the only missing puzzle is the QB. and depth everywhere else. I believe after this year that will be the case if we dont get RG3. We can then trade up for any other QB in the draft. Whats wrong with that situation?<br /><br />We as redskins fan should know the reality that this team was no where close to competing for atleast 4 years when shanny took over. His fault was, he never mentioned the word rebuilding. I guess that was because Snyder wanted to still sell tickets.<br /><br />We have a good situation here regardless of the win loss column. Just look at Cowboys and eagles. atleast we can pick a better draft pick.<br /><br />Apologies for grammar mistakes.Srinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15083703375029577356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566606152366187003.post-46879044984836053912012-01-03T10:44:37.363-05:002012-01-03T10:44:37.363-05:00Get Flynn or Manning especially since they're ...Get Flynn or Manning especially since they're both ufa's. <br /><br />czabe- what should shanny have said " our qbs suck we have no hope".
