McDermott’s Defense against #1 Offense? Discuss

Recommended Posts

It’s a good win but this really isn’t unexpected for a McDermott team. When the offense is cooking his defense looks like the best in the league. It’s when the pressure is on that his defense folds. 
 

Also, the fact that we have this much talent and are still needing help to make the playoffs and are in this situation is on McDermott.

For sure, all credit to the offense.

 

And we have amazing talent like Daquan Jones, Matt Milano, and Tre White. I mean, come on man!

I have been critical of some of the DC work Sean has put out there this year...  but the past 2 weeks he has done a really nice job, both in terms of scheme and playcalling. 

 


Yup.  Again, if he’s an introspective person - and he seems to be that - Dunne did him a huge favor by mapping out for him exactly what he needs to work on.

 

McD’s main issue may just be that he’s a slow processor - we all know the type.  He can coach during the week but sometimes has trouble making quick adjustments and decisions in the heat of the moment, which seems to cause him to tighten up.  But if he can fix some of those issues and get better at relating to his players (there are plenty of professional development consultants who specialize in this kind of coaching), he can emerge a much better coach.
