One of the things that Jerry Jones said that always made sense was when he talked about getting coaches who hadn't won a Super Bowl as those are usually the ones that are more motivated. Then again I'm sure Shannahan would have plenty of motivation after a year off and 10+ years since he won the Super Bowl. Though I wonder how Portis would feel about playing for Shannahan again. Also would be curious to see if Shannahan could pry Alex Gibbs away from Houston should Buge's retire.

Either way it seems like a logical fit especially if we draft Sanchez. Plus I'm sure that Shannahan would be more then happy to not only take Snyder's money but take his place in the structure the FO had under Gibbs, with Vinny playing head scout, Shannahan playing Coach and GM, and Snyder playing final decision maker.

In short though, I definitely but only if Zorn messes up.
