Inside The Bills

Shanahan: “We had an excellent meeting.”

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter Bills COO/GM has met with former Denver head coach Mike Shanahan in Denver.

Per the report, Brandon was very persuasive with his pitch to Shanahan.

“We had an excellent meeting,” Shanahan told Schefter Wednesday. “I was really impressed with Russ Brandon and everything he had to say. We’re going to stay in touch and see what develops.”

This is certainly a positive first step. Unlike Cowher and Holmgren, who have reportedly declined to meet with Bills officials until the end of the season, Shanahan at least sounds as if he’s considering what the Bills have put before him.
