It was his skill as an offensive mind that garnered Shanahan the attention of maverick owner. After Shanahan and the Raiders parted ways in 1989, Shanahan returned to the Broncos as an assistant. He was fired several years later by Reeves after finding himself in the middle of a growing feud between Reeves and quarterback.

Los Angeles Raiders Shanahan was hired by the Raiders in 1988 to replace longtime Raiders coach. He was the Raiders' first head coach hired from outside the organization since Davis himself 23 years earlier. Shanahan (who proved very unpopular with the players) and the micromanaging Davis clashed almost immediately, and this was only exacerbated after the Raiders finished a disappointing 7–9, losing four of their last five games. Tensions increased towards the end of the season when wide receivers coach and Shanahan loyalist got into a heated argument with assistant coach (a Davis loyalist) in which Nicolau reportedly accused Shell of only having a job by virtue of his friendship with Davis. When Shell went to Davis later to ask if this was true, Davis' response was to immediately fire Nicolau. Shanahan responded by firing running backs coach and offensive coordinator (both Davis hires), but Davis ordered them both back to work. At the end of the season, Shanahan fired defensive assistants.

An enraged Davis re-hired Brown to a different position in the organization. When the Raiders began 1–3 in 1989, Shanahan himself was fired and replaced by Shell. Shanahan's final Raiders record was 8–12 in less than two seasons, going 2–7 after a 6–5 start.San Francisco 49ers In 1992, Shanahan was hired as offensive coordinator for the under Head Coach, capping his rise with a victory in after the 1994 season. His years under Seifert placed him in the. In 1994 while coaching for the 49ers,Shanahan added to the ongoing feud between him and owner when he had then QB throw a football at Davis' head, which missed by a few inches as Davis was able to dodge it just in time, afterwards Davis responded with an obscene gesture. Denver Broncos Shanahan's success with the 49ers earned him a head coaching spot once more, this time back in Denver with the Broncos beginning in 1995. He led the Broncos to back-to-back Super Bowl championships in the 1997 and 1998 seasons, during which time the Broncos set a then-record for victories in two seasons.Between 1996–1998, the Broncos set the NFL record for victories by going 46–10 over a three-year span.

The won their first 13 games on their way to a 14–2 mark. Shanahan, taking his cue from guru Bill Walsh, was well known for scripting the first 15 offensive plays of the game, and helped the 1998 Broncos set an NFL record for first quarter points scored in a season. In 2005, he passed as the winningest coach in franchise history. Shanahan is known for a run-heavy variation of the West Coast offense he coached in San Francisco. He has often found unheralded from later rounds of the annual and then turned them into league-leading rushers behind small-but-powerful offensive lines. Examples of this phenomenon are, and, all of whom have had at least one 1,000-yard season in a Denver uniform during Shanahan's tenure.In 1999, with the assistance of writer, Shanahan penned Think Like a Champion, a motivational book about leadership.

It was published. In 2006, he cooperated with 's endeavor to spend a year as a Broncos place-kicker, and much of the resulting book (2008) covers Shanahan's coaching from the player's point of view.After Elway's retirement and Davis' career-ending injuries, Shanahan went seven years without a playoff win (including three seasons when the Broncos failed to qualify for the postseason), a drought which caused criticism from fans. The playoff drought ended during the 2005–06 postseason when the Broncos defeated the two-time defending champion in the of the playoffs at. The victory, however, would be Shanahan's last playoff win as a head coach.Shanahan was fired after the following a collapse that caused the Broncos to miss the playoffs for a third consecutive year. Although the Broncos held an 8–5 record by Week 14 and would have won the with one more victory, the team lost their remaining three games and the 8–8 won the division on a tiebreaker.Washington Redskins. Mike Shanahan at an Open Practice on August 5, 2010 at Redskins Park in Ashburn, VAIn the early part of the 2009 season, it was reported that the Washington Redskins were interested in naming Shanahan their head coach, replacing. Although this was reported by several media outlets, the Redskins' Vice President of Football Operations, stated that a coaching change would not be considered until the end of the season.

On November 18, 2009 ESPN's reported that the Buffalo Bills had contacted Shanahan about their head coaching vacancy after the team parted ways with former coach.On January 5, 2010, Shanahan was formally introduced as the Redskins' 24th full-time head coach. As part of the deal, he was also named vice president of football operations, with the final say on football matters. He was one of several coaches who also had the title or powers of general manager, along with 's and others. Shanahan was signed to a five-year, $35 million contract. Several months earlier, was named the team's general manager. Shanahan and Allen split the duties held by a general manager, with Shanahan having the final say. This model is similar to how Belichick and worked during their eight years in New England.Shanahan's son, became the offensive coordinator of the Washington Redskins on January 20, 2010.Shanahan had a combined 11–21 record in his first two seasons as Redskins coach, followed by a 3–6 start to the 2012 season, but ended the year with a seven-game winning streak on the way to the team's first title and home playoff game since the 1999 season.

