Skins PR Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I don't really think it's cool to shuffle Byner off like this. He was a big part of that Superbowl team and has been a loyal Redskin in his coaching career. I hope he finds a position with another team.

Laxpunk2006 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I don't really think it's cool to shuffle Byner off like this. He was a big part of that Superbowl team and has been a loyal Redskin in his coaching career. I hope he finds a position with another team. I hope Byner does well in the future as well. However I have no problem with letting him go. Keeping him on the coaching staff simply because he was a good player for us a decade ago would foolish. If we're going to have a new coach and a new offense we can't half ass it. Let Zorn bring in his guys to teach his system. If Stump Mitchell is an upgrade then have at it. Portis and Betts have been mediocre in ypc and touchdowns in their time in Washington. With the talent we have loaded at RB we need to see better production. Hopefully Stump Mitchell is the man for the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#21Taylor4Ever Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 ...Zorn identified Mitchell and Tennessee Titans assistant Sherman Smith as coaches he wanted to add to his new staff. There is nothing official on Smith yet -- he was expected to have dinner with Zorn tonight -- but Mitchell is leaving the Seahawks to join the Redskins. I mentioned the Smith move a few days ago....200-some views and no responses. :mad: http://www.extremeskins.com/forums/showthread.php?t=237944 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinpride1 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 CP knows the west coast system. He was drafted by denver , and they ran the west coast O. Mike Shanahan was there Head Coach. He learned( Mike shanahan) The West Coast offense From Bill Walsh,when Mike was an Assistant Coach for the 49ers.Bill Walsh is the "God Father" of the West Coast Offense. Don't forget that Portis produced some monster numbers under this system too!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhodatSkinsFan? Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Zorn, Stump, Sherman... I am liking the staff.. just not the names! :laugh: I was thinking the same thing! Interesting move... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truant Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Does he teach golf? How no one quoted this is beyond me. This move is worth it just for this resulting post. Out with the old... I wish Byner well but Zorn deserves to pick SOMETHING. Alexander, Mack, Weaver, Morris all experienced some level of success in Seattle. The problem was the line was (is) more geared towards pass protection. When the hawks would run up the middle on 3rd and short, it wasn't pretty. Holmgren made the right move and ditched the run game and catered the playcalling to the abilities of his team. I don't think it was a slight on the RB coach, more on the toughness of the line.

JBarrett82 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Don't know if anyone has seen this yet, sorry if its a re-post. Looks like Byner's out of work for now. http://myespn.go.com/blogs/hashmarks/0-5-403/Redskins-land-Mitchell-from-Seattle.htm Not sure why the link won't work, but here's the article: "Redskins land Mitchell from Seattle February 12, 2008 7:38 PM Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando Stump Mitchell and the Washington Redskins reached agreement this afternoon on a two-year contract. Mitchell joins Jim Zorn's staff as assistant head coach/running backs. The Seahawks had been reluctant to let Mitchell, their running backs coach since 1999, leave on a lateral move. The "assistant head coach" portion of the title makes this a promotion. Zorn identified Mitchell and Tennessee Titans assistant Sherman Smith as coaches he wanted to add to his new staff. There is nothing official on Smith yet -- he was expected to have dinner with Zorn tonight -- but Mitchell is leaving the Seahawks to join the Redskins."
