When will we lose Kyle Shanahan....?
There has been much talk about Kyle heading off to become a HC in the League. Have we pontificated and Hognosticated When and Where will he go?
*The Bolts need a shot in the arm
**The Jags are in a lousy state of disarray
***The Cards have their wings clipped
Who knows? Kyle already has a thread here - BUT not in poll format.
Have at it............ Insert "where" he will end up in your response

Depending on how long MS stays here, I can see Kyle taking over. Based on the success he's had with the rookie's they brought in why start over? Washington is getting stacked to become a perennial powerhouse.
Of course, I thought that Greg Williams was going to take over for Gibbs after he was done. I, like others, thought that was part of the deal to bring him in in the first place. In hindsight, that was for the best. Could you image what Mara would have done to this team with "bounty gate?"

True as that may be....Kyle is not making that $$$ yet as OC. Thus someone could lure him away.
I would LOVE Shanny the Younger to STAY PUT in DC.

He stays. He has a very rare opportunity to work with an incredible wealth of quarterback talent, and a running back who appears to be an OC's dream. This is the kind of situation that any coach would kill to be in.
I suspect that dad will move aside for him in 2 or so years.

Can someone call Kyle and see how HE feels about all this.........??? He has been silent, thus far.

I'm biased ...
I think that Kyle stays - his stock might be good right now but he can stay and it's only going to get better
He might even get the job here as some have indicated
let me say this - Kyle, IN MY OPINION, is a good OC but he's JUST a good OC
I don't think he becomes a good HC AT THIS TIME
he's like a lot of good OCs or DCs - he should stay where he is
BUT ... that's just me
Kyle has adapted and changed and this offense has done well because of that - I remember when he was not able to do that
I don't think he's ready to be a HC ... at this time
I hope he leaves us - that would be fantastic but I think it's a mistake

Apart from some very biased fans, nobody really expects the Redskins to do well
This FO has zero credibility and needs new people to rebuild and manage the franchise
Thankfully, Kirk Cousins is no longer the QB
I think you cant downplay the father and son relationship. I really don't see Kyle leaving soon. I am pretty sure they both imagine Mike retiring after winning a SuperBowl or two. The window of opportunity is now for that to happen.
I think Kyle will have plenty of opportunity to get a HC job when Mike retires. Oh and coaching for the Skins as a coordinator pays more then most head coaching gigs elsewhere. I still think this is an ideal situation for Kyle until his father retires which I think would be within a 5 year window.

BINGO
and there you go .. spoiling an otherwise perfect 'opportunity' for us to have Kyle go and show he's NOT ready to be a HC ...

Yep I agree with herohamo, especially regarding the money situation. Snyder can afford to keep Kyle around. I'm sure there are other coordinators willing to take any job because they have to strike while the iron is hot. I don't think Kyle has to do that.
Honestly I have no idea if Kyle is prepared to be a HC and neither do any of you. The league is littered with examples of good coordinators who didn't have what it took to be the head coach. Its impossible to say for sure until you see the guy in action. That job is clearly about more than Xs and Os.
People can knock the "daddy connection" all they want. I say if Kyle has anything going for him though, its that he's been around a successful head coach his entire life. If he learned anything along the way, maybe it will help him take the next step.
Its amazing to be having this conversation at all though, considering the beating Kyle has taken around here the previous two years.

It's amazing what 5 weeks can do. People on here wanted him fired before the bye.
He was a goot OC in Houston and IMHO has been better here -- in that he changed his entire offense to work around RGIII.
Personally, if Danny boy is committed to the Shanahans, KS will stay and take over for his dad. I don't see that happening in the next year or even 2. Because MS is KS's dad, KS won't just take any job. He isn't going to take the Jacksonville job or KC -- but if the price and opportunity are correct, even MS will tell him to take an HC job; however I think that MS is smart enough to know that KS is not ready to be a HC just yet.
