In one of his most open news conferences since joining the Redskins – a 22-minute session in which Shanahan talked about everything from Robert Griffin III, his success and failure as a coach, criticisms of himself, his father – Shanahan said that he does, however, wish at times that his body of work stood out more than his last name.
***
In his six seasons as offensive coordinator, Shanahan has directed units that have ranked among the top 10 in the league four separate seasons. Despite this season’s struggles, Washington ranks ninth in total offense.

OK, so is this just totally ridiculous, that is considering young Shanny as the Texans' new HC ? He obviously has a history with the owner and the GM so he's a known quantity, and this would certainly be very controversial and probably on balance quite unpopular but could it be a savvy move ?
If you think both Kubiak and his system (WCO/ZB) were the problem, you wouldn't go for this deal, but if the owner is sincere and believes there's a lot of pieces already in place, maybe retention of the current offense with a new and a different guy running it plus a new QB would be the answer ?
