Coaches Q&A on NFL.com


Recommended Posts

http://www.nfl.com/c..._content_stream

Coaches around the league discussing the unorthodox QB's. A lot of coaches high on Cam, RG3, The Golden Calf of Bristol.

Also I love Ron Rivera's outlook on College QB's, he mentions how College is ahead of the NFL, with the spread offense, and that QB's in College are more prepared because they are making all the throws, 30-40 passes a game, that a lot of College QB's are making all the throws, but its about the decision making.

Its a lot of snippets of a lot of coaches discussing different things around the NFL, something of interest during this painful offseason.

Coaches discuss RG# vs Luck, Best Coaching Advice, Challenge Flag etiquette, Talent vs Chemistry, The Golden Calf of Bristol, Unorthodox QB's, Greenbay QB tree, Sure Thing and 2012 Hall of Fame Class.

i've been feeling like this for a while.

many have kept running on and on about how the spread won't work in the NFL, meanwhile the patriots are setting NFL records with it, the cardinals got to the superbowl running it, the Saints* have been using it and dominating on offense, the eagles got a respectable offense again when they abandoned the WCO for a spread that fit vick, and the list grows and grows.

people said the run option wouldn't work in the pros because pro defenses are too fast and too smart. well...it's working and we'll be seeing more teams try and duplicate it. crap...we'll even see andrew luck run more spread in the pros than most thinking he was above it thought possible.

QBs are taking more snaps out of the shotgun than probably ever before and will continue to do it, despite it not being "pro-style".

college is paving the way for the pros, which is a shame but that's what happens when the bulk of the coaches are resistant to change of any kind and like/stick to the old tried and proven methods.

shanny is just one of a few old timer coaches who realizes that you've got to change up and adjust to the new football climate. that kind of dinosaur will live on for a while if they can adapt. the ones that can't go extinct.

I have to agree, also I think it is the Media that proclaims that the spread will not work in the NFL, but as you mention several high powered offenses are running the spread, and being very successful at it also.

The run option is another wrinkle that a lot of media proclaims that want work, but everybody in the league know The Golden Calf of Bristol can't throw, and teams week after week, got beat by the run option The Golden Calf of Bristol was running.

    • You are right. At the same time I don’t think people are watching games going come on Bryce put it on the ground or sail it OB or whatever. They just have trouble seeing him turning his 3 or four or five top games of 2025 into the weekly standard outing. Which you expect for the kind of money he will ask for (speaking for myself anyway).  
    • In terms of comparing Pickett and Young's arm talent it's basically a push at best. Pickett is sitting at 6.2 yards per pass attempt for his career while Bryce sits at 6.0 Last season Bryce was 6.3 in yards per pass attempt. Only Justin Fields Spencer Rattler (both 6.2) Kyler Murray (6.0) 41 year old Joe Flacco (6.0) 44 year old Phillip Rivers (5.9) rookie Cam Ward (5.9) and Tyrod Taylor (5.8) had less pass yards per attempt than Bryce Young in his third season as a starter. Folks going around acting as if it is beyond the pale to say Pickett might have a better arm than Young are living in an alternate reality. You can choose to not believe your own eyes after 46 games but everyone else will acknowledge reality and move forward accordingly.
    • Wayne Gretzky yesterday said he is playing as good a series as he has ever seen from a defender. I thought that was pretty high praise.
