Stand back everyone, there is about to be some serious spinning. It's going to look like a 1980's break dancing battle.

However, he wasn't a good DC in those other years when his defenses improved into the to 10 in those other years. Ok. Got it. It only counts when the teams are going in the wrong direction. Before anyone starts firing anyone prior to stepping on a practice field it is probably a good idea to understand what was going on that led to the poor statistics. I am a lifelong Raider fan. Beginning from preparation for the Super Bowl, the night before the Super Bowl, during the Super Bowl and pretty much the following year (2003), Bill Callahan showed what a complete moron as a head coach he was. In 2003 the entire Raider locker room and team was in complete disarray. After the head coach publicly states that he has "the dumbest team in the NFL" and the locker room becomes a zoo you can't put anything that happened with that team and situation on Breshnahan. That same year (2003) the Raiders were #27 in the league in passing offense. Their QB coach must have been pretty crappy too. I hope their team is ready to fire him. Some guy named Jim Harbaugh.

A coodinators job in the NFL isn't exactly comparable to managing the local Wendys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously he's here due to networking and not success on the gridiron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
