How long was Schotty, Drew Breese QB coach? And did Breese become better when he went to the Saints? Just Asking I think Schotty has to go, his play calling is not helping a rookie QB, no screen passes, no short slant routes, no comeback passes to the WR, and does not throw on first down to set up the run. He gets too cute with his weird plays that fool no one.
how they dont promote callahan is beyond me. this would be like having sutton as dcoord and rex as line coach
Mangini likes Dabol too much. He brought in Dabol for the same reason Rex brought in Cavanaugh, to replace Schottenheimer when he left.
Not really his fault we missed out on three FG attempts and that he has been dealing with 4 different QBs in his 4 yrs. Pennington, KC/CP, Favre, Sanchez. He's decent. One of the better OC in the NFL. He'll have jobs lined up for him if we let him go. We just hate losing, thats all.
he probably won't unless Rex understand that this idiot doesn't share the same vision. The idea is for the run game to set up high percentage throws for Sanchez to complete, move the chains and get into the red zone. The plus is that Sanchez can make plays with his feet and throws a pretty deep ball. So when it calls for it, the big play is able to happen. I just never see many high percentage throws. And the fact that all I hear during the game is "the Falcons secondary is doing a great job covering the Jets receivers today" when they are ranked 30th and are very injured is embarrassing. I saw almost no slant routes yesterday. I saw one that went for 14 yards. Slants routes were the reason why Sanchez was winning rookie of the week awards in September. Schotty just doesn't have the right gameplan. If he stays for the duration of Sanchez's career, the Jets are sunk, Ryan is gone, and then Schotty will finally be in the college ranks ruining prospects.
Way too much hate for Brian. I saw the same when Heimerdinger was the OC. Now everyone seems to be sucking up to him. Its not just the coaches, its also what they have to deal with. Last yr we had a relatively strong offense with Favre. This yr, we added Edwards. With a rookie QB, we have been below par offense. It makes sense. Schotty is not the one turning over the ball. He's not the one that has put Sanchez in to obvious passing situations that has lead to several ints. Its just not fair to an OC who has to deal with a rookie QB's growing pain. We need him more than he needs us. We want the offense to be the same for Sanchez for atleast another yr. Maybe once Sanchez improves, Schotty will get a better grip on the offense. He's been decent in New York. Give him some stability at the most important position in the game. All great dynasties have been lead by pro bowl, if not hall of fame QBs. Nothing secret about it.
^ The offense was strong last year until Favre's bicep was torn, and Schotty still had him throw in the Seattle snow 35 times. You're telling me that shouldn't have cost him his job? Everyone from the Mangini era should have been axed from that game alone. HOF QBs lead dynasties. But they get to the HOF by being a clutch leader and having a strong team around them. Heimerdinger didn't fit the personnel. Chad's arm couldn't do what was asked, and poor Mike went through 6 QBs that year.
The Seattle game was pretty bad, I know. But u can't evaluate an OC (especially a young OC) based on his two or three worse games. He has learned a lot this yr. His play calling has been very good overall. Maybe some iffy calls, but you're going to see that in every team. You saw it with the so called 'future hall of fame' HC in NE. Jason Garrette in Dallas was considered to be the next HC of the Cowboys before the season started. Now all of a sudden people want to run him out of the town. Thats just how it is. If you don't perform, people will eat you alive, regardless of what you have to work with. Schotty is an exciting OC. I don't want a boring casual OC. Schotty will be just fine here and I hope Im not wrong, cuz he aint going anywhere for a yr or two at least. He has the number one rushing attack in the league, what else can he do? Improve the pass? Sure, but with a rookie QB, you are not going to have a top 16 passing offense. Maybe next yr we'll have a top 16 passing attack along with a top 5 rushing attack, but who knows.
^ I evaluate him on "time and place" playcalling and its not very good. He hates high percentage throws and treats sanchez like a 5 year veteran. Garrett has had a tough year this year, but he's been good in previous years. Schotty has never been good with anything. He's a over glorified QB coach living with a lie on his resume. Cam Cameron groomed Brees and Rivers, not him. Exciting would be great if thats what Rex wanted. Rex wants boring and safe. Now Sanchez doesn't make anything boring and safe, but Schotty doesn't help. That's why the color coded system was put into place. That system isn't installed if Schotty is doing his job correctly.
Thing is, he is learning and is getting better every yr. His first yr was a surprise. Second yr was reality. Third year was decent, but with a hand of questionable decisions. He's had few questionable decisions than last yr in his 4th yr, which is a good sign. I don't want him gone myself, but my opinion doesn't matter. As much as I've observed his play calling this yr, he has improved even over the course of the season. Like I said, every coach will have their bad games/playcalls.
If Schotty's such a great coordinator then he shouldn't be putting Sanchez in positions where he can't succeed. Until Rex took over, a lot of the offense, Sanchez was throwing way too many picks (except for last game). Since Sanchez isn't progressing in his reads, I'm blaming Schotty. It's not like Sanchez isn't gifted or an idiot like Jarmacus Russell. I really feel Schotty doesn't want to work with a rookie QB and does things totally his way so he can try to land a job elsewhere. I really even question his dedication to this team. I think he will leave to find his "head coaching job" somewhere and unless some teams in desperate need, then I doubt he gets any offers.
You asked if we thought he'd be back, not if we wanted him back. I think he'll be back though I'm not sure I want him back. But how much of a say do I have?
