Kyle Shanahan returns to a familiar place Week 7, though according to his comments this week, his time in Washington was forgettable.
The 49ers head coach was previously the Redskins offensive coordinator from 2010-13. At a press conference this week, he said the best part of his tenure was "being able to work with [his] dad and be around some other good coaches," and the worst part was "everything else."
He probably doesn't have quite as many complaints about his time in San Francisco. The 49ers are 5-0 and have a great chance to remain NFC's only undefeated team this week when they face the Redskins, who picked up their first win last week.

49ers vs. Redskins schedule: What time is kickoff?
- Date: Sunday, Oct. 20
- Start time: 1 p.m. ET
The NFL has been keeping a rather unbalanced schedule in recent weeks, putting a litany of games in the early slot and leaving only a few for the late-afternoon.
That pattern holds true for Week 7. The 49ers and Redskins are one of eight games in the 1 p.m. slot, and one of the four early games on Fox. Washington has been in the 1 p.m. slot in each of its Sunday games this year, while San Francisco has only played in an early game once this season.