During this season Shanahan also continued his trend of developing unheralded draft picks into 1000-yard rushers, with the 6th-rounder. The Redskins lost in the Wild Card round of the 2012 NFL Playoffs to the by a score of 14–24, during which his quarterback sustained a tear of his LCL and a damaged ACL to his previously injured knee. Shanahan came under criticism for his handling of the injury, both in bringing Griffin back to play after the initial injury on Dec 9 and keeping him in the game against the Seahawks after reinjuring the knee. While there were reports in December 2012 that the Redskins were considering negotiating a contract extension with Shanahan in the 2013 offseason, this did not happen and there were later reports that Shanahan had considered resigning after the end of the year.Griffin underwent reconstructive surgery of his knee on January 9 and returned as the starter for the beginning of the 2013–2014 season, though Shanahan held him out of the preseason to protect him from further injury. The team continued to struggle in 2013. With the final three games of the regular season, Shanahan decided to make Griffin inactive for the rest of the season because Shanahan thought it was best for both Griffin's and the Redskins' future.Redskins owner fired Shanahan on December 30, 2013.

LANDOVER, Md. — didn’t join his San Francisco 49ers players in celebrating Sunday’s soggy victory over the by sliding across the rain-soaked turf at FedEx Field, belly-flop style. The coach of the NFC’s only unbeaten team said, both before and after, that the outcome of the game had nothing to do with his history with the Redskins.But Shanahan clearly savored the 9-0 win, which improved the 49ers’ record to 6-0.

According to 49ers tight end George Kittle, Shanahan awarded a game ball to his father, Mike, whose head coaching tenure with the Redskins ended on less-than-friendly terms.“Pretty special,” Kittle said. “We were aware,” Kittle said. “Definitely it was a game that we wanted to win both for him and Mike Shanahan.”The game was as inelegant as it gets and undoubtedly not what Kyle Shanahan had in mind when he envisioned a triumphant return to FedEx Field as the head coach of an undefeated team. But he wasn’t complaining.“I’ve been in a number of buildings, and not all of it always ends good,” Shanahan said after the game. “But it had nothing to do with the game. Everyone’s a little more sensitive when things involve your family. So that’s why I’m always a little more sensitive to this with my dad here.

And that’s why it was nice to get the win. But it had nothing to do with the game, has nothing to do with the score. But you always want to take care of things the right way when you’re bothered by how some things have been for a family member.”Shanahan, the offensive coordinator for the Redskins during his father’s head coaching tenure from 2010 to 2013, had upped the stakes during the week by saying that working for his dad had been his favorite part of his time in Washington and “everything else” had been his least favorite part. Shanahan said he had moved on and this game wasn’t personal to him. But did anyone believe that?Shanahan said Sunday he certainly enjoyed watching 49ers players celebrate the win with what amounted to rain angels on the wet turf following a game-ending sack by rookie defensive end Nick Bosa.

“It was definitely fun watching our whole team slide across the field there,” Shanahan said. “I enjoyed watching that.”Asked whether he had considered joining the players, Shanahan said: “I did think about it, yeah. But I don’t think I would have done it right.”The 49ers forged the victory on a trio of second-half field goals by kicker Robbie Gould as they and the Redskins sloshed around on a waterlogged field drenched by persistent rain.“It was fun,” cornerback said. “It was Mud Bowl 2019 champions, you know what I mean?”The 49ers have put themselves in contention in the jumbled NFC, in Year 3 of a rebuilding project overseen by Shanahan and General Manager John Lynch, because they are a balanced and versatile team able to win in a variety of ways. They entered this week’s play ranked second in the NFL in total defense and third in total offense.They were tested Sunday by the conditions as much as by the Redskins. Passing was an adventure. Any change of direction was challenging.

The water was pooling on the playing surface in spots and the players were splashing around when they ran and, especially, when they landed on the turf. The sloppy conditions were severely limiting to both teams’ offenses and probably helped the Redskins to close the competitive gap.“That weather was as bad weather as we’ve played in since we’ve been here,” Shanahan said, “combined with that field, just how the field always is.”Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo threw for only 151 yards on 12-for-21 passing for the 49ers.“I’ve played in rain my whole life,” Garoppolo said. “So it wasn’t anything crazy.”That was just enough as Gould connected from 28, 22 and 29 yards. The San Francisco defense limited the Redskins to 154 total yards and made two big plays against tailback, stopping him on a fourth-down carry in the first half and forcing him into a second-half fumble.“It’s never going to be pretty,” 49ers defensive tackle DeForest Buckner said. “It’s the NFL. It doesn’t matter who you go against.

San Francisco 49ers Head Coach

Everybody’s good. You’ve just got to find a way to win. That’s the objective. I felt like it didn’t matter. Three field goals and they didn’t score? I mean, I’ll take it.”Related Articles.It has, indeed, been a find-a-way-to-win type of season for the 49ers. That’s precisely what they did Sunday in Landover.“We were down seven starters today,” Sherman said.

Krystal Shanahan

“When you’re down seven starters, you would think, hey, you’re not going to play your best football. And in a game like this, we played pretty good under the circumstances.”Those circumstances made the day trying and then rewarding for the 49ers.“I think guys had a lot of fun, slipping and sliding out there,” Sherman said. “Winning is always fun.”.
