I doubt Allen or Shanahan would have come here unless they were 110% sure that they would be calling the shots. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if there is language in their contracts ensuring they have control and Snyder needs to keep his nose out of things.

I'm sure Marty thought the same thing when he signed. I'm sure Jim Zorn thought he would be calling plays when he signed. Last week Bruce Allen had "final say." This week, its Mike Shanahan. As far as Schefter, he's far from neutral and I wouldnt expect him to say anything else. I'm not beleiving Snyder's committed to staying out of things until I see it for an extended period of time.
