Redskins Looking Into Firing Mike Shanahan Without Paying Him

    ESPN.com had a curiously timed story on Sunday morning that Shanahan was ready to quit last season because of how owner Daniel Snyder gave preferential treatment to quarterback Robert Griffin III, but stuck around for another season after Griffin got hurt. Whether that story is accurate doesn't really matter. The important takeaway is someone leaked it to ESPN.

    The Redskins believe that someone is Shanahan, and they aren't too pleased about it.

    The Washington Post reported that the Redskins are looking into whether they can fire Shanahan with cause and therefore not pay him the $7 million he has remaining on his contract for next season. The Post said the Redskins were "sorting through their options" on Monday morning.

    Shanahan needs to go. But I am worried RG3 and RG2 are getting too much attention in all of this, and if we get Art Briles just shoot me now. That is the absolute worst move we could ever make. Please let us not allow a player to run the franchise. It is bad enough we have an owner who gets involved in every single decision.

    well, the son definitely takes him down a notch but i'm not sure mike himself will be that much of a hot commodity either. not sure if he's lost his edge or something but 1 playoff appearance in his last 7 seasons as a HC isn't very good.

    Is there a coaches association, like the NFLPA, to help in these cases? I'm sure that if a team tried to cut a player without pay, we'd be hearing a lot from that DeMaurice guy...
