Hoping the Pirates ship is sinking. It’s only a matter of time.

One big difference with how Walsh and Shaw treats players: Walsh had no problem having a younger player pass over an established “veteran” starter. If the younger guy was better, he got the nod. Shaw sticks much longer with the “veteran”. 

At the NFL level, Walsh was well known for a philosophy of getting rid of a veteran player the year before Walsh assumed the player was done. As opposed to the year after the player proved he was done. Not a criticism btw. The NFL is a business. 

Yeah, but what does that have to do with how he treats them as human beings?
