Wow. Three pages on an article that, apparently, is backed by nothing but speculation. I wish I hadn't postd it. It's obvious why it was.
By the way, it's listed on SI's NFL home page now in the "Truth & Rumours" section.

If that idiot fires Shanny within the next 3 years, I will stop pulling for this team until he dies or sells the team. I live in NC, and the Panthers have a great organization to say the least so it's hard to watch the crap that dan snyder has done to our beloved team.
I agree.... I'm done if Shanny if fired....

Coles, Lavar was all Gregg Williams
Right Coles. You can say it was all GW but at the time he was the face of the team so DS let it go on and backed GW.

Really because if you ask me it seems that Shanahan handled Hansworth about the same way Snyder handled a few players. Think about Lavar and the WR (forgot his name right now) from the Jets.
That's true but Lavar and Coles didn't get 40 mil and both of them at least produced for us on the field. What has AH done? Play a handful of games and underachieved in most of them. Ah is more in the wrong for not being a pro but Shanahan also should take blame for changing a defense to the 3-4 and not having the personel to run it....which in turn made fat Albert cry and pout more.

I heard a rumor that the Denver owner admitted making a mistake when he fired Shanahan and now wants him back. Then I heard this morning about the rift between Snyder and Shanahan. Could Shanahan be trying to worm his way out of his contract as HC of the Redskins? This could seriously upset Snyder, and I wouldn't blame him for being upset. Everyone jumps and concludes that it's Snyder's fault, when in fact it may be more of a problem with what Shanahan is doing. Personally I would tie a bow around both Shanahans and ship them back to Denver, along with Jim Haslett!

Until Shannahan shows me something other than another year we're not in the playoffs, I will continue to be dismayed. Although, I will gain a lot of confidence in him if he drafts the right QB. If he screws that, I'm finished with him.

Mike Shanahan working for John Elway? Not gonna happen.

So Snyder SHOULD HAVE meddled in personnel?!

What I have heard is that Snyder was "less than happy" with the contract extension given to McNabb in light of the "messy divorce" that went down just a few weeks later.
That does not translate into a rift between Shanahan and Snyder - - but it does mean that the coach and the owner were not on the same page on at least one significant issue in the 2010 season. And that issue cost the owner a couple of million bucks...
Do not discount the sources of Jason LaCanfora or Jason Reid when it comes to getting inside info on the Redskins. They may not always report stories that fans want to hear - - but it does not mean they are wrong or that they are "making stuff up". Both guys are competent reporters/journalists.
