Hello and welcome to my podcast. Do me a favor, subscribe to the John Conner Report wherever you get your podcast. If you're watching on YouTube, hit that like button, hit that subscribe button. You can find us there as part of Empire Media, AMPRI. Always much appreciated when you tune in. Don't forget, you can read my work on ESPN.com. Have a story up now about the hiring of David Blow as, or promotion of David Blow to offensive coordinator. Also have a big story up now about just kind of when went on the season, some behind the scene stuff, just a lot of thoughts on the season, et cetera, et cetera, some stuff about the coordinator's position, et cetera. Look for that on ESPN.com.

Anyway, what we're going to talk about for about 10, 15 minutes is David Blow,

because he is now the offensive coordinator for the Washington commanders.

That, of course, is the roll of the dice.

Now, the commanders could look at it and say, like, to them,

just as big a gamble was maybe letting him leave the building, and that's a big part of why

Blau is now the coordinator, because Detroit definitely showed interest in him. I do believe he had

an interview with him. I have not confirmed that, but that is, I've heard that. And so, but regardless,

they had interest in him. And once that became the case, the commanders then decided like they need to

fast track the Blau train here in Washington and wanted to keep him. As one person here told me,

they didn't want to see that list on TV with all the former coaches in Washington who got

away without doing enough here and have that include David Blow.

Now, eventually, if he does well, he'll be on that list too, but for a better reason, right?

For a guy who worked his way up at a successful place and then went over there.

That's what would be a different turn of events with those coaches who are head coaches who

used to be in Washington.

So anyways, so this is a, there is a gamble here because David Blow has never

caught place.

He's 30 years old.

He's young.
