RuntheDamnBall Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Good for them. Hopefully she has the credentials and does well with the Cards. There could be worse things in sports than having more positive female role models in the sports world. As a father of two girls it would be nice for them to see more of that.

hondo in seattle Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Interesting. There is no skill set in football that the right woman couldn't teach. The problem, of course, is that most women don't have the background as players or college coaches to land NFL gigs. And that's a huge obstacle with no obvious/easy solution.

Blokestradamus Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 This interview with her is making me love her. I get excited just listening to her talk about tackling technique. We have the same rugby background and the same philosophy on teaching tackling as an art form. The innuendo is also absolutely hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats to Jen Welter She did play in an indoor league. There are few options for women to play football. I hope she does well. Coaching is about strategy and motivation and talent management. It takes leadership. If she has those skills she's ahead of a number of coaches who've recently darkened the doorways of the Ralph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Good for them but to be 100% honest, I'd would be weird to be coached by a woman. I see it more in other sports like baseball or even basketball but football is different. But I hope she does well and does a good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
