Running Game A Priority For Redskins Head Coach Mike Shanahan

Discussion in 'Washington Redskins' started by BigBlueBruiser, Jan 11, 2010.

  1. For all Shanahan's success as a head coach, though -- the two Super Bowl titles and four division championships -- he is known, more than anything else, as an offensive innovator. Twice during his 14-year tenure in Denver, the Broncos led the league in total offense. Seven of those seasons his offenses ranked in the top three. And though the defining player from his career there is undoubtedly Hall of Fame quarterback John Elway, Shanahan's offense -- the offense he will ostensibly bring to Washington, where the Redskins have ranked in the top three in total offense just once in the past 15 years -- is based on the premise that running the ball, and sticking with the run, is paramount to opening up anything else.

    Good plan. Especially since you have an average quarterback.
