Not enough film study per Broaddus

[DogFace]

I disagree. Go look at all the SB coaches then some 'non-SB' successful coaches in the NFL and some don't have his experience.

Landry didn't as much experience as Garrett did when he was named coach and when he was extended. You have to have 'enough' experience to sail even charted seas.

Kiffin has more experience than anyone I can think of off the top of my head but he still sucks for a lot of our fans. So clearly they pick and choose what criteria to apply when and where and how much to support their agenda regardless of the facts.

Facts. Meh who needs 'em.

Can't think of many off the top of my head that didn't "work their way up" but maybe I'm wrong.
I do hope he succeeds this year. The ice ing the kicker extremely poor clock management games like Green Bay and Detroit(twice) are hard for me to overlook and not blame on inexperience. Maybe he just makes really poor decisions and that's not because of his inexperience. I don't know. I just hope he's better this year but I fear he's just not good at adjusting, as others have pointed out, and that holds him back. I blame it on experience or lack there of.

I could see a lot of our bottom feeders feeling like they weren't long for the NFL world so they might as well enjoy whatever time they get.

Dallas did consistently churn the bottom of the roster so I don't think too much job security was an issue with them.

If the so-called core players weren't studying enough film, then that's a bigger concern.

So your premise is that the story / player is full of sh__, or Garrett is just terrible at his job?

I don't know who the player was, so it's hard to answer. It could have been on defense, for example, where the team might have been focussing on something other than film study trying to get new players ready. It could have been an unhappy released veteran. It could be perfectly valid criticism. I don't know.

One thing I do know is that Jason Garrett knows the value of film study. You'd have to be pretty naive to think he did not.

Maybe there is another reason why he doesn't stress enough film.

Maybe he doesn't have the gumption to enforce his will on the players.

Exactly. If he doesn't stress film study--and that's an if--there's a reason for it. Either a good one, or a bad one. But this team didn't look particularly unprepared to me. They looked not good enough on defense.

I thought this thread was about players and film study; knowing the culture when Barry Switzer took over I remember reading somewhere Aikman kind of became the defacto HC and kept the team or at least the ones that would listen focused on the prize. He was the one that kept them practicing and preparing the way Jimmy taught them.
In this case I have heard Shaun Lee is a film room fanatic and tries to get players to go with him; when I listen to players around the league I always here how they are able to beat the better teams is because they have studied film and know their tendencies. I never here that here anymore unless it is Shaun Lee telling how he is always in place for an int. Tje SeaHawks as much as everyone hates Sherman now, stay in the film room, a team of 4th and 4th round talent but physical and willing to put in the necessary work to beat other teams mentally (film) and allows them the freedom to punish physically because they know WHERE to be. We have the talent that is just as good but maybe our players don't put in the necessary time to be better or great.

Did Broadus identify the player? We are all assuming somebody we don't even know made that accusation and it is true. I believe Broadus, but I really question the validity of this player. Maybe he had his own agenda and made such a comment. It is also hard to believe that a man like Garrett would not place a premium on film study.

Over the years, players from other teams have criticized our play-calling, our schemes, etc. I remember when Ray Lewis said they knew everything we were going to do.

To me, Broaddus' comments fit into that overall theme, so I believe him.

We are an unimaginative team that does the same things over and over and seem not to have much success. It doesn't seem as if we scheme to beat teams we need to be. Instead, I've seen too many times where other teams read our game plan as if it were a Dick and Jane primer.

Maybe this player meant he didn't study enough film, and Broaddus used extreme journalism to make his statement.

I am sure that is it. It has to be.

Just a thought, have to look at all angles and agendas...

 

[17yearsandcounting]

Even for you this is a poor post. You think every coach played big time football? Some never played at all or not a lot at any level. Everyone's praising Carroll. What's his background?

Yeah, coaching for 40 years and working your way up from graduate assistant on the college level is nothing. Troy Aikman's water boy surely has him beat.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

I hate to see real talent like Nick Hayden and Kyle Wilber wasted because of a lack of work ethic.

LOL!

No!

Really!

LOL!

Look in the mirror, pal.

Dont like me? Dont read me. Choice is yours.

Last I heard, he was with the Bills.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

As much as we like talking about each other and Garrett's past here, maybe we should discuss the content of Broaddus' claim.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Of course Garrett knows the importance of watching film.

He also knows the the importance of red zone scoring, holding on to fourth quarter leads, and not missing the playoffs when you start a season 7-4.

Problem is, he can't seem to get his team to do these things. Which is what good coaching and leadership are all about.

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

how about this: show me a former backup QB that ever coached a SB winning team. Just as valid as yours and idgets bleating

Off the top of my head both Holmgren and Payton were NFL scrub QBs. Now by all means point to every thing else about them that is different than Garrett. What that should do is demonstrate that your question was a dumb one. But by all means keep loading questions with strawmen and biased standards and firing away.

It is stuff like this that makes me want to troll you. This question is completely off point and inane that it is just asking to be mocked.

You guys like to bandy about that he is unqualified to coach and that no other team would hire him blah blah blah. Then you guys go about a patting each other on the back and circling likes as if that is going to make an unbased, unprovable assertion true.

That is one thing I like better than the constant story time around here: pretending that repeating the drivel somehow makes it more true.

Agreed...say what you want about JG, he doesn't strike me as a guy who would stand for players ignoring film study.

He coached an offense that took the better part of a decade to get players lined up correctly before the snap, is it really such a stretch?

 

[cej757]

Mo Claiborne talked about how he doesn't like to watch a lot of film earlier during the season. I thought that was strange he would just say that like he's a 10 year Vet or something. I doubt a lot of those guys are watching a lot of film and you can see the results on the field.

You should quit while you're behind.

He has to own that. At some point you either reach the summit or you turn around and go back down.
