Most fans probably aren't. Certainly dealt with a few vocal ones here however.

He's definitely not flawless, and I also think his role in the organization is outsized here (which is a good and bad thing).

Every coach has some flaws. Belichick was a bad judge of offensive talent and drafted poorly. I'm sure he hit on a couple guys but drafting wasn't his strength. Defensive schemes were his forte. Andy Reid is considered a top coach but the Chiefs haven't had great drafts either. One reason is its harder to find great players when you draft near the end of each round. On top of that when you win your players start demanding more money and leave when they don't get it.

Honest question.

Ben Johnson would have been a great fit when that question was asked a couple years ago, but people just laughed. Oh and Super Bowl winner Mike Macdonald's name was also brought up, but again the Kyle cult just laughed.

so why ask that question ? The Kyle supporters will laugh it off and find reasons that certain candidates would not be good fits….only to watch those same candidates have more success than guy in 1/10 the seasons he coached
Stop lying, especially the Mac part lol

Dude is such a troll.

Ben Johnson has shown he has the capability of being a good HC, at least in my opinion. Obviously MacDonald has too.

The bottom line is the fire Shanahan crowd has really no good argument to fire Shanahan other than he hasn't won a SB. He's been one of the absolute best HC's throughout his tenure here, and he's the organization's most valuable asset. Anybody with an ounce of football sense understands this.

Shouldn't that be the only argument when you've been coaching for a decade with nothing to show for it ? Or are we going to start showcasing all our runner up medals to prove he's a winner
