Mike Shanahan Fired By Denver

Another bits the dust. I thought he would never get fired. Lots of good candidates out there.

I feel like he will go to the Jets

Bad move

Shanny was getting great production from the offense. It was the D that destroyed their season. Was Shanny in charge of what players were drafted and signed. If not it was a very bad decision.

Yes, Shanahan had complete control, including personnel decisions.

He had to go. The game has clearly passed him by. That is why he blew a third rounder on Maurice Clarett, and that is why his team has continued to underperform.

He's been there forever. I guess they want to go a different direction. That collapse they had at the end of the year was terrible.

Ya. That's UNREAL.

One of the best head coaches currently in the NFL. Unfortunately it's all about "what have you done lately". And since Elway he has yet to win a Ring. He'll find a head coaching job sooner rather then later.
