Mike Shanahan has just been named the new head coach of the Washington Redskins, a 5 year deal. There's already much opitimism, in the nations capitol, for upcoming 2010 NFL season.
Many believe that Mikes' hiring puts the Redskins back in the playoff picture. The Rams hiring of Steve Spagnuolo last off season (out the blue), may have caught some by surprise and after a less than thrilling (1-15) first season as Rams head coach, many Saint Louis fans are left with mixed emotions about his ability to lead the Rams in a positive direction.
The Rams had their chances when it came time to make the moves that would point them in that right direction. Shanahan should have been given the most consideration when the Rams were looking to hire a HC last year. In fact, at least 5 other choices should have been sought after before Spags.
In Washington its "Happy days are here again!", Meanwhile, In Saint Louis they can only kick themselves thinking about the 'One that got Away!'
