Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying he wouldn't coach the Chiefs.

There's no reason to do that other than pettiness - a sentiment totally foreign to those he has already expressed regarding Bowlen.

It is in his contract that if he got a job he would have to pay the difference for the next 3 years IIRC. I believe he owes Shanahan $7 million a year.
