Can't these new hires go into an off season thread??? He's been hired as an inside LB coach.. lol.

His most recent three stops...

In 2011 he was named defensive coordinator of the Cowboys, when they ranked 16th in points allowed per game, and then the next year dropped to 24th in points allowed per game. He was then fired by Jason Garrett.

He was then hired by the Saints as DC in 2013 when he had a strong defense, finishing 4th in points allowed per game. But in 2014 his defense tanked, finishing bottom five.
He was then fired from New Orleans in 2015 on the day after the Kirk Cousins and Jay Gruden led Redskins hung a 47 burger on his defense, in a 47-14 defeat of the Saints.

The next year he was hired by his brother Rex as D Coordinator of the Bills, then fired along with Rex at the end of the 2016 season. Hasn't coached since.

Good job fellas. You got someone who represents no threat to Manusky, I'll say that.

Can he coach up LB's? That's all I care about.

He better be able too, it'd be hella pathetic if he could somehow manage to screw that up.

No one can coach up Mason Foster. Not even Mike Singletary.

We'll see. Last time he was a LB coach was under Belichick from 2000 - 2003. I mean that's certainly a plus. I guess I'd have to defer to Willie McGinest and Teddy Bruschi to tell me what they thought of him.

But we don't have Belichick as our HC, so...

Meh. Rob Ryan's greatest accomplishment in life is that his Dad and brother didn't make him change his last name.

You've got it wrong, Mason Foster has the work ethic, he just doesn't have the talent/athleticism. And Zach Brown has the talent/athleticism, he just doesn't have the work ethic.

Meet the new D-coordinator for 2020.
