Seems like Dan Snyder is trying his ass off to get Shanahan before Wade Phillips gets fired.

I guess Shanahan really isn't to thrilled with the idea of following Jay Cutler to Chicago. The reports that he flirted with the idea of trading Cutler last season seem truer by the day.

Although, I believe MS denied it...

I would dump Haley today for Shanny. We should have gone after him last season.

You would think one of these days some of these coaches would learn never go coach the Raiders or the Redskins because they have meddling owners who are stupid.

I think that's hy schnider hired allen yesterday. It's a proverbial, "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain" type of move to lure in head coaches.

You have to figure that at some point... Snyder is going to "hit" with a coaching hire. The guy has no problem spending $ or trying to win, he just hasn't spent it wisely or made the best moves. The Skins have talent on both sides... they're not totally horrible, so get the right coach and let him do his thing... who knows what could happen.

THE DEAL IS DONE!

Their GM just quit, maybe that's why.

Is Elway making a comeback?

Question MHM, doesn't Denver ownership, Pat Bowlen, still owe him a LOT of money?

Bowlen fired Shanahan with 3 years and $20 million left on his contract. As long as Shanahan goes without a job Bowlen will have to pay his entire yearly salary. As soon as he gets a job Bowlen will only have to pay half of his salary.
