Well actually, it was just 3 seasons for Shanahan, as he is not coaching this season.

You must also take into consideration the fact that he decided to go young mid-season, benching Plummer in favor of getting Cutler some game experience.

Look, the guy has three Super Bowl rings. He's an offensive mastermind. Do I think it was time for him to leave Denver?

Absolutely.

But he will land on his feet somewhere and he will coach a competitive team.
