I would think he learned to dial it back a bit from Colt McCoy. f that dialing back. thats why they brought in a Pastor minister Rabbi priest cleric or two. do your job. wait. that sounds familiar.. 4 hours ago, BillsFan4 said: That was such a great game. I was very impressed with Tua, and also with the way Daboll just changed his offense on the fly like that (when Tua came in the game). It was almost like a completely different offense from the 1st half. this was a signature move. The one that likely cemented McBeanes thinking moving forward..It is a big deal in context 1
Kelly the Dog Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 If it were about Josh Rosen they would report he is uncoachable.

Bills Wilk Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 I heard Belecheat was going to hire Daboll to replace MDanials, but we snatched him up .Thats when Bill had to talk McDanials out of the Indy job to come back

Obviously as a coach you're going to start at the bottom and work your way up. He moves out of the college ranks within a couple years and has some longevity with New England. After that, he bounces around not because his head coach kept firing him, but because his head coach (and entire staff) were getting fired. I think McDermott likes the guy for his high energy but I'm sure he's informed Daboll that he has a certain level of expectation when it comes to respect between coaches and players. McDermott is not the kind of coach to run around and scream like a lunatic and hurl insults, so I doubt he'd be the type of coach to tolerate from one of his assistants. I'm hoping you're right. We'll see.

Ol Dirty B Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 I'm not really surprised. He wasn't molded by, but he worked under Saban. Has worked in both pro and college ranks, college guys usually seem to be a little more off the wall with **** and what they think is ok. Saban reportedly made a guy cry in Miami. Not saying that the guy isn't a B word for crying, but that's what these college coaches do. They go off and lord over people. DIfference is in the NFL the tables are turned, and these guys, especially a guy like Allen are of more importance to a team than a coach. Marrone had his issues also. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out, but I think it'll be ok. The other positive is Allen doesn't know anything other than playing at levels of football yet where guys do anything other than scream at you and overreact. I could be wrong, but in my limited levels of playing and being around the game it seems like you just get screamed at until you get to the NFL. Even then you get bitched at, but I think it's a little more mild. Especially for stars.

It's another thing to keep yelling at your QB about the last play, when he's trying to call the next play. From Pop Warner and HS on, coaches tell their players to let go of a bad play and look ahead .....focus on what you need to do next, not what you just did. How can a Grown-ass Man coaching Grown-ass Men in the NFL expect his QB to do that necessary thing, if he can't do it himself? I don't personally know anyone who is either motivated or improved by constant yelling and belittling . The occasional ass-chewing, sure, but that's more motivational if it's a contrast, if you know what I mean. I think it gets both tuned out and internalized. So it's very disturbing to me to think this could be our new OC's MO 1

And besides, anyone named Colt McCoy should not be a whiny baby about being yelled at. When coaches used to tell him they needed a timeout he used to mope and go sit in the corner for ten minutes. Come on...he put upTeddy Bridgewater numbers in his second year

Sky Diver Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 (edited) "I've got a ton of respect for coach Daboll," McCoy said. "I ended up playing about half the season with him, so we did a lot of good things. … When I started playing, I learned a lot. I think that's natural in your first year, but I'll always consider myself a learner. I want to learn and I want to know the game, and I think coach Daboll really knows the game." http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/2011-09-22/sports/fl-miami-dolphins-0923-20110922_1_colt-mccoy-dolphins-coach-tony-sparano-dolphins-offensive-coordinator Edited May 17, 2018 by Sky Diver

He knows all of us genuinely and he wants the best for us. Just things like that make it seem like he really cares about us and that’s why we love him so much.” https://alabama.rivals.com/news/brian-daboll-and-alabama-players-share-plenty-of-nicknames
Lfod Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 (edited) I'll be honest, this thread has made me a Daboll fan. I wasn't really before today. Thank you. Edited May 17, 2018 by Lfod
Drunken Pygmy Goat Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 "I expect perfection. I know that's not possible all the time, but I think we need to all hold ourselves to a high standard of really setting the tone and expecting the highest detail and the highest execution from all of ourselves." Not making any comparisons here, but this reminded me of old quote from Vince Lombardi. Something like "We strive for perfection. Nobody's perfect, but in the pursuit of perfection, you can achieve excellence". Lombardi certainly was a fiery coach. Maybe Daboll was being too hard in the moment, but it was Cold McCoy for Pete's sake, and it was the Browns...not exactly you known for their high structure characteristics. McDermott is all about accountabilty, but is also very structured. I'm sure if Daboll were to get "out of line" a bit, McDermott would be in his ear. And I'm sure Daboll has learned a lot from mistakes over the years.

The double whammy. Granted, his arm isn't Kellen Moore weak but it's close. Probably the Nathan Peterman level, which equates to not nearly good enough. Why anyone with a paying job in the NFL thinks Colt McCoy can ever succeed is beyond me.
