One of the keys to the art of building a winner is finding the right personnel to fit your system. Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett’s offensive philosophy stems from his days as a backup quarterback to Hall of Famer Troy Aikman. In the glory days of the 90s dynasty, Aikman had a massive offensive line that featured tackles Mark Tuinei and Erik Williams, guards Nate Newton and Kevin Gogan, and center Mark Stepnoski that gave Aikman enough time to get the football to his outlets. What the maulers did best was pave the way for the great Emmitt Smith – a physical all-around back the offense centralized their game plans around.
On the boundary, Michael Irvin (6-2, 207 lbs.) and Alvin Harper (6-3, 210 lbs.) were two physical receivers Aikman connected

The late Don Coryell was the architect and innovator behind the system that Ernie Zampese learned under Coryell as an assistant with the Chargers. Norv Turner grasped the system as a receivers coach with the Rams when Zampese was the OC from the mid-80s to early-90s. Turner was hired by the Cowboys in ’91 to coordinate the offense and had an impact on Aikman’s development into one the best timing passers in guiding the Cowboys to back-to-back super bowl runs in ’92 and …show more content…
Now Garrett, like Turner and Zampese had to work with, has the tools in place for the offense to be a juggernaut. Starting with the receivers, Garrett has a beast in Dez Bryant (6-2, 225 lbs.) able to dominate with the same prowess Irvin took to the gridiron, and Terrance Williams (6-2, 208 lbs.) opposite of Bryant with some similarities as Harper (can get up and get the ball). Notice the comparison in size that Irvin and Harper had? Insert Brice Butler (6-3, 215 lbs.) and the Cowboys have the ideal receivers wanted in the system – prototypical sized route runners able to get downfield.
Lots of eyes will be on Butler, who has the size and speed to potentially take over for Williams – the current Z receiver on the roster. Williams should put up better numbers than Mohamad Sanu – the Bengals’ former number two receiver who signed a five-year, $32 million deal with the Falcons. If Sanu’s 33 catches, and near 400 yards receiving last season set the table for the deal he signed this offseason – Williams should be seeking something
He has size, speed, and hands of an elite receiver. During his time at Ohio State he proved to be a reliable target in crunch time situations. His biggest strengths are his incredible speed off of the line of scrimmage, rate of acceleration, ability to catch the ball in traffic, and out-jump opposing defensive backs.
Russ Jackson quickly became the dominant quarterback in 1960’s for the Ottawa Roughriders, taking the job of quarterback from the more experienced Ron Lancaster. Russ Jackson was very honored in his CFL career. He won the CFL’s Most Outstanding Player award an outstanding three times (1963, 1966, and 1969 seasons). Jackson was also awarded with the CFL’s Most Outstanding Canadian Award (1959, 1963, 1966, 1969 seasons), four times. A CFL All-Star quarterback (1966, 1968, 1969 seasons), and a six-time Eastern Conference All-Star quarterback (1962, 1963, 1966, 1967, 1968,1969).
I agree with Al Davis because he, is still are owner for the Raiders Because Al Davis has been our owner for 67 years . I don't believe whats the author is talking about with Al Davis. It's because what the author saying about Al Davis pushing the Raiders how to win games . I learn from the arthur is listen to the coach and practice the plays over and over again and he said that how you work with you eachother .
I've spoken before on the spark Alvin Kamara brings to an offense, and I really was hoping for him to fall to us a year ago, but things happen, and luckily for us, Ronald Jones fell to us instead this year. His home run ability will be a very nice weapon that our offense has missed for the last few years.
Jovon Durante had four catches for 52 yards. Gary Jennings caught five passes for 46 yards.
Back in May of 2014, Dez called him self one of the best receivers in the NFL, and he is ready to get paid like one. Everyone had something to say about that at the time as well. Calling him "cocky" and "arrogant" He answered his haters by catching 88 balls for 1320 yards and 16 touchdowns this last season. He not only lead the NFL with receiving touchdowns last year. but his remarkable 56 touchdowns in the last five season is the best and leads all the receivers currently in the league. Dez Bryant is arguably the best wide receiver in the league. Although only ignorant people would argue with that statement. Probably the same ignorant people that placed him at number 15 in the leagues "Top 100". Anyways besides the point. Bryant has played his heart out he doesn't just bring record breaking numbers, he brings a rare talent and an undeniable passion to the Cowboys team. He is looked up to on both sides of the ball. Coaches, teammates and fans alike would be devastated to see Dez

Of the 128 head coaches in FBS, Smith joins a thin list that are African American.

