During their Super Bowl season, the Ravens went five consecutive games without an offensive touchdown. How is that even possible? Also ran a slack training camp. Isn't that Jauron-ish?

Isn't that Jauron-ish? it does not matter. what matters is if he has knowledge of coordinators from teams from over a decade ago. that is what determines if he is any good. when he interviews, we must ask him: who was the '99-'00 defensive coordinator of the kansas city chiefs? that will determine if he is any good. sin, losers on this site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NobesBLO13 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 This is crusading Wouldn't mind him bringing in Fassel as OC with hopefully more success than in Baltimore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Wouldn't mind him bringing in Fassel as OC with hopefully more success than in Baltimore. Maybe Fassel could lure JP back to Buffalo!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim in Anchorage Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 No one seems to care that the walk on water Cowher stuck with Kordell Stewart long after whole world could see it was not working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PushthePile Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 No one seems to care that the walk on water Cowher stuck with Kordell Stewart long after whole world could see it was not working. or Shanny with Griese and Plummer. It's not easy finding a QB and even the so called top coaches can't make one out of nothing. Coaches and GMs live and die with the QBs they pick. It's not easy to give up on a big expectation QB and if you do, the backup is usually your last chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was more defending Bellick as a talent evaluator [which the OP seems to question] then anything else. Since Cowher seems to be the new gold standard here, it was a easy comparison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPR4444 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 During their Super Bowl season, the Ravens went five consecutive games without an offensive touchdown. How is that even possible? Also ran a slack training camp. Isn't that Jauron-ish? yes, exactly like Jauron, except for the Super Bowl part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fewell733 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I'm of the opinion that stumbling upon even good NFL quarterbacks has mostly to do with luck and numbers. Billick fielded top notch teams for years with trash at the games most important position. They ran the ball and physically dominated the opposition. If you don't have the stud QB, that's the only way you can win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RkFast Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Yeah, Im sure Baltimore fans are looking to 'give back' that SB Championship becuase Trent Dilfer was under center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bills_fan Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 No one seems to care that the walk on water Cowher stuck with Kordell Stewart long after whole world could see it was not working. Or consistently was made to look like a drooling idiot by Belicheat, despite having better talent. Please Cowher, stay in the TV booth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdelma Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 How many QB's did Levy, Murlakey, Jauron and Williams develop too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
