Hmm...I think this one is a wrap for the Skins. They just didn't start talking last week. I think the only way Shanny ends up in Dallas if:

a) The bottom continues to fall out through December in a major way.

b) Jerry Jones offers Shanny more than Snyder is willing to pay, which we both know will be hard. Also, somoneone here pointed out that Jerry has too much money tied up in that stadium to go too far out on limb.

c) Jerry gives him the type of personnel control he's looking for.

C) is very unlikely to happen and is one of the reasons his focus has shifted to the Skins. SS mentioned that Jones isn't too keen on Kyle and one of Mike's big sticking points is having control over his staff.

Not if the deal is already done. Kind of like we said.
