Did Bowles learn anything from Pederson?


Jetster

Recommended Posts

How can any coach come away from that Super Bowl & not learn you can't beat Belichick & Brady coaching like a pussy? Is there any coach in the league more timid than Bowles on 4th & short? I mean how many times did we punt near midfield with time on the clock. It's like he's never seen pass interference.

Whether its Kirk Cousins or Mayfield or Rosen, this coaching staff has got to start thinking about aggressive offense. Yea, I get it if your D is balling, the opposing team has a weak offense themselves but that's not what this guy does. He turtles at every opportunity to show a little faith in his team. I keep waiting for this guy to learn something or at least show me SOMETHING he's gleaned from 3 full years as a head coach. 

I'm still waiting. I can't think of 1 coaching decision he made last year that turned a game. Hell, his conservative nature almost lost the Jags & talk about playing it closed to the vest vs the Chargers on O. Broncos? OMG, 1st time I've seen a Jet team raise the white flag since Tim Brown took Vance Joseph to the woodshed.

This is a man that kicks field goals down three scores in what are basically exhibition games. He's not going to learn anything. My only hope is that the 2018 season passes quickly so they can sh*tcan this clown

He should’ve already been fired. He coaches with his tail between his legs, is horrible with game day management, he can’t control the locker room and his defense sucks year in and year out.

This is what happened to Todd Bowles.

The team won 10 games and looked close to being playoff ready.

The next year they sucked but they had a Qb and OC who would actually try and make comebacks by taking chances, this is why fitz had games where he tossed that 3, 4, 5th int.  both he and gailey were not folding the tent but taking chances  (Yes this was ill fated most to the time.)

The team got embarrassed and lost badly some games, this stuck with Bubba Bowles, so this past year he was more than happy to lose by 7 points than to try and win but get blown out.

And it worked perfectly for him, the team waddled to 5 wins and he was hailed as a great coach for winning 5 when the jets were suppose to win 3.

Get ready for more of this, this coming year.

He learned what he already knew: run the ball + ball-control type high percentage passes to move the chains, eat up clock, and keep our opponents' high scoring offenses off the field.

Remember, we get the same credit in the win column for winning 13-10 instead of 34-24.

That scenario might work if we had a defense that didn't outright suck and if the NFL rules were not tailor made for down the field offense.

He operates the team like we have the 85 bears defense.  We don't.

Also all of what you said goes out the window when you get down by 10 in the second half.  VERY few teams have actually been able to pull that off in modern day football.

I said it after the super bowl. Bowles would have been losing and had the team quit at the end of the 1st half like he did last season. Guy has shown ZERO growth as a coach on every level and can't get his Defense "his specialty" to perform. 

Bowles should have been fired, and still should be IMO.

What he should have learned is that everyone will blow you if the wind moves in that direction and that can happen sooner rather than later in this league. It’s not a complicated sport, the guy’s coached a team that did top of the league things as a rookie HC, and memories are often really short and selective.

Fix: like we have the '85 Bears defense and the '75 Bears offense.

Guys his QBs have been Ryan Fitzpatrick, Geno Smith, Bryce Petty and Christian Hackenberg.

He is aggressive by nature, dude blitzes non stop so he isn't afraid of taking chances.

How about they stop taking chances with a crappy roster and then we see what they do on offense.

Bowles thinks punting the ball down 2 scores with 7 minutes left from midfield on 4th and 2 back to an offense with Roethlisberger, LeV, and AntBrown makes sense.

Anything he learns would be like advancing from kindergarten to 1st grade.

Similar to Rex. Bunch of vets & weak schedule...GENIUS! It's amazing to me how Todd & Rex can't coach a damn lick when they are forced to TEACH, and don't have teams laden with all stars. I could never get the stench of that Buffalo loss out of my nose. From playing Ridley, to the team not being up to kick the doors down to get into the playoffs vs a team that had spent the week digging out of blizzard, all of their bags packed for the offseason, and we go up there & lay a damn egg. We'll see what happens, if Cousins comes & they beef up the offense, Bates might just be able to hide the warts of Bowles & Rogers. We go rookie QB at 6, pick up a jag vet, it's gonna be a loooong season.

The Eagles played the Giants, 52 third stringers on the Redskins, and a Cowboys team with a hobbled offense a combined 6 times. 

FO has their 2017 schedule as the 8th easiest:

But they beat the all comers & won the Super Bowl, what's your point?

They kicked the sh*t out of a good Vikings team too.

Ummm this 1000X

Does anyone even recall when Bowles was aggressive at the half, only to see McCown throw a back breaking pick!!

And show me an super aggressive HC with Fitz under center and I will show you a stupid unemployed HC!

Being aggressive on defense means ZERO as far as being aggressive on offense.  Rex was the same, rexs dad was the same.  These D coaches have this faulty thought that the offense is just to not screw up so their D can win the game.  Bowles defense sucks as well that is why we win 5 games.  He also blitzes because we draft no pass rushers and the DLineman we hope to apply pressure are lazy or run stoppers.

Right on and to add to that, these coaches always feel that if they have a stellar D that the Offense shouldn't take any chances when that is completely illogical. If your D is so great that it can limit the other team's scoring, you shouldn't be afraid to take MORE chances on Offense because your D should be able to pick up the slack if it ends up not working out.

Never thought I’d want herm back. Lol. 

Somehow Herm actually had success here. I'm pretty sure our last division title was under Herm and we won playoff games under the guy (and should've beaten the Steelers in the Doug Brien game).

This is why I don't want Cousins as much as it pains me. He will do just enough to bail out Bowles. Again. "8 wins! Think of the improvement! Playoffs in '19!"

Give me a rookie QB. Get him some playing experience. Let him stink up the joint and learn this year. New HC next year.

You are all crazy, Todd's way is the best and only way

Bowles, throughout his career, has been around some of the best coaches in the history of the NFL and appears to have learned absolutely ******* nothing, but he’s gonna learn something from watching Doug Pederson on TV for three hours?

Contemporary coaches, lol. Your talking about historic coaches that have zero relevance to today's NFL, lol.

Exactly, out of one side of their mouth fans are calling Mac the worst GM for not getting a QB - then the other side calling Bowles scared for not being agressive with said QB.

You do realize that Bowles declared Fitz the starter before he was even signed? Bowles WANTED Fitzpatrick.
