Bengals to interview former Cowboys RB coach - Bengalholic - 01-19-2021
Former #Cowboys RB coach Gary Brown, who took last season off to address health concerns, is set to interview next week with the #Bengals, source said. Healthy again, Brown — a trusted mentor to Zeke Elliott and others — plans to coach in 2021 and could have multiple options.

Well the last two interviews that were announced ended up being a bad omen for the candidate.

The #Bengals are about to get one hell of an RB coach -- assuming they award him the job.

I've said it a hundred times already, but here's one more:
The absence of Brown in Dallas was FELT in 2020. https://t.co/O5yCXbyvw3
RE: Bengals to interview former Cowboys RB coach - BacknDaDey - 01-19-2021
Didn't RB coach Gary Brown also work with Pollack in Dallas? I think they worked with Zeke Elliot first.

I would say it was more "the absence of 3 All-Pro OL in Dallas was FELT in 2020." Lol
Granted, he might be an awesome coach, I don't know. I just thought it was funny that it's the RB Coach missing that was felt, not the enormous downgrade in OL quality when their All-Pro C retired, their All-Pro LT only played in 2 games, and their All-Pro future 1st ballot HoF RG missed about half the season.

Quote:Coincidentally, 2013 was the first year Frank Pollack joined the Cowboys’ staff as the assistant OL coach to Bill Callahan. Brown and Pollack stayed together in Dallas from 2013-2017, with Pollack being the main OL coach beginning in 2015.
In their final two years working together, Dallas managed to manufacture one of the NFL’s best rushing attacks. This began with the team drafting Ezekiel Elliott in 2016 to run behind a star-studded offensive line. From 2016-2017, Dallas was first in both Expected Points Added per rush and success rate on rushes. Elliott led the NFL in rushing yards during those two years, as many NFL fans remember.
Copied from sbnation.

My second biggest criticism of zac last year was burrow threw too much for a rookie. My first was who he played on the line.
To me, it sounds like we're taking steps to fix both those problems. Line changes and utilizing the run would've done wonders for our offense.

Sounds like him and Pollack are on the same page. Seems like it would be a great hire.

Definitely a match made in heaven with chemistry already established. I am all in for this!

Agreed.
And to add, I think that's been a problem with a lot of Zac's staff, he didn't have guys all on the same page. So at times he took guys just to fill a spot. Building a quality staff takes years, especially after a housecleaning. I'm hoping this is the start of us getting a core group of coaches together and if there is a head coaching change in the near future, the next guy walks into a better situation.

For any QB.
If you look at the 9 full games he played and put that to 16 games, he was on pace to throw 658 passes. That would have tied for 12th most all time.
Now if you look at the fact that Burrow threw 29 passes in the first half of the Washington game, that would be a 58 pass full game. If you work that into his stats for the 10th game, the pace it would then be is 685 passes in a 16 game season. 685 passes in a season would be the 3rd most in NFL history.
That's just too much passing be it a rookie or not.
The Top-10 most passing attempt seasons include only 3 playoff teams, and 0 playoff wins. It's not a real recipe for success.

Interesting, I hadn't plotted that data out. But it makes me feel more justified in watching the games and saying to myself "why do we even have running backs?"

Let's get Wade Phillips while we're at it and become Cowboy's East.

Well we've got a talented qb and an overinvolved owner, might as well have the wins

Cowboys are already in the East, because the NFL doesn't own a globe; so we'd have to be Cowboys North
As to the OP: WHO DEY!!

I dont see that changing and Burrows down with it... I'd like to see it geared to kinda like KC does though...

RE: Bengals to interview former Cowboys RB coach - XenoMorph - 01-19-2021
wait wait wait...
Stud running back
Running behind
5 Stud OL guys = Success in the run game?
Well crap.
RE: Bengals to interview former Cowboys RB coach - Synric - 01-19-2021
Interesting... two guys that learned how to build their run offense from Bill Callahan.
RE: Bengals to interview former Cowboys RB coach - HarleyDog - 01-19-2021
SOunds like a good match. Bring him in and put him to work.
RE: Bengals to interview former Cowboys RB coach - Nate (formerly eliminate08) - 01-19-2021
Would be a nice addition and Brown is familiar with Pollack.
We also have talented backs for Brown to work with. I think it would be a good fit.
