I'm not hating, I just expect a game plan to be put together by our coaching staff that gives our players the best chance to execute and win the game. Kyle shanahan has failed to put forth such a Consistent game plan on a week to week basis the past few years.

I really don't think it's too unreasonable to expect that from our coaching staff.

I'm not even talking about execution here. I'm talking about game plans and play calling. It's no secret that once Helu was started, that he was a consistent weapon and produced positive results while given the ball. We often strayed from the running game though. That is a Result of poor play calling and game plan by our OC. Instead we chose to give the ball to a qb who has the highest turnover ration in nfl history for qbs who's played as long as him.

This year we have a rookie qb. It would be likely that Griffin won't be extremely efficient in this offense in the beginning of the year, if all year. I think it would be wise to use players such as Helu, Davis, Cooley and throw shorter passes to our wrs. Occasionally, we will push the ball downfield but I would hope that Kyle and Mike don't expect Griffin to look like Elway or Schaub in this offense. I hope they choose a more efficient offense for our young qb and one that relies heavily on the ground game with Helu, Royster and hopefully Hightower.

You know, similar to how the Panthers ran their offense for Cam
newton last year!

I think Mike Shanahan was a great game planner a decade ago or 15 years ago, I think his son has too much control and influence on what this team does and as a result, as the redskins HC Mke's game plans aren't what they used to be.

He used to be a run first coach, even when he had great qbs, now the offense is pass first, despite not having great qbs.

Basically, we are the training center for Kyle, and Daddy is "willing to stake his reputation on that!"

Moss and Cooley are looking to be healthy in 2012 and to have bounce back seasons.

No one else thinks that Paul's transition to TE is a set up for allowing Davis to leave? It would possibly set up a 2014 3rd round compensatory pick (provided we are quiet in 2013 free agency ... which is somewhat unlikely).
