There is a rumor circulating that Snyder flew to Cabo and met with Mike Shanahan --- has not yet been confirmed by the mainstream media, but some bloggers (including me) are talking about it...

Yeah I heard that Shanahan met with Danny Boy. I think it stinks.

A better ending would have been Snyder named himself HC

I have your rookie card. '86 Topps .
Thought your old backfield team mate Mayhew was interviewing your for the HC job in Detroit? Smile

Seriously. Why Todd Bowles for a user name?

Wow, let's hear a rumor, assume it's true, bash Snyder for his failure to let his team gel, and if it doesn't happen we can bash him for failing to make obviously needed changes. When we never hear of it again, we can say how no one would ever work for him, which is why we haven't had a head coach for the last ten years and count Zorn and Shanahan on the list of coaches who were fired by Snyder even if Zorn is still coaching since clearly we can conclude now that Snyder didn't want Zorn to be the coach.

I think I covered it all...

Maybe Danny might hire him is a GM.

Shanahan was one of the Holmgren-type coaches with final say in all football matters. He got Sundquist (the paper GM)fired last spring, and took on the title...which is to say, he was a fantastic coach, but a horrible GM. Who else would look at the D-Line of another team and then buy the whole line? After Elway retired, they went through the dance with Griese's kid, then bought Jake "The Snake" from Arizona, stuck with him for a while, went to Cutler, eventually. We dealt with Shanahan with the whole Bailey/Portis deal, not Bowlen or the GM.
To bring him here as a GM would be disastrous.

We can't hire Shanahan..... we'd have to change our name to the Orangeskins

Shanahan is the last person we need either as a coach or GM. The NFL had passed Joe Gibbs by and he had an excuse of being away for many, many years. The NFL has passed Shanahan by and he was/is still coaching.
