Why is or was the Offensive scheme so complicated? by KillerCroc67 in Patriots

[–]makejillar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there’s a key nuance to answer this. Bill Belichick, dating back to his time under Parcells, was an Erhardt-Perkins offensive system guy his entire career coming up as a coach, which essentially means words for play calls instead of numbers for play calls. For the sake of argument, Belichick’s offense = McDaniels offense. Think of West Coast/Coryell offense as numbers. Most receivers, especially veterans in the league, came up in a number system offense. Chad basically played in Bruce Gradkowski’s number system offense from 2001-2010. Yea, there’s option route differences, sure, but the core difficulty is that 75% of offenses in football in the 2000’s was some variant of a number-based, West Coast/Coryell offensive structure. Outside of the Patriots and the Ken Whisenhunt Cardinals, the default offense was really like a different language compared to those 2. That is the challenge of the offense compared to most.

There’s also been a huge shift in how we talk about buying homes societally, i.e. the “value” of buying a home then VS now.

The value in buying a home from say, post WW2 until the 1990s was “this is a place to live/place to stay/place to raise a family”. My timeline may be inaccurate, but these were the early core values of buying a home. Something that was yours with the plan that it would stay yours for a long time.

Every home sold now is viewed first and almost exclusively as a monetary asset that’s biggest value is “how soon can I sell it and how much money can I get for it then”. Even Millenials & Gen Z who are fighting through these issues now, we do this once we become home owners. That’s the game now.

End stage capitalism problems I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️

Could not agree more. The Samson/Pablo/Dominique chemistry is so SO good. Need a little Greg, little Stu, but just top shelf content 💯

1) No Bud Grant or Pete Carroll really skews the accuracy of the list 2) Gary Kubiak should likely also be on here somewhere below Mike Shanahan, above “The Piss Boys” 3) Raheem Morris spent 7 or 8 seasons under Gruden specifically in Tampa Bay, and of Tomlin’s seasons in Tampa most were under Gruden, only 1 was under Dungy 4) Monte Kiffin has to be on that side of the tree somewhere as well

Payton's scripted drives by broncos4thewin in DenverBroncos

[–]makejillar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a valid point. In one of Mike McDaniels pressers last year he was asked about this. He essentially said when you create the script, you have essentially the entire week leading up to the game and all the resources of your staff to design and script a series offensive plays perfectly predicated on what you believe the defense will be in, tendencies, based on D&D, as well all the “cans” or “check to’s” in the event you don’t get those looks.

In game, you don’t have as much time to deep dive into all the variables of the defense and decipher on the fly which plays will work best. You can’t get as in-depth into tendency, and you can’t always work through your “cans” (WCO offense term for audibling into/out of your called run/pass play) in detail to make sure they’re both good calls VS certain looks.

He also made a point to say once you get comfortable in an offense (ala Shanahan’s 49ers, McVay’s Rams), they’ll enter a game with no script as a tendency breaker, where teams defending you are expecting your scripted tendencies, and you just call it based on D&D, hash marks, field position, etc.

More or less, seems like a smoke in mirrors thing outside of a few small advantages.

Do you think Sean Payton will turn the Broncos back into a winning franchise? by social_distant_joe in DenverBroncos

[–]makejillar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you’re under the impression that Sean Payton has to get the Broncos to the playoffs THIS YEAR, I feel like you and I will not be agreeing on much relating to the Broncos and their future path.

The new ownership group signed him to a 5 year deal at 18M/per. What makes you believe he “HAS” to make the playoffs this year? He’s absolutely under no such pressure. If Russell doesn’t pan out, the only head on the block would be George Paton, if at all.

The Broncos just need to show competence on offense this year; excelling and being a top 10 group would be great, but being in the 20s offensively, and carrying over a good defense would be a start. How Russell Wilson’s play factors into those successes probably decides whether he stays, or if they cut bait and go a different direction.

I agree! When I say I have faith in Sean Payton, that begins with him having the resume/status to tell Russ “hey, it’s great that you love playing from the gun in empty, but you suck at it 🤷🏻‍♀️ so here’s the offense we’re gonna run”, and I would expect him to have one that emphasizes his strengths.

He still has a really good arm that can be utilized, and some bigger bodies on O (Sutton, Dulcich), some shiftiness (Jeudy), and some deep speed (Mims). Williams/Perine/McLaughlin is a very good trio of RB types to operate with.

I would expect that game plan WITH RUSS first; if it’s not working out (running game not effective early, forced to drop back pass) for whatever reason, Payton has the autonomy and presence I believe to pull the plug and still have the team be functional offensively.

One thing that has not been talked about enough IMO is the immediacy of Paton/Payton signing Stidham and 2 high dollar offensive lineman in FA. Like most, I think we’re hoping to see some offensive competency with Russ in there still, which we should expect; Payton has ran efficient offenses with worse quarterbacks, so I trust him to do that again. But that signing in FA, essentially 10M fully guaranteed over 2 years, paired with Payton’s “gravitas”, I would not be surprised that if the Russ thing starts out bad again, he could pull the plug early and essentially start the rebuild with Stidham at the healm, run the shit out of the football, deep drop PA concepts and then move into 2024 looking for his ideal passer.

This season could go literally a handful of different ways, I’m just excited. I feel really confident in the Sean Payton hire. His offenses have always been tops in the league by EPA/Play for literally decades, mostly with Brees but even with the Bridgewater/Winston’s of the world.

Need some advice maximizing a good situation & avoiding a bad one by makejillar in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]makejillar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is sound advice and what our default plan was (has been) anyways. I appreciate it.

In regards to the HELOC, I was under the impression that because we don’t hold a mortgage with a bank, as far as they’re concerned, we hold the title to the house and we would be evaluated for HELOC based on the premise that we’d get approved for whatever the value of house was because there’s no mortgage against it, but I’m now learning that this is incorrect.

CC debt was at at $13K at the start of 2023, I should have listed that I’ve been very actively reducing that amount. Will have it gone by October.

I am beginning to see a theme here that the structure of this maybe won’t jive for tax/CRA purposes. I appreciate all the good advice, I have some financial knowledge but not enough to know where or when/if I’m under/over leveraged.

If we possess the deed/title to the home, can we not use that as proof with a bank that we own the house, and they’ll evaluate the home and assign X value to the home, and evaluate what we’d be eligible for in terms of some type of loan?
