David Blough was a strong contender for the Washington Commanders' offensive coordinator position after the team parted ways with Kliff Kingsbury. Head coach Dan Quinn took the plunge, which immediately brought raised eyebrows from fans and the media alike.
Blough hasn't called plays before. He hasn't even been a permanent position coach. However, the former quarterback is well respected, is rising quickly, and the Commanders clearly didn't want to let him leave the building.
Even though some fans were calling for a fresh start with an outside hire, Washington's offense is going to look a lot different with Blough leading the charge.
