Is this a Gruden or a McC hire?
I'm pretty sure RG3 demanded....Snyder......force Bruce......strongarm SM to....force Jay to hire him.

I read something earlier that said, we didn't have and OLB coach last season. Olivadotti is the ILB coach. I wouldn't read anything into this other than we needed a coach and he was a great on available. Barry has nothing to worry about.
I read the same thing. Barry coached the OLBers last year. I think it's a great move.

I'm not a Joe Barry fan at all. If we had hired Wade we would have lost in the NFC Championship, instead of getting exposed by GB's terrible offense.

I agree - i think our Defense would have been a lot better with Wade, but it would have been a short term fix. Wade wears out his welcome after a season or two.

Damn straight. I can't recall if Wade had interest or not, but regardless we should have been pounding on his door.

Wade Phillips: ‘A Big Redskins Fan Now’ (http://www.redskins.com/news-and-events/article-1/Wade-Phillips-%E2%80%98A-Big-Redskins-Fan-Now%E2%80%99/3b7a29c3-c8f4-45de-bb69-27e477941765)
i imagine we had the opportunity. he sat around quite a while in the offseason before being given a job. a lot of us were 100% for it, cause his track record is, well, amazingly good.

Best I can remember, there were a ton of stories circulating before Barry's hire about Wade being in town and being seen here and there. Not sure if he was hanging around Redskins park waiting for an offer, but the twitter feeds made it seemed like he was letting everyone know he didn't have any plans for the fall.
