I knew he had the title of OC, but i think his role is more of a consultant and Sean Payton is the guy pulling the strings

They are all doing a great job though

He's the real genius behind the play calling......pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

Well I knew that was his title, but I don't know what his actual role in the offense play calling/designing is...

Anyway, he's the one you can see going over the polaroids with Brees every Sunday, so maybe his focus is on the QBs... but that would bring up a question about Joe Lombardi's contribution on the staff?

I knew who he was. But I also know Payton calls the plays. The OC does more than just calls plays. The 1st 10-15 plays of each half are basically scripted. I'm sure he has a hand in those. He probably has more responsibility in preparation of the offense during the week for Sundays than anything. Drawing up plays etc. I honestly think he makes Payton look better......

Sort of like being the Captain of a Flagship when the Admiral of the Fleet is aboard?!?

FinSaint · 10-13-2011, 06:42 PM

So is he in fact the back-up in case SP goes on the IR?

He also makes the gatorade...
tests Payton's food before he eats any of it...
is the emergency kicker...

He used to be the guy who followed James Brown across the
stage holding that cape.

while we're at it, lets jam: (note: this one doesnt have the cape guy)

James Brown - Good Foot, Soul Power & Make It Funky - YouTube

Once you said that I remembered it - but couldn't have named him w/o it being a multiple choice question
