Superman wears Jim Washburn pajamas to bed.

[ice grillin you]

yeah i dont follow other teams defensive line coaches and i barely follow their coordinators...shtein i barely follow the eagles position coaches...for example i have no idea who their current defensive backs coach is...which is why i find this all so interesting...the offseason generally brings out the worst in people

Their DB coach is Fleshpop Jauron.

right...i know that when you say it...but i would have had to think really hard if someone asked me who it was

[shorebird]

Yeah, the team definatly needed a coaching change, but this D has what, 6 rooks in the rotation, plus a undrafted player in Hanson? A new coach might change get more out of this D, but more is needed.

[Feva]

I agree with that. I think it's a good time for this guy to get in here while there are so many young DL on the roster. I figure his impact will be more there than on someone like Juqua, who has established techniques... or just sucks.

who are all these studs washburn has developed?

During his tenure with the Titans, Washburn oversaw the development of many talented players including Kyle Vanden Bosch, Tony Brown, Jason Babin, Kevin Carter, Albert Haynesworth, Jevon Kearse, Antwan Odom, Robaire Smith, John Thornton and Gary Walker. Seven of those players (Vanden Bosch, Babin, Carter, Haynesworth, Kearse and Walker) earned a combined eleven Pro Bowl selections under Washburn's tutelage. Among defensive linemen, both of those totals led the league during that span.

What's more impressive is that most of the players listed here were better when he was their coach then when they went elsewhere. I have to think he had something to do with that.

He's like the Andy Reid of defensive linemen. 

[Munson]

Well, he's probably an upgrade over Rory Segrest, so let's consider this a positive.

lets be honest unless they hired someone named blaine it would have to be considered an upgrade...no football coach should ever be named rory segrest

rory segrest should be the striker for duke lacrosse

What if it was Blaine Bishop?

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Mora has decided not to coach this year.

[Tomahawk]

Sounds like that decision was made for him.

Hopefully Washburn does get Haynesworth to come to Philly, then Haynesworth scrapes his cleats down the sides of more Cowboys faces.

Good

@LesBowen I can confirm the Eagles are considering at least one d-coordinator candidate still involved in the playoffs.
