No Huddle Experience is a Must for OC

Recommended Posts

Which teams have successfully run the No Huddle over the past twenty years? The Colts and Bills immediately come to mind. 

Jim Caldwell was the QB coach for many years under Tom Moore in Indianapolis. Tom Moore is probably available - he was most recently an assistant and offensive consult for Bruce Arians - but he's 79. Let's rule out Moore. 

Frank Reich obviously knows something about running the Bills No Huddle, but he's OC for the Eagles. I doubt they'll let him make a lateral move and I don't even think he'd entertain it... I'm sure he wants a head coaching job. 

But Caldwell... hmm. That's a possibility.

I highly doubt our new GM is a member of the The Huddle.

I think there are lots of guys here at the Huddle who would do great as our next OC...

If you don’t think so just ask them

Comedians... They're everywhere.

agreed about experience running a no huddle. don't see that as a part of the three i see most mentioned in here as desired replacements.

norv turner runs a pretty conservative offense and people have decades of tape on what he does.

mccoy benefited from being josh mcdaniels lackey, lucking out with The Golden Calf of Bristol in a really bad division, and then peyton manning as a QB. always overrated. extent of his workouts with QBs here was throw the ball into a bucket.

chud...more creative than shula, but lacking in situational awareness just like chud. you want a team that can make adjustments? look somewhere else.

There isn’t really anything magical about coaching the no huddle. This is like saying we need an OC with experience with the I-formation. It’s ubiquitous.

got to be able to trust the offense in the no huddle. something that shula couldn't do.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
