Einstein Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 (edited) Anyone else notice McDermott did not have the play sheet in the first half, but in the second half he not only had the play sheet but was also actively speaking (with the sheet over his mouth) between every play? It was a night and day difference in defensive play between the first and second half as well. Or maybe he was ordering wings off the stadium menu.

gonzo1105 Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 He clearly didn’t. You can see Babich screaming in the headset on what to do on the last play. They just settled into the game 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just settled into the game When play calling is taken over, the defensive coordinator doesn’t go home and sit oj the recliner. He is still coordinating position groups and actively speaking to the head coach. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Whoever it was, great defensive adjustments in the 2nd half. Only 3 points surrendered. The STs OTOH... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bookie Man Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Was nice to see a positive adjustment 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warcodered Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 I don't think that's the case, I was not surprised at all that the defense adjusted and suddenly the Cardinals run game was evaporating. That kind of thing happens at halftime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He learned his lesson the first time he admitted that he took over plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billzgobowlin Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Adjustments. Good coaches will adjust and looks like both sides of the ball adjusted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
947 Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 I wish we could make Defensive adjustments on the fly. Why does any change on D have to wait until halftime with McD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Bills held Cardinals to 270 yards which is really surprising with his easily they were moving it in the first half. Cards only averaged 4.3 yards per play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
