I beg to differ my friend. Superior is a highly subjective word in this case. Griffin played in an "all-go" spread offense at Baylor, and he didn't need to worry about learning to read defenses because, err, the Big-12 doesn't believe in them. Cousins, OTOH, played in a pro-style...
C'mon now - what could anyone possibly have against a guy who looks like the nerds from Superbad punked him for his lunch money. Daily.
He better hold out for a team that utilizes his strengths and tries to minimize his weaknesses. I have always believed we paid too much for a scheme corner...
Dude was a wizard. Who woulda thunk an ex-surfer could've been so freaking in the know about what it takes to put together a successful team.
EDIT: I say 'ex' which is a misnomer. Cuz anybody who's been there knows once you've been in a lineup, you were always there, and always will be. Hail.
Of course, as we've witnessed to our dismay with the Bruce, progeny does not guarantee success. Wade Phillips, Kyle Shanahan, are the exceptions rather than the rule regarding successful coaches with successful coaching fathers. Even the immortal JG's sons opted out of the NFL landscape by...
Boone, your Bram Weinstein audio is awesome. I can't comment on it there so I will here. I have never shied away from my contrarian nature; as a young man I loved the Celtics when every friend I had was a hardcore Lakers fan, so being a B&G diehard on the wrong side of the country has never...
Agree. Maybe I'm just guzzling the Kool-Aid here but the more I think about this the better I feel. AS is a better fit for Gruden's WCO because I think he's more adept at the timing on shorties and intermediate routes. Not only that, he's definitely better at making something happen with his...
Thanks Spear, but would you care to elaborate? I'm reading that he was instrumental in the Alex Smith deal, but I haven't followed his career arc as a FO guy with us. What are the negatives associated with that promotion, if you wouldn't mind.
Apologies if this has already been discussed and I missed it, but what's the feeling here re: Doug Williams as our future GM? Is that a possibility, and if so do you fellas like the notion or no?
I dunno. I'm a UCLA guy, follow them almost as closely as I do our B&G, and he never stood out to me in the games I watched. He's solid but unspectacular IMO.
Good read. Here's a link from that article as well that talks about the similarities between what the Chiefs did with him and what the 'Skins might want to do...