Joe Ehrmann describes how he has developed his philosophy of coaching by relating the story of his life in his youth, high school and in college describing two different types of coaches he had played for. The first are coaches who were impersonal, authoritarian, and sometimes abusive which he calls transactional coaches; this is in contrast to the humane coaches he calls transformative coaches. Coaches must face this responsibility because we all remember our coaches. “This is the awesome power and responsibility of coaching: You give your players memories, for better or for worse that stay with them until the day they die” (Ehrmann, 2011 p 46-47). Joe Erhmann goes on to ask, “What is the moral and ethical composition of their program?
The corners have been getting burned ever since Tim Jennings lost his breakout potential and ultimately Charles Tillman continually injuring himself. Head coach John Fox was the former Broncos head coach and has brought multiple broncos with him to the Windy City. Now don’t be fooled, they aren’t the Chicago Broncos similar to Chip Kelly and the Philadelphia Ducks. This case is how former Broncos who joined Fox in Chicago wanted to accomplish the same results. General Manager Ryan Pace is by far a massive upgrade to Phil Emery who basically drafted players who looked good but were not good as in Brandon Hardin, Shea McClellin, Jon Bostic etc. Pace has drafted several caliber star players like Eddie Goldman and Adrian Amos. But this year, Pace failed to address the secondary often going for other players that most definitely are not part of the secondary. Then again, this is still a young team trying to rebuild into a champion which has not been seen since 1985 and have not been to the Super Bowl since 2006. Back then, the secondary was disciplined enough to win and it proved to be good until the rainy night in South
He learned to focus his efforts at this particular moment, and not to waste any time that was not necessary. After coaching at West Point, Lombardi moved on to be the offensive coordinator for the New York Giants. There, was Lombardi’s greatest success. Brought in as a rookie to the NFL, Lombardi learned the ropes of the pro game. After being rejected early on by the veterans, he was finally accepted and tinkered with his coaching style to fit the pro game.
As with most sports teams, the Titans have an autocratic leadership style. Coach Boone is the one and only person who makes the decisions, he is the main man in charge. The style is productive, and the team wins games. Although he has assistant coaches, such as Bill Yoast who is the defensive coordinator, all the decisions must go through Coach Boone first. The democratic leadership style is not applicable on a football team because that’s why teams have coaches. The team does not make group decisions. Coach Boone also uses Job Enlargement in ‘Remember the
As the movie progressed and Coach Boone’s vision came together, Coach Yoast slowly but surely began to show more support. Coach Boone’s consistent preaching, that he did not view the team as black and white players, but instead, simply as football players who must form cohesion and take actions not for self, but for team, eventually rubbed off on Coach Yoast. This is where the culture in the coaching staff began to form. Trust also began to build and the three coaches, now more cohesive themselves were able to accomplish much more in order to coach their players much more constructively. By the time the Titans had made it to the championship, all three coaches had put their differences aside, bought in to the vision and culture, and were able to coach their players to victory.
He loved the preparation it took for him to run his organization. He created a machine like organization but then started to develop it as he goes on in his time coaching the 49ers. His book is all about leadership and how he created a standard of performance for employees to resemble and to follow. If you’re looking at the machine metaphor you don’t see a lot of leadership other than that of Walsh. He created a great machine with his leadership and dedication to the
Alabama’s football program has experienced major success in multiple eras, most notably in the years 1958-1982 and again from 2007-present day. The first of these two dynasties was brought on with the hiring of Paul “Bear” Bryant who went on to lead the program to six national championships and 13 Southeastern Conference championships. A current dynasty also exists in Tuscaloosa, AL, following the introduction of Nick Saban as Alabama’s head football coach in 2007. Nick Saban brought in a winning dynamic to a program in desperate need of a culture change and has transformed the organizational structure of Alabama football forever. Saban’s approach to
