Reading this article made me so excited - WCO & smart coach vs Sparano & the Wildcat

[Vaark]

Reading Tony on paper, you never really get the essential essence of him since all the "ya know's" and "at the end of the day's" are edited out. What I do know is that this was a HC who aside from calling more than a few game-losing timeouts, like the NO game at the end of the half, who was so offensively clueless that he elected to throw his players under the bus for poor execution rather than to put the blame on the playcalls of the brontosaurus-like OC which was so predictable, that the opposing defense admitted they mostly knew what was coming. For us: additon by subtraction; for the jest: subtaction through addition!!

Sparano is really not a very creative or knowledgeable coach. He's found the Wildcat and now he's going to keep squeezing that thing long after the blood is gone out of it. It's all he has. And he won't adapt, either. It's not in his nature. He'll run the Wildcat and he'll be as predictable as he always was in Miami.

By the time we play the Jets in week 3 that team will be in total offensive disarray. I mean, does that team even have a competent RT? How long until Marc Colombo un-retires and joins the rotten barge that is that team? Should be hilarious to watch.

hey at least the WCO is innovative

man, I won't lie, I was taking wins anywhere I could find them. so, when the wildcat sunk the Jets on MNF and shocked teams and got us wins, I was all for it. honestly, though, that crap got stale pretty fast and it was surprising it saw success as long as it did. Tebow will not resurrect any version of that offense on a consistent basis.

"With Ricky (Williams) and Ronnie (Brown), the reason that we had to do it that way in Miami at that time was those were really our two best players at that point, and part of the philosophy was to get the two best players on the field at the same time. And in doing so, we created some matchup problems that way. I think the difference (with Williams and Brown) is there was very little element of pass involved in that, where obviously with Tim, that's a different element that way. So if we decide to go down that road, the element of being able to throw the football out of that brings a complete different dynamic into the picture here." - Sparano on the Tebowcat

After reading this article about Sparano, the Tebow-cat and the Jets I was suddenly overcome with joy at the fact that we are moving towards a dynamic passing attack with Joe Philbin and Mike Sherman's West coast offense. Sparano's offense is old school and gimmicky. All of the best teams in the NFL in the last few years are moving away from the ground and pound game and moving towards high powered passing. Even teams like the bears who for years were ground and pound have moved on from from that mentality because it rarely wins Superbowls anymore.

While I do hold out hope, I dont necessarily think that we will be better than the jets and bills this year. I think that the switch to the WCO in the next few years it could pay huge dividends, especially if Tannehill can be a top 10 guy down the road. I think the jets will have a breakdown later if sanchez has his normal mid season slide and the team will be pressured into a switch to Tebow. When Tebow comes in he will probably do good first until every team figures out his game. Just like everyone figured out the wildcat and it stopped working.

Bro, I'm gonna go SLIGHTLY out on a limb and all but guarantee you that we will be #2 in the AFC East. It will all come down to this: Can Coyle continue to keep our defense as good or slightly better than the level Nolan had it? If he can, we WILL be #2 in our division.

Whatever. This is a Dolphins board. The fact that a blowhard like Junc roams it isn't reason to avoid talking about Sparano or the Jets in general. I couldn't give less of a **** about what that dingbat says about anything, and neither should anyone else.

All true. But I know there are people that seriously annoyed when he puts his two cents in on threads like this. So while I understand where you are coming from, I am just stating a fact as well as giving a heads up at the same time.

True enough. But those people should just put Junc on their ignore list. In fact, we'd probably all be better off if we all put Junc on our ignore lists.

Ronnie Brown is a better passer than Tim Tebow.

 

[uscalum]

If Brown and Williams were the two best players why couldn't they have been on the field together but with a legit QB out there? there are 5 OL .. that means with a QB, there are 5 other skill players to line up .. I guess the problem is if Brown or Williams weren't good in the passing game .. but coaches get locked in boxes and confused with how pieces should fit if it isn't traditional.

 

[The Goat]

There are no words to describe how gleeful I'm going to be when the Jets get a drive going, and then suddenly they trot out a Wildcat formation to completely ruin their momentum.

 

[SeanSmith24]

wildcat is dead, sparono will ruin matt sanchez, ti m tebows career....im also glad we are turning into the new packers, thank god

That's what all the Tebots are cackling about over on TGG at least.

Unfortunately for the Tebots and the Jests, NE set the pattern for how to beat Timmy Tebow, and the Bills and Chiefs proved that even teams without great offenses could do it. The idea is to contain the run and force Tebow to pass while the DBs stick to their assignments. The Pats, Bills, and Chiefs did that. Pitt did NOT. They sold out to stop the run, and their DBs didn't cover well. Part of the problem was probably the injuries -- I think they lost a number of LBs in that game -- but I think a bigger issue was that Dick Lebeau thought his D could play Tebow differently.

I don't think that teams will make that mistake this year if Tebow gets to start. I think that by about the Jests third or fourth home game, the crescendo of "Tebow! Tebow! Tebow" will force Sanchez to the bench.

tebow will not be our starting QB and the Bills haven't figured out a way to beat Sanchez since he threw 5 INts early in his rookie season. teams have to prepare for a Sanchez led O and the gadget plays w/ tebow, you don't think a defensive guru like rex realizes this?

The wildcat in Miami came from Sparano assistant David Lee, who's now with the Bills, not from Sparano.

In the season opener, the Jests play the Bills. Super Mario prefers to play on the left side of the line, which means he'll line up over Wayne Hunter. Ouch! The last time the Jests played Houston, Schottenheimer moved D'Brick over to the right side to face Mario. Will Sparano be smart enough to do that? If he doesn't, it's likely curtains for Sanchez who seems to be less bothered by left-side (blind side) rushers than he is by right side rushers whom he can see. That's partly what happened last season: when Sanchez saw the right side rush coming, he panicked.

The jets never moved Brick to the right side, Williams killed Hunter but the jets won the game. I expect the same in week 1 and maybe this year mario will get his 3rd double digit sack season. I love Bills fans acting like they got Reggie White or Deacon Jones.

Yeah, I'm aware. Hence my use of the word "found."



Exactly. In the first five weeks the Jets play the Bills, Steelers, Dolphins, 49ers and Texans. Every one of those defenses besides the Dolphins should be stellar next year.

A rough start awaits that Jets offense. The calls for Tebow have already started, of course, but that kind of run should turn things into a full blown Tebownado.

ahhh the hopes of a dolphin fan in May.

welcome to our board, we hope you stay and start to contribute to discussions.

when you do that you learn less.



It's so cute that the two cellar dwellers in the AFC East are so concerned w/ the Jets.
