Yes he should get credit when it's due, and obviously the coaches are are coaching to win the game. At the end of the day things that are easy to see but still not changed until too late or not at all is mind boggling. It's not even the fact that they wanted to run on first down a lot. Its more the handoff right up the middle into a brick wall.
Was it all on him and the coaches? No, it also falls on execution of the players and sometimes Saturday that was the case. Hindsight is also 20-20 in situations and they get paid to coach and I'm just a fan. Onto the next!
Not sure you are kidding or not. If not, 4L has every right to post and make known his opinion. Nobody here is right on everything.
Not a bad point. If that does happen, we would have one position coach position to fill. Getting a ST coach comes to mind.
What do you call an expert?
Some common synonyms of expert are adept, proficient, skilled, and skillful. While all these words mean "having great knowledge and experience in a trade or profession," expert implies extraordinary proficiency and often connotes knowledge as well as technical skill.
I doubt many on here qualify. I have coached for 25+ years and sometimes feel like an expert and others times wish I was a Walmart greeter. On offense, you decide on a play call in under 10 seconds or so. Signal it in and hold your breathe...lol. I have said, " this is going to be a TD once I saw the defensive alignment." But, the damn DC decided to blitz the open field corner and blew up the play. I have also said, "Oh ****, this play is screwed." Ball is snapped and a TD resulted. Bottom line, tendencies and personnel you think you can win against are about all you can plan for going into a game. I love hating and hate loving coaching. It can be awesome one play and suck canal water the next. One thing I know, my play calling is much improved when I have a clear talent edge over the opposition. When it is the other way around, I try to keep it close and win at the end. I hate it most when the talent is even, because you never know what to expect. JUST MY EXPERIENCES. I DO NOT THINK THERE IS AN ANSWER!
You compete any given game day and whomever is better THAT DAY is the winner!
