JohnC Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 If you watch the OC, DC and HC on the sidelines you don't see any histrionics. Whether the play works out or not you see composure and not a loss of it. There is engagement with the players but the main focus is on the respective calls for both sides of the ball. The wrestling coach can be animated but he never loses his focus on the game and the next play coming up. Last year the coaching conduct in general exhibited immaturity; this year the coaching conduct in general exhibited maturity. The HC sets the tone for the team. And the contrast between last year and this year are starkly different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan130 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 What surprises me about frazier is the timely blitzing he has done. I thought he was more of a rush 4, cover 2 type coach. But he has actually has a perfect mix of blitzing and rushing just 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firemedic Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Agreed. Not just play calling, but communication and situational awareness too. There was one communication breakdown on the TD, but that was the only one. The past two seasons, that stuff was happening 15 times a game.wishing theyd have called a time out then 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Overall Frazier has been calling great games. It's almost impossible to argue. There are a few things I have bitched about concerning the offense. But there are hardly any on the defense. Even the one thing they have consistently not done well, too soft a zone on the middle of the field 10-15 yards, we haven't been killed on. Today backs out of the backfield were an issue but didn't kill us. The defense overall has just been fantastic. All three units, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatdrinks Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 He's done a great job. I didn't love him as a HC and thought he was often too conservative. He Has been calling a very good mix of pressures and coverages. Can't do it much better than he has thus far. Communication has been excellent and a far cry from the clown show of the last two years.

Matt Milano vs Devontae Freeman was, yikes. I'm usually in favor of an aggressive defense. Usually bend but not break defenses are bend but then break. But this one, and ones Opie had coached at Carolina seem to do the don't break thing well enough that it's a great defense. Four games. Two roads games. Jets, Panthers, Broncos and Falcons no one can say is weak schedule. And one TD pass? Four total TDs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 McD's scheme and players, but Frazier is calling the plays. Heck of a job so far imo with a group that is new to playing together. Absolutely! The guy was viewed as such a good defensive coordinator that he became a head coach because of it. Thank god that didn't work out because now he's with us.
