Ringer Article: Will Bill Belichick’s Big Coaching Gamble Backfire?

[Ring 6]

Again, I’m tearing down the patriots and their players/coaches by predicting they’ll win 10 games and dare say I think a coach or two might be better than BB right now? I am not sure how this is negativity.

You seem to want a fantasy world where everything is perfect. I am simply not like that. Not all fans think equally or fan equally so to speak. Surprised you havent learned that

You have been trashing the team ever since you arrived.
It is what it is. Are you now trying to tell me what kind of posting should attract me to or away from wanting to visit the board?

You have been trashing the team ever since you arrived.

Your definition of trashing is probably different than most. Saying they were going to win 10 games doesnt seem like trashing.

What are you talking about? I simply said there are more than 1 type of fan on this earth. You essentially telling me im not one is pretty funny. You live in your own world

I can't believe Bill is so arrogant that he hired Matt Patricia for offense and didn't try to get Sean McVay. Oh well.

Would you rather have Adam gase or Patricia running the offense?

I am talking about the totality of your posting but one prediction.

When did I tell you that you “aren’t one”? Now you are just keeping this going to post silliness. Give it up.

Right, my totality of opinions on the team that add up to the team winning 10 games...Cant be too negative

"because your come to a patriot fan site specifically to be negative toward the patriots, tear down the players and coaches and create a negative time and feeling to the board."

If the above isnt implying that I am not a fan, but just an outsider who joined just to post negativity on a team forum for fun, than IDK what this is

 

[lancerman]

I'd rather have Sean McVay or Kyle Shanahan. If Bill was a real genius he would have found a way to get them. Just like he was foolish to not pick up Mahomes as a replacement for Brady.

 

[Wozzy]

What I'm slightly worried about is they have gone all in on this scheme. They don't have the depth or full back to go power front. So the zone blocking scheme better come together or they may not be able to run their more traditional offense

I don't think they've gone all in on a new scheme, and we won't see much zone blocking unless they start practicing it better.

They can run a similar scheme from last year with new verbiage and be just fine, they were fine in the preseason. The offense should look like those 2010-2012 offenses with Hernandez.

As you say negative fans are fans too

There really isn’t any personnell difference require to run a higher frequency of either man or zone run blocking. They will run both, always have, always will, it’s just how the mix plays out and that will be determined by what is working.

 

[WhatJustHappened]

NOONE is winning more than Bill with this crew.
This is obviously my opinion.
Laugh/ cry, IDGAS.

A fullback is usually helpful when going power run scheme.

Hopefully with less murdering

No Thanks!

 

[Froob]

Not a fan of turning over the offense to Patricia, but, I think the issue is the OL more than anything else. They need a dedicated OL coach whether that's Patricia or somebody else. I don't see how Patricia can both call the plays and coach the OL.

 

[TheRainMaker]

Yes, it will backfire.

Imagine teaching people about something you don't have any experience with?

Your premise is that BB doesn't have any offensive experience...is that what I'm hearing?

No, I was initially referring to Patricia and Judge trying to teach concepts of Shanahan's offense. However, the same can be said about Bill as well. Guys like McVay, LaFleur and McDaniel have a better grasp because they were taught by the guy who runs it.

Few teams use them, if you spread the field there is 1 less man to block.

The Pats have used zone blocking schemes in the past. Are you saying they can't do that again?
