(AP) -- The Washington Redskins have moved quickly
in their pursuit of Mike Shanahan.

 The former Denver Broncos coach flew to Washington on owner Dan
Snyder's plane hours after the team fired Jim Zorn.
 

Shanahan landed at Dulles International Airport near Redskins
Park in mid-afternoon and was driven away in a limousine.

 Shanahan is the team's top choice to replace Zorn, who was
dismissed in the pre-dawn hours a day after Washington completed a
4-12 season with a 23-20 loss at San Diego.

 Shanahan won two Super Bowls in 14 seasons with the Broncos. He
was fired a year ago after Denver missed the playoffs for the third
straight season.
