Another interesting tidbit on Bill Stewart, the guy who'd make desbro WANT TO PLAY. He was, at one time, an assistant coach for the Montreal Alouettes.

Paul Rhoads (the Iowa State coach from the other fiery locker room speech linked above) head coaching record: 29-46.
Odd, you would think these alpha male coaches would do better.
Guess talent and execution matters just a tad bit more than being an alpha male coach and giving fiery locker room speeches.

Another interesting tidbit about Stewart: he went to 2 different reporters asking for them to find dirt on Dana Holgorson, the coach that would eventually replace him at WVU. Man of principle, that Bill Stewart.

Interesting article. I think it definitely gives a bit more credence to all of the things Despbro was saying. I think most of us always felt that "some" aspects of what he was trying to get across with his "nerds" commentary to be true, perhaps it could have been more eloquently positioned, a bit more polished if you will
If you took Desbro's nerd bullshit and made it eloquent and expressive, then it wouldn't be desbro's thoughts or point anymore. Dude literally means nerds.

Also, there has never been a coaching change in the history of the NFL where players didn't talk about culture change. Doesn't mean nerds.

Or soothing voice reverberations gently bouncing off the walls while addressing the team from the back of the room?

the first cue to anyone outside of Halas Hall that something was fucked up was the 'holding hands shower picture'. Who the fuck thought that was a good idea?
If you go back in time and listen to some of the interviews specifically defensive guys you can see they weren't buying in, in year one. So what Kyle is saying sounds good to me.

That revisionist history posting by Desperbro keeps going doesn't it HHM?..lol.... He keeps it up, he is going to get called out again....
In regards to the article, Lovie was/is not a fire and brimstone coach, and players LOVED him and would run through walls for him. Some people just don't get that BOTH types of personalities can be\have been successful....

Agree. There are many different styles that can be effective. While Lovie wasn't a screamer, get in your face coach, he also had rules and didn't put up with a lot of shit. When asked P. Mannelly (and another player, can't remember who) if Love would have allowed Briggs to open a restaurant when he did or Brandon to do TV in NYC they both immediately said "no". Mannely also said that when there was an issue you were asked to see Lovie in his office and he was very clear, stern but also fair.
I think one of the main keys to coaching, past the x's and o's, is consistency. John Madden let his players "express themselves" but he also had rules (be on time) that you didn't cross. While Tom Couphlin is a complete disciplinarian with a bunch of rules; though he has lightened up. Both won Super Bowls with different styles. But they were always consistent with the players.

Define early? When the team started to implode is not considered early. "calling it" as it is happening is not really "calling it", it's more of a play by play

So Despbro, if Cutler is still with the team at the start of the season do you think his 3rd Head Coach with the Bears will be the lucky one to actually get him to minimize turnovers?

I think he'll finally have a competent coaching staff that have been consistent fixtures in the NFL over a dude who was out of the league for nearly a decade.
