Teddy on Joe Brady

If someone gave me a microphone after leaving a bad job I would probably be in court.  Sure he was to blame, and the practice schedule is not his call--My dad used to say, "When you do your job to perfection, then you can question how others are doing theirs if it impacts your ability to do your job to perfection."

Teddy in Denver is good because the altitude will keep his passes in the air a bit longer.

One of the things you do to help a young OC is pair them with a veteran quarterback.

That didn't really go so well for us.

Yeah, I know Teddy's shortcomings.   It is why I didn't want him and wasn't excited about him.  I was the dude lobbying for PJ Walker all season. 

I also think Teddy came off bad.  Thought he came off bad while here.  He never took stuff on the chin like a Cam Newton did and still does.   It's why Belichick brought Cam back.  

All that said....

I still think he brought up something noteworthy about Joe Brady in year 1 as an OC.  I would hope in year 2 the practice reps amp up in that department.   We do sound light there.   And we definitely looked weak there.

Sounds like a fair and very specific critique.

Out staff was 99% new to the NFL. Of course they don’t do a lot of things well. They’ll learn.

They still did better than 7 other veteran staffs.

but I do think Joe Brady has a lot of room to grow...despite already being impressive.   And maybe his hands were tied.  Not a normal offseason.  No preseason.  Maybe it was a choice he knowingly made that they were better off focusing more time on getting the overall offense down in such a weird year. 

Yea that's beyond fuging obvious. You have to install an entire offense in the COVID offseason. They almost certainly didn't get everything in the base offense and probably added things as they went along in the season.

But even still a rookie OC has things to work on...no fugIN WAI. For that matter Rhule had shitty clock management too as he clearly was used to college and the clock was derped often. Nothing that was said is anything close to an issue atm. Nothing, close, at all.

What I've said in private about previous jobs is completely different to what I've said in public - and I wasn't being paid $20m, nor could multiple people tear my story to shreds if they so chose.

But in fairness, he didn't say they never practiced it.  Just that it was noteworthy how little they devoted to it vs elsewhere in the NFL. 

2 minute, redzone and short yardage were areas from watching that stood out as problems for an offense that overall was schemed pretty dang well. 

Could this be an analytics issue? Could they be spending an equivalent amount of time practicing red zone as they actually spend in the red zone? Meaning they are spending more time practicing between the 20s. As we improve moving the ball into the red zone, maybe the time devoted to practicing there will increase.

    • That's not an nfl issue it's an owner issue. The owners put pressure on the coaches to play them before they are ready. Very few if any have a vet to sit behind for at least a year to learn and adjust to the game. The Panthers would benefit from having a serviceable veteran that would allow them to sit their next rookie. Had they done that last season maybe things would look different. 
    • My dude, why do you keep doing things like this?  I don't take joy in questioning anyone else's intelligence or reading comprehension skills, but you keep doing things like things, and I can't let such asinine responses go without calling them out, it's just not in me to do that. LITERALLY in the very first sentence of the post you quoted, I straight up acknowledge and accept that you would take the QB there if you can't trade down, which in turn, is an acknowledgement of how you view them as an elite prospect. Period. There is no debating that, I literally right there in the first sentence did EXACTLY what you are claiming here that I can't do.   BEYOND any of that, you're still completely ignoring my question to you, which is a completely valid question in a discussion such as this right now, let's recap shall we........ The generic question is what to do with the #1 pick.  It's near unanimous that we use it to trade down, great, since we all agree, we can move past it in regards to the current discussion, as it's a hypothetical that requires another team's help to happen.   So we move onto the question of what we would do with the #1 pick if we have to make the selection there, great, simple, easy peasy, on the same page still. You have said you'd take a QB, I disagree, but numerous times have acknowledge you and some others feel that way (even though you bafflingly thing I haven't, disagreeing with someone isn't refusing to acknowledge their view). In the last 28 years the only positions to go #1 overall have been QB, DE, and OT.  I've clearly explained why I don't see any of those positions making sense for the Panthers, in our current state, to take in this draft, with this draft class.  Because of that, you still have to make a selection, you don't get to pass on making a pick. So I said I would take T-Mac with a full explanation (numerous times) as to why I view him as the prospect to take compared to the other options.  To which you deride and question my football intelligence solely for saying I'd take a WR #1 overall when you don't have a QB. I then ask you a simple question, which you refuse to answer solely on the basis of you saying you'd go with the QB.  You can't attack someone for saying they'd take a WR there and then refuse to answer the question of who you would take instead if you couldn't take a QB. Because there is a very real possibility that the Panthers will look at the QB's and agree with me (and many others) that there isn't a QB that is worth the risk taking at #1 overall and they end up unable to trade back and have to make a pick there and won't go with a QB because of their grades on this class.   Which again, is my question to you, in THAT scenario, who are you drafting 1st overall if it's not a QB? It's a simple question, and answering it doesn't mean you don't believe in the QB's at that spot in the slightest, or even that I'm not accepting of your views on the QB's in this class.
