Part one of my breakdown of new #Redskins offensive coordinator Scott Turner. I broke down:
— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) January 8, 2020
- His different run schemes
- How he transitions from run to pass
- Creativity with personnel, shifts and motions
Full breakdown for @TheAthleticDC: https://t.co/O0VNlfu0uf pic.twitter.com/ycMLp6nwMu
They ran 96 such plays; averaged 8.91 yards per pass att (20th; that's on the QB; saw some shots available missed). Only the Chiefs and Rams threw more PA passes on first down. The Skins ran 49 such plays.
— John Keim (@john_keim) January 8, 2020
First down play-action passes are statistically the most productive play-call on first down over the past four seasons. And the #Redskins rarely used it. More, please. https://t.co/DFohsINLzb

An Opinion piece. But interesting on Zampese. https://t.co/JR7x7hEMHq
— Sean Kennedy (@EatSleepRedskin) January 8, 2020
Now in fairness to Haskins, the team knew it would take time and he wasn’t supposed to have played this season. And it’s also tough when you’re young and not getting any love from your coaches. But even people who like him there say he had a sense of entitlement. We’ll see.

FWIW: Callahan was a Bruce Allen addition. They were close friends stemming back to Oakland.

Gruden and Callahan absolutely hated working with eachother. #Redskins https://t.co/URP4A0P1nw
Zampese is an excellent QB coach. He’ll be great for Haskins. Redskins fans, stop lamenting the O’Connell. I like that Rivera didn’t just keep him for the sake of continuity. He’s going for what he believes is better. https://t.co/GOSPwFO4qU

Lot of Alex Smith connections on the new Skins offensive coaching staff. WR coach Jim Hostler and TE Pete Hoener both on the 49ers staff when Smith was there, not to mention Scott Turner's dad Norv. #HTTR

I have no idea how Matt Rhule's Panthers tenure will go but this might be the best introductory press conference I have ever heard. No wonder why he gets every job he interviews for.
