It is amusing to watch Mortensen and Schefter ride his coattails now, though. Where were these guys 20 days ago?

I dunno, they probably weren't in the bathroom pulling rampant speculation out of their asses like your butt buddy though.

He appears to be wrong in this case.

Right. When he talked to Schefter yesterday, which he almost certainly did, he either told him the truth, or lied to him on orders from Pioli.

Perhaps. Nothing official has come out yet, and right now it's Schefter's sources against Mort's sources.

I am starting to have my doubts

I just love it that the Chiefs are causing a fight.

With the SB right around the corner what are the chances we'll even hear anything about our new HC hiring till after the big game? Doesn't the NFL have a rule against non SB related announcements within a certain timeframe of the game? Just curious.....

Schefter said that his sources aren't DIRECTLY INVOLVED, they're on the periphery.

BIG difference.

Well, Schefter was acting like it was a joke to even consider the possibility, and it looks like it's more than just a possibility. Shanahan pretty much clowned him.

Schefter is backtracking? lol. This is entirely confusing. I love it.

That's not what he said yesterday. He implied that he had just talked to Shanahan by dropping the nugget that Shanahan had just got done with his morning workout on the tread mill.

A league source said that Hunt has focused on Shanahan after hiring Scott Pioli as the team's general manager. The source said Hunt did research on the last 19 coaches who have been hired in the NFL and determined their average salary to range between $2 million and $3 million, which would be an acceptable proposal by the NFL Management Council. Broncos owner Pat Bowlen would be obligated to pay the balance of Shanahan's three-year contract at approximately $6.5 million per year.
That would be funny.

Well that's what he said just a bit ago on NFL Radio.

Yea, because Mr. No name gets all the good scoops, that is if you don't pay attention to what that clown actually says. Athan knows less than most average fans and it shows. To pretend he does, makes you foolhardy.

He just sounded eager to go somewhere that will win quickly and he didn't sound too confident the Chiefs were going to be the team to do that. It was just in his tone and hesitation.
