Dare I say it... I think I miss Dan Henning?

Watching the MNF game right now.. I'm relativeley impressed with the Miami playcalling. And it made me remember how things were when he was here... Especially in the post season.. When post season came around, it was like our offense played at an entirely new level (except for the Seattle game, in which case, we were pretty much done with injuries anyway)...

I mean, he was the one who developed the "wildcat" offense.

Or am I just crazy?

I don't think your crazy. Dan Henning didnt have much to work with in 06, Foster?(:laugh:), Bad oline?, Steve Smith the only competent receiver on the team?. Look what he did in '05, any offensive coordinator that can make the post season with foster as your starting runningback and steve smith the only viable offensive weapon is a great one in my book.

The wildcat predates hennnigs use of it by at least 8 years

Henning is a creative offensive mind that was stiffed by Fox's constant tinkering. So was Trgo IMO. If Fox would just realize that someone new needs to be coaching this D and let Meeks just take it over. Same goes for Davidson. Just take a step back Fox before you choke the life out of this team.

Does anyone notice a trend here? Dan Henning leaves and the offense in Miami is so much better with him. Mike Trgovac leaves and the defense in Green Bay is so much better.

MASTER! MASTER! Master of puppets are pulling your strings...

LOL, Turgo is the line coach. Capers is the DC in Green Bay. Now Kevin Greene is the linebackers coach so there's your real upgrade. :D

Yes, Im fully aware of that. They're a better defensive line now correct? It all starts up front.

they also have a first round pick DT, several new defensive players, and a more effective 3-4 scheme. hes a part, but they aren't better just because of him. maybe we should have just demoted him. the thing is here, i doubt we will ever see what a DC can actually do, because this is John Fox's defense.

    • There is merit to the points you're making here. On the flip side one could argue it took us investing 150 million in the oline for him to have a breakout season. And he has still yet to hit 1k rushing yards in a season. As far as Brooks goes the position does not require that significant of a draft investment for many other teams. That's not being negative it's just a matter of fact. The 49ers did quite well with a UDFA running back while McCaffrey was out. It is understandable that some people have concerns. That being said it boils down to whether or not you believe in the player. We just have to see what happens with him and Brooks.
    • Okay, that day in Vegas had to embarrass him completely. Andy showed him how to do the job.  What I think when I go there, why did it take Andy? He has had game after game of watching actual NFL QBs work and that didn't do it?  Anyhow Andy did not mess around, he stood in there and did his job and got rid of the ball ahead of the pressure. Down the field. With the same players Bryce had. Night and day.  If that didn't wake him up nothing ever would. But I don't think he has any sort of top NFL QB in him, he just lacks the full tool kit. 
    • Team is dangerous right now, all four lines are contributing and the speed at which the guys play at is tremendous.
