The Facts:
It nearly happened during the offseason. It nearly happened this season. But according to multiple league sources, it will happen in the next 24 hours: Jim Zorn will be fired as coach of the Redskins.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The expected change would pave the way for Washington and its new executive vice president and general manager, Bruce Allen, to step up its pursuit of former Denver Broncos coach Mike Shanahan -- or any other candidate the team is considering. Shanahan -- or whoever follows Zorn -- will be the seventh coach hired by the Redskins since Daniel Snyder bought the team in 1999.
