Would rather see Cowher in the AFCE than Shanahan, by a long shot.

According to Adam Schefter, there is no chance Cowher is coming back to coach this year.

good, let the jets find another lame duck coach

Everybody here is talking about the Jets. If Shanahan takes another job, I think it might be the Cowboys. Despite what Jones is saying, I don't think Wade is going to last that much longer there and Shanahan is a Super Bowl winning head coach.

In that case, I hope Denver hires Mangini.

Only if he can get Jerry Jones to back the hell off.

I don't know what the local experts are saying KontradictioN....

But who the heck does Jack Del Rio still have a job?
At least the Jets put up a fight!

Great point; I hadn't thought of that. Shanahan was also GM right? That would be the perfect place for Cowher.

Couldn't win without Elway and salary cap cheating.....

Please, PLEASE keep him away from the Meadowlands. Shanahan, for all of his recent failings (and there have been more than a lot of people realize), coaches EXTREMELY well against BB's Pats. I do not want to see him twice a year.

Ill obviously take BB in a heartbeat, but there is no denying Shanahan's success this decade against the Pats...

I suspect Shanahan falls in the Holmgren/Parcells/Belichick school of thought and as such does not want pushy owners meddling in his team operation.

After Parcells bolted that job and Jones hired Wade, a yes man, my money would be on Shanahan not approaching that job with a 10-foot pole.
