There have been a lot of reports, and statements from the NFL how their 32 owners are unified and on the same page in regards to the labor situation and an uncapped 2010 NFL season.

Many teams have set budgets from themselves, but apparently Washington Redskins owner, Daniel Snyder, didn't get that memo, and as usual he is on his own page.

Washington Redskins six-time Pro Bowl left tackle Chris Samuels will announce his retirement Thursday.

The Florida Tuskers are without a doubt they most popular team in the upstart United Football League. They completed their first season undefeated, before losing in the Championship game to the Las Vegas Locos.

They were so good that their first head coach, Jim Haslett was hired by the Washington Redskins to be their Defensive Coordinator.

The Florida Tuskers have now named their offensive coordinator, Jay Gruden as the team next head coach.

The Washington Redskins probably need a QB, since they have a new regime in place. This usually means that a new franchise QB is the first pick, the new regime makes, however in the 2010 NFL draft there may not be a QB worth the fourth overall pick.

That means the Redskins may be forced to address other needs with this draft pick.

Mike Shanahan has a lot of work to do to fix the ills of the Washington Redskins. However the job may not be as big as many people think.

They already have a pretty good defense in place, if Shanahan can find a good defensive coordinator not much attention will have to be paid to that side of the ball.

Short term the defense is not he biggest concern, the Redskin offense on the other hand is going to need all of Shanahan's offensive genius.

The Denver Post reports that the Washington Redskins have reached a deal with Mike Shanahan to make him the team's next head coach and, according to ESPN.com, Executive Vice President of Football Operations.

The last time Dan Snyder went looking for a head coach, he used up a whole month, exhausted his entire list of candidates and settled for a novice who yielded little power, didn't always get his due respect and went 12-20.

This time, the Washington Redskins owner needed only one day to land his No.

Mike Shanahan agreed Tuesday to become the coach of the Washington Redskins, the latest step in a major overhaul of a troubled franchise.

Shanahan's decision to join the team was confirmed to The Associated Press by an official within the NFL. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the team was not commenting on its coaching search.

Jim Zorn was fired by the Washington Redskins early Monday, the first step in yet another team overhaul under owner Dan Snyder.

Zorn was informed of his dismissal shortly after the team returned to Redskins Park following Sunday's season-ending 23-20 loss at San Diego.

Zorn went 12-20 over two seasons, but he lost 18 of his last 24 games after a 6-2 start in 2008.
