I’m curious as to how much improvement you expect to see to justify this god worshipping on here. It is exciting to me to see the change of this coaching position, obviously change was long overdue. I would think that most coaches would prefer a physically dominant guy when it comes to a shoving match, you’re ahead of the game before the X’s and O’s. Does anyone know if the Head Coach or the Offensive Coordinator will have any input on line philosophy? Who dictates who plays? I’m more of a show me things first kinda guy vs. a hype a messiah before any proven results are seen. I’m sure that someone will overreact and say that this makes me not a fan, that’s fine. I am curious about how each of you will judge how well this new coach does. Keep in mind that the OLine roster got a lot better from last year. Some players will also look a tad better just by having a stud playing next to him. I really believe that the line should collapse a lot less this year just by adding the 2 hosses that they did. With these seemingly automatic improvements, what results will you judge Pollack on? Outside of injuries, the line should automatically be a good bit better.
Hey man, i getcha. We haven't seen Pollack coach these guys yet, you are right, the additions of Glenn and Price
alone make this O-line way better from the likes of PA's guys Og and Bodine. I want to see how Pollack coaches
up the likes of Westerman, Redmond, Fisher, Og (who i have no hope for) and the rest of the guys that have yet
to do much in the NFL.
To judge a coach we have to see how he does with the worst players. If he can coach up one or two of these
players into something decent we will know we have a good coach. Still, Pollack coached up a couple guys in
Dallas that were not very good before he got ahold of them. He has a good track record.
PA on the other hand needed polished players for success.
