OR...extend Callahan's contract. That's a no-brainer, IMO.

I still wonder why Dallas didn't. I agree it's a no brainer - if Callahan wants to stay - but I wonder if Callahan was hoping to be next in line here for HC and will look for a HC job when his contract is up.

It was because when Callahan was the o-line coach and running game coordinator in Dallas, he was next in line for the Offensive Coordinator job when it opened up. But when they hired Linehan from outside of the organization to be OC, Callahan was unhappy and was allowed to 'seek other opportunities'.

I know people are tired of hearing how 'great' the o-line is in Dallas. But they would not be where they are today without Callahan.
