I was at the Greenbriar in (by god) WV this weekend. My wife and I were in the casino getting ready to cash out when i noticed the person in front of me in the line was Mike Shanahan. Of course my wife was ecstatic(redskins fan) but he asked what our names where and I of course let him know I was a panthers fan. He said I should be real happy where the franchise was is headed ( and I am ) and stated that Cam changed the way he viewed quarter backs.

I then asked him if he thought he gave up too much to move up to pick RGII and that I thought he did. He paused and answered, "would you have gave that much up for Cam", i said "knowing what I know now yes but we didn't have to and nobody at the time even knew how well he would transition to the nfl". he replied "I think he handled that really well." he said he thought RGII had a lot of the same skill set as Cam and is excited." I then said " but two firsts and a second round pick?" He said "Well you have to have a franchise quarter back and I'm sure you understand that" (smart ass) He said "they did their home work and he thinks it will work out but if it didn't it would set their franchise back 10 years". I was cordial and shook his hand and wished him luck...

Anyway, just a tid bit of personal first hand information...

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
