D.C. Options if McDermott Leaves?


Catalyst

Recommended Posts

Not calling you out in particular but it has been said by numerous posters. Keek is not on some Peyton manning level with calling the shots for their respective squads. McDermott and pretty much any coordinator we bring in is going to be light years above keek in defensive game planning and play calling. Keek is a beast and incredibly smart. But we can't rely on a 3rd year player to call the shots. It's unfair to him and unfair to the team.

Understand your opinion. However talent will make any coordinator look great. Look at billacheat with the browns.

Keep is already changing the calls on the field now based on what he see's

As your correct, he won't replace a coordinator, but he wil damn sure they are made to look good. Look at our defense in mcdermonts 1st year. We couldn't stop anyone. Then When john went down last season we transformed.

It's a maturation process, but keek is well on his way.

Jim Schwatz is looking for work.

It would surprise me if Wash. took McD. They should go for an Offensive Coach IMO. Someone that may be able to get RGknee to become the QB they thought he would be.

Personally. I would hate to lose any of our Defensive position coaches to become DC. We are still young, we still need that guidance. Becoming DC would take too much time away from their positional duties.

    • Oh yeah the QB is huge in this stuff. Imagine what Smitty could have done with a surgeon back there. And some more offensive minded head coaches. It was always run heavy. He was one of the best I ever saw and people didn’t know who he was outside of Carolina, for the longest time.   
    • For sure, any college scout that touted Bryce Young as worth the first overall pick, needs to be gone. I don’t think the college scouts are so much the issue, I think it is the minds of the decision makers that have the most influence.  If this draft produces, and Morgan was really in charge, maybe Tepper will develop some respect and stay back and let people work.     
    • I just am not aware of regimens that offer increased velocity which is the biggest weakness I can see in Young (that needs addressing right now). Is it possible to do? Who has done it that we can see as an example? I guess I am saying before I believe weights will give him added zip on the ball, I would want proof that it works.    I think weight room would help him not be pulled down by two fingers, even if they are big strong DL fingers. They are still fingers controlling 185 lbs. So that needs to be addressed but it is a secondary issue behind his footwork and ball velocity. It might help too, in allowing him to retain some velocity while not putting 100% effort into throws. Which should help his ‘deep’ ball.  I agree they can’t fix his footwork on those pistol or gun snaps where he slowly goes backwards and does the tippy toe thing.  Maybe putting him under center and taking the option of that type of drop away from him, forcing him into the classic under center style. Drop and plant and throw. Maybe that would help get around it.
