Rumor from Shanahan's son

Nick had nothing to do with Jack's report.

But, again, I will quote the report we referenced weeks ago on our website.

Shanahan was at least partially fired in Denver because he wanted to hold on to Bob Slowik as defensive coordinator, but his real undoing may have been his dual role as Broncos Head Coach and Executive Vice President of Football Operations. Shanahan had absolute power, and it absolutely destroyed Denver’s defense.

That may not be a problem in Kansas City. Per an NFL source, Shanahan has made it known through “third-party channels” that he’s interested in the Chiefs’ job but would not require total control of football operations as he did in Denver. Can you imagine the perfect pairing of Shanahan and a general manager who could pluck the right defensive talent from the draft, while assisting in the search for the right defensive coordinator?

There is substance to this. The article is over two weeks old. Since then, Shanahan's name has continued to pop up in reports on our premium forum. No other coach has received nearly as much play. Certainly not Todd Haley.
