Meh, might happen. Might even be announced today.

He was already in town this weekend to discuss the job with Danny Boy.

I realized that washingtonpost.com can be finnicky sometimes since it sometimes requires a username/password to access anything past the front page, so here's a different article

Apparently Danny Boy has the upper hand over any other teams in the running (there is at least one) since he got to personally spoon Shanahan last night in his own bed.

"Snyder planned for Shanahan to stay overnight at the owner's house in Maryland, and a formal hiring announcement could come as early as Tuesday."

How much control will he give Shan?

I think McDaniels fading at the end of the year gave Shanahan more life and might allow him some control. At the beginning of the season McDaniels was making Shanahan looked washed up but then we saw that it wasn't necessarily McDaniels but more just a lucky start.

Heard some people talking about the "Rooney Rule" not being met yet as they interviewed the skins coordinator before they fired Zorn. Any weight to that?

The "Rooney Rule" needs to go. Teams know who they want to hire, forcing them to schedule extra interviews is a waste of time.

Iron-jawed Shanahan ranks right up there with whiny Tom Coughlin as a guy who looks like he hates to coach.
