socaltitan Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 Its well known the Pats use a lot of spread concepts. They've borrowed from Chip Kelly. BB and Chip are tight. It wouldn't bother if me Day is the hire. This shows they're really set on tailoring the O to Marcus. I do worry a little about Day's lack of NFL experience. mikemist, bostontitan, Pragidealist, and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with the Eagles and Rams. We just know what Eagles and Rams personnel are going to do ... The Rams run a crap ton of bunch and heavy sets too. Neither one of those offenses are like Chip Kelly’s really. One is West Coast and one is basically the Shanahan/Kubiak offense. titansfb, and Rolltide 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaddKarma Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 This is the NFL. Scheme not near as important as attitude and execution. But offenses do have the advantage to so maybe it will get some traction. Who knows. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not even sure Chip Kelly went full Chip Kelly in the NFL. My point is innovation sometimes comes at a price. We wanted innovation we could project ... well, it might not happen. reo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanDuckFan Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 I'm starting to wonder whether any of us should have questioned the ages and experience level of Mularkey's staff. This is the pendulum swinging too far back the other way IYAM. Younger people with fresher ideas doesn't mean marginal experience and limited success. titansfb, C_Train, and titanruss 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL. This is fair. But, also, I think Flip appears unconsidered for either HC or OC. And that probably drives a bit. Less guaranteed and more just a loss of the expected. I'm ok enough with a college guy, especially one with a second-person connection to Mariota. But it's risk piled on risk. The best response to me was someone on Twitter saying this feels like taking a hot at 18 in blackjack. It FEELS risky. C_Train 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

socaltitan Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 On Wednesday, Belichick and Kelly discussed their relationship in brief spurts with Belichick noting that the two coaches "go back a ways." Belichick said he couldn't pinpoint the exact moment he became aware of Kelly or some of the things Kelly was doing offensively, but he did know that he first started meeting with Kelly when he was an assistant at New Hampshire. Kelly would pay fairly regular visits to Foxborough then, a process that continued when he was an assistant and then head coach at Oregon. Those meetings would mostly consist of an exchange of ideas on all things football. "We had a good opportunity to exchange some ideas, thoughts about a lot of things," Belichick said. "I think Chip has got a lot of great ideas. I think his overall organization of whether it's an offensive system, practice schedule, training, so forth, we talked about a lot of those things and I've learned a lot from him." Belichick declined to offer details on some of the things he's learned from Kelly over the years but did acknowledge that the Patriots have used some of them in their organization. "He had some great ideas that we've incorporated into things that we're doing on a number of different levels," Belichick said. "Some are X's and O's but I would say less that and more other things involved in the program." http://www.espn.com/blog/san-francisco-49ers/post/_/id/21325/good-friends-chip-kelly-and-bill-belichick-go-way-back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly's offenses utilize a number of those 2TE and heavy set concepts too. But they also require a high degree of power and mobility in the O-Line, and at least one exceptional running back.

Fatal mistake if this is how it goes down. Two things I'll say to this. 1. We don't know that. It could be that we want to do what the Rams and Eagles have done just in OUR way. 2. The Rams, Eagles and even Houston made a splash by taking chances with college concepts in their offense. We may have the best QB ever in running college concepts. Maybe we should see how it goes and if we become the innovators not the followers.

tgo Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 Well, the system flamed out with Philly and SF with Ryan Day as QB coach, maybe 3rd times a charm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
