Russell Wilson Jan 2021 to Schotty: "God blessed me with you"

Is that your daily affirmation? Lol
you know they're not gonna handle any positivity around here if it's not negative it's not worth discussing everything's stupid if it doesn't align with the negative posts that go on about 70% of the front page around here now..

Making fun of a man's beliefs and his relationship with another man is actually pretty sad where I come from regardless of your own beliefs nobody wants to hear any positive stories about Brian schottenheimer because they didn't want him here most of us didn't approve of the hire but now it's happened you gotta get on board or move on...
 
Of course, people are complete packages, not just robots.

Have to say, I like the complete package that rendered these on-the-field numbers reflective of professional performance level. Three of the top four passer ratings the guy ever had. That's not chopped liver. That's compelling. That has to have some gravity. That would not appear to be a random thing.

And those are facts and look at those touchdown numbers I mean literally the man was throwing bombs I mean isn't that what we want one of the top scoring offenses I mean I don't see this as much of A change for Mike McCarthy it will be slightly different and we may not have improved but I think all the negative press about this is going to doom the Cowboys into the Dave campo years that's just ridiculous it looks like he knows how to be an offensive coordinator he has relationships with people around the league he's going to build a good staff I don't know about great I don't know how this is all going to turn out but I'm willing to give it a chance I mean let's just see what happens.

I don't see how this is any different than those thinking that Ben Johnson or Cohen or Glenn or other first time head coaches like they get to bring all that talent and all that coaching support staff with them no they don't have no idea how any of these guys are going to work out somehow people think because they were the hot name that they're going to be automatically better and I hate to break it to people I've sat and watched teams bring all these new guys and it turns out they weren't any good that they need to be coordinators they're not good head coaches it's all a risk..

It's why I would have preferred if BillB would have been available which he wasn't technically he wasn't coming here, they were settling in and the fiancé or wife or whatever she is came out and said they were too far in this process to make a change I would also prefer Pete Carroll but basically we're getting a younger version of Pete Carroll I mean he worked for Pete Carroll he worked with Russell Wilson I believe Prescott is a lot like Russell Wilson they are very much a comp I mean I've been saying that since that was drafted and you watch him play it is career they have very similar traits.

So if you add in the fact that it looks like a pretty good match for this offensive roster ,add some new additions get the run game fixed ,the fact that schottenheimer was already in the building ,that he has a relationship with a lot of these players ,and I just see this is more of a parallel move from Mike McCarthy...

so we're gonna get a little bit of Pete Carroll and a little bit of Mike McCarthy and a little bit of Brian Schottenheimer all mixed together, and we'll see where this goes but I just don't think it's going into the dump the only way this fails and fails hard is if Jerry and Stephen doesn't get Shotty what he knows we need and has a better offseason than we had last year.....
 
Well at least he’s liked
yeah I think you're missing the bigger point...

if he would've really sucked bad at his job, if he was hard to work with ,if he was a straight A hole, we wouldn't be hearing about this...​
The fact is you go look at the numbers and how they align with some of Russell Wilson's best passing numbers of his career with Brian Schottenheimer, that's the positive,​
you should be taking out of this because Prescott's a lot like Russell Wilson they are very similar if I had an NFL comp when Prescott was drafted that was him I kept going to Russell Wilson. he reminds me of Russell Wilson , that's a good thing that Schottenheimer had a good relationship and had some good production with Russell Wilson, and now he is here and has a good relationship with Prescott ,that at least that's a good start..​
that doesn't provide confidence and success because all these new first time head coaches are in the same spot they're all gonna have to prove they can do it themselves without the all in players that they just left without those loaded rosters and the support of a great coaching staff they're all now broke into pieces they have a lot to prove...​

probably the additions of tyler lockett and dk metcalf after giving russ chopped liver at wr for the first half of his career.

Probably not random, but not necessarily because of Shotty. There could be a number of other hidden factors that were the impetus for those results.

I'm not denying the possibility that Shotty should get at least partial credit, if not the lion's share, just that one sample case isn't nearly enough to make that determination.

Russell Wilson was a dang good QB in his heyday. People shouldn't be fooled by those that didn't watch him play. He and Rodgers were two of the best deep ball throwers I've ever seen. Mobile too. Shame he didn't have better OLs.
 
All things considered, these are great numbers. There is some hope here that Schotty can tailor the offense to Dak like he did with Russ.
Are we forgetting that Schottenheimer has been the OC in Dallas the last two years? The same position he held in Seattle? I'm sure we will see some tweaks, but I'm surprised that people expect major changes to the offense.

OK so now you're insinuating that the coaches never have anything to do with it that means Ben Johnson Aaron Glenn and Cohen are in big trouble 'cause I don't get to have those players not altogether as a group not with also the rest of the coaching staff and the offense that can put up 40 points a game at times they don't get any of that there are new teams that were probably bad that's why they're looking for new head coaches so all these coaches who just got hired are on the same footing as Brian schottenheimer until they build something like that and improve the team so it's more about the players and the coaches is what you're saying?

So nobody wants to give schottenheimer any credit for those four really good years for Russell Wilson you now say it's because they put better players on the field well isn't that something that we get back to Russell Wilson now it's not the quarterback it's the players around the quarterback it's not the coaches it's the players around the coaches how about this can we not stay in the middle sometimes around here it's a mix of both and at least schonheimer has Prescott and lamb and they have Tyler Smith Cooper BB they have a core players on defense that are pretty good yes we need to have a strong offseason but schottenheimer is not entering the Dave campo era there's actually talent on this team had we not had 18 injuries last year we probably would have won ten games and we probably took a win or two away from the eagles and Washington they played both our backup practice squad teams they didn't face our starters at all and people keep forgetting that we won seven games with mostly backups...

I mean let's be clear ,it does take talent but it takes a mix of good coaching and good talent,

there's no way Patrick mahomes probably would've had the same success without Andy Reid and vice versa we saw Andy Reid with a solid team in Phily. But they couldn't get over the top but now he's over the top because he finally found his generational quarterback and spags a DC, ALL together they are doing this just like Tom Brady and Bill Belichick when you separate young Aikman from Jimmy Johnson and you separate Aikman from all his better players, they didn't look the same when they had a hall of fame staff they all looked good..

That's all fair.

Right. Whether we like the hire or not, No-Schott has done some things well in his career as a coach. Whether he will be able to here likely depends a lot more on what the Joneses do to give him the personnel he needs. We've had Hall of Fame coaches here, we've had Super Bowl-winning coaches and we've had flame-outs, and all of them have shown that if you don't give them the talent it takes to win, the X's and O's don't really matter.

Not forgetting that at all. But this was definitely Mike's offense and he was the sole playcaller. There will be change no matter what. Whether it's sigificant or good or bad, we will see.

The point is that Schottenheimer has had success as a playcaller, despite the narrative he's failed everywhere.
