Skins hire Bill Callahan to 3-yr deal as OL coach

Likely spite.

Exactly what it is! Can't wait to win the Super Bowl next year.

Had your chance Cally!

Oh well, they must have thrown mega bucks at himt to sign him so fast.

Yeah, Lil' Danny wouldn't have talked to him prior to the deadline for exclusive talks with original team. That would have been tampering and no way would he have done that.

Take solice: he has not lasted long wherever he has coached. I don't know why. Maybe a short attention span...,maybe he wears thin, maybe his bosses grow to dislike him.

Either way, when Gruden gets fired, so will he.

I have heard that he is pretty abrasive with those who coach along with him and that his personality wears thin pretty quickly. I have no idea of that's true but it does seem to happen where he goes.

That's really moving up the food chain, Bill.

Before anyone gets the oh noes or ugghs...

Who has left the cowboys (player or coach) and went to Washington and really panned out?

Bill is leaving. I would imagine he would rather go somewhere to be an OC but if not he will go be an OL coach again and get the best contract he can get which could be in Washington.

I think Pollack did a good job in 2013 when he was supposedly having more control over the O-Line than Callahan. That year we had Smith-Leary-Fred-Bernardeau-Free.

We needed great improvement from Free and got it. Leary was mainly a pass protector and struggled in the run, but was essentially a rookie.

And I thought we got a very good year from our O-Line that season. To the point where the Packers said that when they watched film that we had the best zone blocking run game in the NFL.

So I don't think we are too bad off without Callahan and the Skins have a way of screwing this up.

That's what I was thinking but wasn't sure. Since Callahan had more OC duties in 2013 (not sure about 2012), pollack probably had a decent amount of the responsibility that he will have next season and had a good part in developing guys like fred, leary and tyron.

I can't decide which is better -- Parnell as their starter or as our backup. If we got someone like JPP and lined him up over Parnell it would be a laugh riot.

The Giants tried lining up JPP on Parnell this year. JPP had Zero sacks against him.

Doug Free:

Parnell (Parnell is #78. He is blocking Kevin Williams (6-5, 311, 5x All Pro, 6x Pro Bowl).
