He was replaced by Dwayne Gratz, it wasn't just dumb. It was suicidal.

Quote:It is rather telling that this team fits players to their scheme as opposed to teams that work to fit their scheme around their players' talents. This isn't necessarily a problems, but most football experts will tell you the latter method is preferred. Here's another example as explained by Malik...

Now, when I get tired I can’t resort to the things I knew. I have to do the things they taught me here. It’s getting there. Game by game, it’s getting better.<em>”</em>
Quote:KyJaggy doesn't care about his 10 yard split, it's all about that 3-cone drillWhen it comes to DE that's pretty much true. 10 yard split matters, but it's the least of the ones that do.

3 cone > broad and vertical jumps > shuttles > 10 yard split. 40 and bench press have virtually zero correlation to success.

Quote:broad and vertical jump is more important than the 10 yard split for a DE? Lol
Quote:Yes but broad jump and vertical are not functional movements that a pass rusher uses. Whereas vertical leap for a basketball player or WR is a lot more of a functional movement and therefore more indicative or useful. Just my opinion.
Frankly I don't care how high fowler can jump. How quickly does he get off the snap is much more important.

Quote:I'd argue that for a LEO, the 10-yard split is the most telling because it's about how fast he can close in a short space which is of primary importance for pass rushing. The 3-cone and shuttles are more of run stuffing ability stats, and the jumps are more about power.We can try to theorize how working out in underwear in a completely isolated and inapplicable environment should translate all we want, but all you have to do (and plenty of other people have) is look at the guys who own the league in sacks/TFL/pressures. The ones that dominate there also dominate in the 3 cone and jumps almost always. The guys who have good splits and not much else (a la Fowler) can excel, but are much fewer and farther between.

Quote:What?
Quote:The truth is simply that defensive ends who have great 3 cone and jump scores do better than the ones who only excel in the dash/splits in the vast majority of cases.
Quote:The 3-cone and shuttles are agility drills primary testing sideline quickness which is key for stuffing the run in the NFL.
