Coach Tuesday Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Anyone know what this entails? I'd appreciate a description. Try to resist the urge to add a sarcastic response, please... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corp000085 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Try to resist the urge to add a sarcastic response, please... 602620[/snapback] well that's the kiss of death for any sort of legit answer in this thread! just kidding From what i can assume, i'd say that "quality control coach" is a token title to AVP. He'll probably work with the QBs specifically on the field, do some classroom work off the field, and be there as an extra guy to help with general coaching. He's also there to boost his resume for a real coaching job, and as a backstop in case one of the real coaches here hjas to take the fall either during or after next season.

scribo Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Does this mean AVP will be working out of a closet a la Mularkey in Tampa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Quality Control usually means that his primary duty will be self-scouting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 A Quality Control Coach spends his time studying film looking for tendencies in our offense and the opponents defense. Basically he is just an extra set of eyes and ears for the offensive or defensive coordinator. AVP is a nice addition. Im sure he will work with QB's as well.

Beerball Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Quality Control usually means that his primary duty will be self-scouting. 602635[/snapback] So AVP sits all day looking into a mirror? Self-scouting, hmmmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try to resist the urge to add a sarcastic response, please... 602620[/snapback] It's a lot of grunt work. The main responsibility will be breaking down film. Gregg Williams was a QC for Tennessee for his first year. MM had the same job when breaking in with Tampa under Sam Wyche. I would imagine that they'll have AVP sit in on the QB meetings.

todd Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Anyone know what this entails? I'd appreciate a description. Try to resist the urge to add a sarcastic response, please... 602620[/snapback] Yeah, basically he's a grunt. He watches tons of film, identifies key tendencies, documents stuff on opposing team's plays, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marv's Neighbor Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 He basiclly make sure that the Starbucks & Lunch orders are correct and that everybody gets the right change back! On the road he decides who gets the window and who gets the aisle so that nothing occurs that would be "offensive." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramius Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Yup, a lot fo grunt work with film and such, and mostly the title is used as a foot in the door type of deal. You need ot start out somewhere coaching, so you start as quality control, then position coach, coordinator, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not knocking the door down to get super bowl tickets next year, but i fully expect the offense to perform better than last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RkFast Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Boy, does anybody fall ass-backwards into more jobs than AVP? Does he have some compromising pics of Ralph or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does he have some compromising pics of Ralph or something? 603203[/snapback] Huh? The guy had coach written all over him during his playing days (ask Jimbo how much he relied on AVP) and has been trying to land an NFL gig for the last two years. Alex is going to be a very good coach very soon. He'll be tough to replace on the radio as well. He's sharp and can communicate well, which are very much the qualities Marv said he's looking for. As for compromising pics, that's Chuck Lester's gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
