Mike Shanahan Potential Coach for Redskins
Denver Broncos head coach Mike Shanahan flew into Washington D.C. for a business meeting Monday to discuss an opportunity coaching the Redskins. The Washington Post has confirmed that Shanahan made his connection arriving in D.C. Monday and was taken to a meeting regarding his likely move to the head coach position for the Redskins. The Redskins were quick to bring in Shanahan after firing previous coach Jim Zorn earlier that same day. With the possibility of Shanahan stepping into a lead role with the Redskins the Houston Texans are wondering if they will need to make preparations to replace his son Kyle Shanahan who is serving as their offensive coordinator. The p...

NFL Black Monday fairly quiet; Wade Phillips could change things
As much as Washington is now free to openly continue its hot pursuit of ex-Broncos head coach Mike Shanahan, it's not hard to imagine Shanahan stringing out the hiring dance with the Redskins this week until he discovers what unfolds with their arch rivals, the Cowboys. At the very least, Shanahan might just spark a bidding war that pits the deep pockets of Daniel Snyder against the equally deep pockets of his BFF, Jerry Jones. There are no losers in that scenario if your last name is Shanahan. And what of Bill Cowher? Reports started swirling Monday that the ex-Steelers head coach may not love any of the limited opportunities on this year's carousel, promptin...

No further interviews needed for 'Skins to hire Shanahan

The Redskins may hire Mike Shanahan to be the team's next coach without conducting any any further interviews.NFL spokesman Greg Aiello told us via e-mail this morning that "teams can interview during the season members of their own staff or coaches not working for NFL teams as prospective head coaches" and that "[s]uch interviews would count toward Rooney Rule compliance."So if, at is has been widely reported, the Redskins interviewed secondary coach Jerry Gray for the job that until today Jim Zorn held, Gray will not need to be interviewed again, which is directly contrary to Sunday's report from ESPN's Chris Mortensen and sort-of contrary to the initial word we obt...
Broncos blew it in end

McDaniels ended up with the same 8-8 record that got Mike Shanahan fired. The real problem going forward is that McDaniels seems to have a very serious issue with making a point at the worst possible time. Receiver Brandon Marshall has long been known as a pain in the butt (word is, Shanahan was considering cutting him before the coaching change), but in benching Marshall and tight end Tony Scheffler before the season finale against the Chiefs, McDaniels put two of his best offensive weapons out of the game at the same time his formerly vaunted defense was falling apart. The 44-24 Kansas City win was a fait accompli, and now, the Broncos have a great many questions to answer in a frustrating...
