And that somehow adds up to never finishing outside the top 15 in total offense and almost always finishing in the top 10.
Yes as evidenced by his multiple top 10 offenses. I swear people just don't care how dumb they look these days. A little research is all it takes.
...and Hilariously, You sir, are exhibit A in the category of people that you are referring to. :lol::lol::lol::lol:
Santonio Holmes, who fans love to pretend is a No.1 receiver, would not start on the Eagles (pre Late year meltdown). Keep that in mind when heaping praise on MM.
and, it also adds up to Eagle nation being totally dissappointed w/the constant failures in the RZ and the inability to put teams away in big games and hideously dumb play calling in critical moments of games. A generally productive offense that shits the bed at crunch time is not a great offense despite having flashy stats. If that offense was so great, Marty wouldn't be coming to NYJ as OC. I'm not darksiding the hiring of MM - just being realistic here - he hasn't set the league on fire.
Nailed it. Lots of yards, consistently turnover prone and terrible in the red zone despite top flight talent at every skill position. Never as good as they should have been! Better than Sparano but let's hold off on popping the champagne.
It's not a sexy hire, but it's a solid one. Besides, I'm pretty sure Andy Reid was calling most of the plays with the Eagles. And, it's not like they were always a doormat with him around. This year was probably an aberration, but when you have a coach for 12 years, it's time to move on.
So since you were clearly full of shit in your post about pass pass pass punt pass pass pass punt bullshit you decided to change the argument when you got called out on it? Let's just look at points scored as that's very important for an offensive stat 2006: 6th 2007: 17th 2008: 6th 2009: 11th 2010: 3rd 2011: 8th 2012: 29th 2012 was obviously a terrible year for the Eagles, but prior to that under Mornhinweg they consistently ranked in the top end of the league in points scored. Call me crazy but if he can get us top 15 in yards and points we'll be an extremely dangerous team. I'll take my chances on his ability in "crunch time". Obviously we need to give him a lot more talent than we currently have on offense, but that would be the case for any OC we brought in. At least we know this guy can make shit happen when he has the tools.
I'm not popping any champagne, but I'm excited about the hire. The guys offense consistently gains yards and scores points. That's what I care about. Yes, we need to give him more talent to work with.
So this guy has constantly produced good offenses yet I still see complaining? The red zone inefficiency is alarming but certainly correctable as all you really need is a go to guy there just like Plax was for Sanchez in 11. Hopefully Hill steps up and becomes that guy
I would be perfectly fine with the Jets taking offense in every round of the '13 draft. Rex needs to work with what he can get for now.
Finally some one that gets it. We haven't had a top ten offense since Testaverde and this guy has constantly been around there. Not to mention he has a record of developing QBs. This board just amazes me sometimes
The actual fix with Testaverde had nothing to do with throwing deep. Belichick told Vinny it was ok to throw the ball away. Also, they found most of Vinny's interceptions came when he tried to throw on the run, or after scrambling around the pocket. They told Vinny to make the commitment to run fully, and not throw while scrambling.
When? What I remember is, Vinny thrived, and it had nothing to do with WCO. (Parcells was here. He doesn't like WCO. End of the story.) P.S. If you guys still don't get it yet, the offensive system in place while Vinny was with the Jets is the very system Cheat is using up in Foxboro; it's called Erhardt/Perkins system. Ok?
If Jets had these on offense, they would have won SB one time or another. AND would have made it to the playoffs just fine the next year. Or am I wrong to assume this? (Sure, the offensive talent on Jets squad last year was nothing like that of Eagles, but I still tend to think Jets had a pretty good offensive personnel during the two AFCCG run.)
Excellent response. My feelings to a T. As a passing comment No OC could be a winner with the offense we fielded this past year. Further, the G and P is not a winning strategy in today's NFL. This is a great hire to shape the offense for the future, not to salvage our existing inept offense. How much it gets done this year will be a function of many factors, including of course existing contracts, who stays, who goes and so one. Hopefully we will not go for a patch solution but focus on the long term. I'm not a big Sanchez fan but I can't see him being less effective in a more aggressive pass first offense than the usual run, run, run and then pass when the whole world knows he will.
