Of course. Coaching matter a lot. Anyone that has ever played a sport would tell you that.

Hilton's last TD catch was about 90% the play call.

Just about everyone realizes that play calls aren't the end all and be all of football. There has to be a level of talent and athleticism a professional football player possesses or it doesn't matter what the play caller is.

The thing pretty much everyone else knows that in professional sports, the level of athleticism tends to be more minor from the worst to the best players. Unlike college where the difference between a San Jose State and an Ohio State is vast. So when the level of athleticism is minor, things like play calling become more critical.

Though hell, the difference in play calling between Pagano and his staff and Reich is damn near a San Jose State/Ohio State gulf.

And there it is. It shouldn’t require experience in playing organized sports to recognize this obvious fact but for some it is necessary.

There are many aspects of good coaching, but two simple ones Dam doesn’t seem to want to acknowledge are:

1) putting players in a position to maximize their strengths and minimize their weaknesses

2) scheming to create match ups that are to their advantage.

Obviously it’s correct that the players are the ones making the plays. It’s their talents that ultimately get the job done. They simply succeed more often when the coaches do these two things. That just seems like common sense.

I think the same could be said of Al Woods.

Dude stop. Just stop. You are sounding dumber by the second. I am starting to feel a little embarrassed for you. And that is a creeepy feeling.

Stop making me feel creepy!

What? No! Sigh! It is clearly not so even by your own metric. They are interdependent, not binary. You are just a troll now.

So what your saying is ....if you call the dumbest play in the history of the NFL using a guy who never practiced the play might actually snap the ball ????

Yea that’s totally not a coaching error.

You've got to be fucking kidding me! You have found the holy grail that others have been seeking since footballs inception!

You sir are more brilliant than all who have come before you! I believe there is a place for you in Canton!

I tried to make it as simple as possible. You can argue the premises I suppose, though I don't see how.

The people responding are the problem now.

What a waste of a year last year. That pissed me off so much last year that he wasn't fired that I didn't even feel like watching them. Watching them pissed me off even more.

No, he is not winning. Trump is.

This thread needs some chemo.

I really hoped after watching this play in person with Puck and our wife's that I would never see it again …. :cool:

Wait....you and Puke share a wife?




Oh. You meant to say "...Puke and our wives that....."

Man, use of the apostrophe is a killer. :)
