With the denial being exhibited by Schefter and Teej, I'm beginning to move from "Shanahan wouldn't be too bad a move" to "**** YES, bring on Shanny!"

And of course some of us want Shanahan. He's (a) one of the best available coaches, and (b) hiring him will irritate a lot of rival fans. If the Raiders had just dumped one of their iconic coaches, maybe that guy would merit consideration too. Unfortunately, Lane Kiffin and Art Shell and Bill Callahan aren't walking through that door.

Clayton:

There are sports reporters that will do stories simply to dismiss the rumors.

Did 9News get Shefter's quote wrong? I don't know. I did not look in to it. Most of the time, these types of rumors are used in blogs.

One of the most enjoyable reads on ESPN is written by Obudsman Le Anne Schreiber. She writes a well balanced critical column on ESPN.

In the latest column, "ESPN guilty of teller becoming the tale", by Le Anne Schreiber, she discusses four issues with ESPN in the past few weeks. In "Case 1: Denial," Le Anne calls out Chris Mortensen.

All my casino cash for a month to the person that photoshops a Chiefs helmet into TJs avatar.

That's a lot of work for 1 hand of blackjack.

Found one at the Mane...

It's this simple...if there was no interest in the job from Shanahan's perspective, he or his agent would've already came out in the media and denied it...just like they did with the Jets job.

I don't give a shit what Schefter says, until I hear a denial from Shanny or his agent, it's clear that he's in play.

I'm not worried about it... if Shanahan were to coach KC, I have 10 years worth of stuff from you guys that says it's a bad move. :clap:

I really don't understand why the Bronco fans are so up in arms about Shanahan possibly coming to KC... They just canned his ass. They have a new wonderkin as HC. Unless there is the nagging feeling that if Pioli wants Shanny then, perhaps the Broncos made a mistake? Insecurity? On Shanny's end, it's clear that KC is a desirable location, more so now than before.

I'm certainly not up in arms... I think most people would like to see their former coaches and players not end up on another team within the same division. But, if he were to choose KC, so be it.

I think I would be more annoyed if he chose a place like Dallas (if it were open), but if somehow he landed in KC - that wouldn't drive me crazy.

It's not like any team can just add Shanahan and 3 TSB of water and ... BOOM! Instant Championship!

Shanny is a great coach and he will have success elsewhere, I'd just rather it not be with a team in the division. If he does, oh well.

I like the coaching staff that McDaniels has put together though...

yeah, I think that's about what how I'd feel if the tables are turned. Sounds like Shanahan is not a real option for the Chiefs, so I guess it's moot.

Chucky's available.

I would love to see Herm coach the Raiders, Chargers, or Broncos.

Wait until you see your awesome special teams coach in action.

Not a good fit in KC though.

with what has come out about his relationship with players i dont want him ANYWHERE near this team
