In what Shanahan insisted beforehand was a “must-win” game, the Redskins committed 13 penalties, gave up an 82-yard pass, watched Robert Griffin III stuffed on a fourth-and-goal and lost 21-13 yesterday to Cam Newton and the Panthers.
It was the Redskins’ third consecutive defeat and dropped them to 3-6.
“You lose a game like that, now you’re playing to see who obviously is going to be on your football team for years to come. I’ll get a chance to evaluate players and see where we’re at,” Shanahan said.

Of course after saying that, the Skins go on a two game win streak.

Sounds like he put the team on notice and even said they where still in the race and that peoples starting spots where on the line. I am looking for where he said the season was over.
