One thing that needs to be said is that in Daboll's previous stops as OC, two of them were under two very crappy offensive HC who stuck their mitts all over the offense, Mangenius and Tony Sporano. So it's hard to even blame him for much of it. The one time with a defensive HC, Romeo Crennell in KC, unsurprisingly he had a good run game (Jamaal Charles) and a crappy passing game (the floundering Matt Cassel).

 

Mangini coahed defense but I hear you.

So what kind of offense does this guy run? What does he like to do? 

 

Im obviously very underwhelmed by this hire but I’d at least like to know what I will be watching on Sundays.

He likes to run, and he likes to pass, and he likes the RPO. In some seasons on some teams they passed a lot, and on some teams they ran a lot, with varying degrees of success, with an assortment of good and bad players, on great and lousy teams, with smart and dumb coaches. He has done very well with some guys and not so well with others, at different times under diametrically opposed situations.

 

I feel really strongly both ways about him.

Just read this guy is only 42. Got his 1st OC job at 34. 

 

I remember back then he was really hot, his bad HC luck threw him back to New England.

Take a breath, you have all year to learn about him. 

Agree.

 

Haven't seen this one posted yet.

Has some Bill B. input.

Yeah thats EXACTLY what I posted said. I get it its the good ole boy system

 

 Absolutely it is. Just the good old boys. All of us against you. It’s what we do around here. We choose random member IDs out of a hat and then we attack. We viciously attack innocent posters for no reason at all.  Borderline criminal really.

First of all, thank you SDS for trying to keep this on topic.

 

I honestly don't know what to think about the hire. I didn't  register the name at all, and I can't remember the teams he was a part of on the NFL. That said I was not high on Dennison when he was hired and my opinion went down from there.

 

Things I like: 

-a willingness to experiment and creatively use the talent around him

- a run first OC. No matter what, it should be the focal point of our offense whether we keep Tyrod or start a rookie

 

Don't like:

-a lack of production at the NFL level previously 

 

I am ok with going to college level for coordinators

Yep said that as well.

How are you underwhelmed if you don't know his philosophy?

My guess is by this guys horrible resume.  I'm not happy at all.  Been through decades of this crap so I'll get over it.  Cool off, hope for the best but every piece of tangible evidence says this guy doesn't have it.

He loves power running... and running it straight down their throats. However he is the type of guy who likes fit his schemes to his players. He wants to put players in a situation to succeed. And he will often try to line his players up in mismatches by finding the defenses weaknesses.
