What is funny is that I don't remember anyone during the season saying "the Redskins need to upgrade their secondary coach." Raheem Morris is a relatively big name for a position coach. But I also don't remember people saying, "the Redskins don't have enough 'name' coaches on the staff."

At no point next year will I be able to judge Raheem Morris on the quality of his work here. Neither will anyone else. I hope he does really well. But we'll probably never know what kind of effect he is having on the players' lives, without having that personal connection with the players.

If you find that analysis to be negative, you can just block me now.

Tripp, you're too young to remember the coaching staff for the Redskins back in the 80's. They had several head coaches during their Super Bowl years - mostly all of them position coaches. So, it is not uncommon for a head coach to accept a job as a position coach, especially if the money isn't bad.
