Don't ya love rumors?

You might have heard today that former Broncos coach Mike Shanahan has been mentioned as a possible candidate as the Chiefs' next coach. For now, we'll do like everyone else and ignore that, for the forthcoming seconds and perhaps minutes, Herm Edwards has not been fired.

 

So far we've heard Parcells and Cowher, two former coaches who've made it pretty clear they're done with walking the sideline -- at least for this season. But hey, we're football fans. All we've got is hope, right?

So now that Haley is passe, we can focus on Shanahan. Or whomever it'll be tomorrow.

Via MyFox Detroit:

The Detroit Lions hired former Kansas City Chiefs coach Gunther Cunningham to be their new defensive coordinator. The move was announced Wednesday morning. Terms of his contract were not disclosed. Cunningham is a 40-year coaching veteran on the college and pro level and represents the first major hire by newly installed Lions coach Jim Schwartz. Cunningham was Kansas City's head coach from 1999-2000 and the Chiefs' defensive coordinator in 1995-98 and 2004-08. He also served alongside Schwartz on the Tennessee Titans staff. He'll set about trying to fix one of the league's worst defenses, one of the big reasons Detroit didn't win a game last season.
