After review, It keeps coming back to coaching
Sooner or later all things on the playing field will come down to coaching . From simple footwork to a players position mechanics . Anyone who has ever been on the football field has probably heard a coach yelling at a wide receiver \" You catch with your hands , not your body \" . On the defensive side \" You get your face mask between the numbers and drive through him and lock your arms around him \".
I remember hearing a story on a players sack record in high school football once , he attributed his success to tendencies . He noticed a few quarterbacks did something repetetive before going back to pass , at that moment he went all out . One player put a foot back further to get out from center faster , one leaned further back while under center and so on . Do defensive coordinators defense a system or do they defense a player and his tendencies ?? If you are a defensive coordinator , do you defend Duece the same with a high ankle sprain ? No , with Duece injured you stack the middle and blitz the perimeter . Why , because you want him to put outside pressure on the sprain . Duece is still dangerous going North and South and less effective going East and West . Brooks , now someone tell me by week 16 there was not a defensive coordinator on the planet that could not defense Brooks . 95 % of his passes are inside routes , hooks and slants , cut off the inside routes and look for the hooks . How many deep balls did Brooks thow all season long ?? The fly pattern is not an option with Brooks , when he launches these they are not even in the same zip code as the receiver . A direct result of this is , receivers are less likely to get open because there is less of a route threat , Brooks dances waiting for a receiver to get open and spends too much time in the pocket and Lineman cannot hold blocks for ever . All this could be corrected with proper coaching , it all starts with knowledgeable position coaches . Coaches that know their position and were not promoted to it or brought in to fill a void . What makes a Quarterbacks coach an Offensive Coordinator ?? [Edited on 3/1/2003 by saintz08] |
