[QUOTE="Rodney Kent, post: 27696, member: 923"] Reply to Essobee: I am not stating that we should change our entire system to suit one player. I really didn't care if Vad was the quarterback or not. I told my son that I wished PJ would put in some of the other QBs when Vad was not performing effectively. So, you are way off base to think I am wanting a coach to change an offense or defense for one player. My insistence is that we should not always play the same offense or the same defense if it is not working. The smart coach changes his offense and defense to match the talents of his material. The coach who continues to work with the same system and does not adapt to his total material is not going to be as efficient as the coach who changes his system to better fit the talents of his players. The B-Backs we have used lately are not as strong, nor effective as the B-Backs we had for the first few years. Actually, the most effective B-Back I saw consistently this year was Laskey. This is just another example in conjunction with the QB. Sims appeared to have the speed to break runs, but not the strength to get through the initial tackles, so his talent should have been used in a different manner. I will now go to the defense. We say that we did not have the type of beasts we needed on the defensive line. Fine, use more defensive linemen on the line to make up for the deficiency in the strength of a few. If the rushers cannot get to the quarterback for sacks, then play the receivers closer. Give them more room to get behind the receiver, but keep them from completing the short ones. This will also allow the rushers more time to get to the quarterback. Even if a receiver gets behind the defensive back and scores, at least the opposition has scored in a short amount of time rather than eating up the clock on long drives and then expecting our offense to score on limited time. I am saying that you cannot play the same offense and defense each year, you must adjust your systems to the talent on hand. If all the opponents Qb has to do is throw a quick short pass for a first down and also eat up the clock, the rushers will never get to him. Seal off the short passes so the QB has to take longer to find the open receivers further down the field. This gives the rush a better chance of getting to the QB. Also, long passes are not as accurate as the short passes that eat up the clock on 3rd and long. If I have a great rusher who can't block well, I will not sit him on the bench and make him useless. If I have a great receiver who cannot block, I will not sit him on the bench and make him useless. All of these examples may not be deficiencies on our team, but are used to back up the view that each year brings a different set of athletes with different talents. Yes, the team can definitely be modified to use those talents more effectively than trying to force a player without a given talent to try and make him fit the mold. [/QUOTE]
