Coaching/QB Observations

As I watched games Sunday, I kept being drawn to watching the HC's. Here is what I saw:

(won't even pretend to know names)

Raiders - Young coach : Attentive to all aspects of the game, carrying a clip board - making notes. Speaking constantly on his headset. Always engaging players - waiving them back from the sideline, motioning for them to hurry up. I saw a QB on the sideline one on one with a receiver going over a route and maybe what the QB was looking for in that route - not just when something good happens (high 5, laughing, etc..) this was right after an INT.

Falcons - same

NYG - veteran coach: ditto on the sideline demeanor. Ditto on the QB / WR interaction

Packers: Saw the HC down on 1 knee in a huddle with his entire offensive line! - going over some photo's and coming up with a solution?

Ravens/49ers - although a bit explosive, both coaches very involved with all aspects of the game.

Seeing a pattern? All I see when I vision the Panthers is a HC fixing someones helmet during a defensive timeout that "we" called. Shouldn't our Defensive minded HC be involved with the discussion of the defense in a critical situation?

I just don't get it.

Not trying to defend Rivera but are you basing this all on short tv shots of Rivera or are you actually at the game?

Why would it matter? The cameras pan on HCs when something big happens like a TD or interception. With other coaches they get emotional and show they are involved be it screaming or smiling. Rivera stands there.

I'm basing it off of tv coverage of the sidelines during crucial or tense periods of the game. Rivera fixing a helmet during a timeout was a steady camera feed for the duration of the time out. The camera crew was zoomed in on him doing it while the commentators talked blah. it was in the last 2 minutes of the SeaHawks game.

I admit I'm not seeing the whole game - but during crucial periods, he looks totally disconnected from the team.

    • Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts? 
    • nope     This is why we come back every year.  Hope springs eternal
    • It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
