Thoughts?

He was there 14 years. Maybe management just thought it was time for a change and this was the ideal time to do it. Can't say I 'm suprised. The Broncos have won a total of one playoff game since they won the Super Bowl 10 years ago. I guess some people feel that since you win a Super Bowl (in his case two) that you are somewhat bulletproof. But the guy had a long sucessful stint in Denver and I am sure he will end up somewhere in the near future.

Agreed.
Sometimes things just get stale.
Shanahan is a good coach.

And in all fairness Denver was lucky to even be in the running
for that division. They had to be one of the most injured teams
in the NFL. This seems to be fairly common for Denver. Maybe
Shanahan needs to find a Pilates instructor.

Jerry Jones said there would be no coaching changes.
So the Defensive coordinator has been fired in Dallas.
And Jason Garrett looks like he may have laid down
a me or TO goes ultimatum to Jerry. Meanwhile Wade
Phillips gets tossed about like he is not even present.
Great fun... total chaos.
