Big coaching advantage for Dallas

[erod]

Two items not being discussed enough....

Scott Lineman knows exactly how to attack the Lions defense and he knows the weaknesses of Stafford and the Lions offensive players to pass along.

And Rod Marinelli has had faced Detroit twice a year for a long, long time.

That will matter Sunday.

Scott Lineman knows exactly how to attack the Lions defense and he's knows the weaknesses of Stafford and the Lions offensive players to pass along.

And Rod Marinelli has had faced Detroit twice a year for a long, long time.

Does Red give us anything in the advantage dept?

 

[bark]

Agree in principle with the op but Jim Caldwell is no slough

 

[EST_1986]

Claps harder than Caldwell

 

[erod]

The Washington game answered that. This team has ALWAYS played hard for Garrett.

How about them knowing Linehan offense? Look at how the texans defense embarassed Kubiak's offense this season

Really?

He knows this how? Unless Linehan was in Baltimore with Teryl Austin last year, then he really has no idea about that defense.

Geez, Erod a little research or something dude.

Most of the Detroit staff is new, so really this thread is just misguided.

 

[Alexander]

This is not Jim Schwartz's Lions defense, so Linehan does not have any particular advantage.

Same goes for giving Marinelli tips on the Lions offense.

I am sure he can help with little things here and there, but I do not think he has some magic book on the Lions across the board.

This idea is getting way overplayed.

Are we really running the Linehan offense? I thought it was Garrett's offense being called by Linehan.

 

[Dale]

I would expect that he might be able to provide us with tendencies or an inside look at things Stafford struggles with that might not be that apprent on film. Maybe tendencies with his cadence or some such.

Scheme-wise, though, I doubt anyone has asked for Linehan's help since their staff is so new.

Wait. This thread does have merit.

Back in 2001, Marinelli and Kiffin were on the Bucs staff. The QB coach that year was .... Jim Caldwell!

Ding. Ding. Ding. We have a match.

Clearly, they know his entire offensive philosophy and tendencies.

 

[BAZ]

Marinelli is going to be traumatized once again by his failure as a man and a human being, going 0-16 with the Detroit Lions. 0 and 16. Yet the man is still in the NFL. Over the legend Monte Kiffin.

Sunday is when the Cowboys season comes to an end, folks.

What a sad little existence you lead.

Fox will have the
"I look clueless camera"
Just like they did with the Barry.

 

[Yoshimitsu]

Linehan knows Staffords strengths and weaknesses. That's a plus.

 

[Red Dragon]

But the Lions know Linehan's offense, too. It goes both ways.

 

[TrailBlazer]

He will know strength and weakness of some players. But that's it. Nothing about schemes they will employ.

 

[Don Corleone]

We don't run his offense.

Look for the pink Samuel L.

 

[AbeBeta]

We don't run his offense.

Nor did the current staff really work with him
