I am too. But none of this absolves Shanny's of his primary role in this. This team is what it is because of him and him only. I don't fault DS for hiring a GD 2X SB winner, paying him what he deserved, and expecting him not to sh*t the bed like he has. That's on Shanny. Not DS. Will DS make a good hire next? Who the f*ck knows but everyone thought this was such a great hire.

Maybe everyone needs to figure something out...it is hard to hire a good coach. There;s a reason that 2/3 of the coaches in league are gone in a 3 year period.

So Dan eating dinner with our star player and wanting to talk to Kyle is meddling?

Oh man the media is doing a great job again.

I'm not sure how many people know about wanting to meet with Kyle

I don't see why anyone should care. I meet with my bosses and their bosses all the time. It's called an organization and it is how it works. I seriously doubt he was trying to help KS figure out some better ways to use Rob or something like that.

The owner should not never have dinner with a rookie QB. It's wrong on so many levels. An established vet that's proven? Then I could understand. Cooke would have never done such a thing.

I totally agree, but when have we ever had a Coach that leaked info constantly too ESPN? Did he think that was never gonna be an issue?

Has Shanny done that in the past? It's hard to navigate around the nonsense to get to the truth, but how much of a problem was Shanny's personality in Denver? Has be always been known to be backhanded? Or is this new behavior in DC? I'm hesitant to put too much blame on Shanahan. Not saying he's a good coach, but there's a difference between failure and malevolence.

Not sure about Denver, but his relationship with Schefter and Graziano is close. He may have also just been a much better coach 15 years ago.

It puts a rookie above everyone on the team.

Why not? You're aware of how this works everywhere else? Intimate knowledge?

You don't know a damn thing about Cooke. Stop acting like you do. You THINK things. Some of them good, some of the dumb like everyone else.

So you're saying Russell Wilson goes and hangs out with Paul Allen? lol. I doubt that's happening.

From everything I've heard Cooke didn't associate with the players at all.

What does it matter is the point? Why would it matter if they ate dinner together? Who would DS be allowed to hang out with in this magical unicorn land of strict compartmentalization? Why is it a bad thing? Could it in any way be a good thing?

What is the big deal? They were both out in Dallas and had dinner.

Again, to me it's just wrong for an owner to hang out with a rookie QB. Now if it's Tom Brady or Peyton Manning? ...an established vet? I can understand. It's plain old common sense.
