BroadwayRay Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Morton is an offensive assistant with the Raiders after floating off into oblivion for a year. Bates' wikipedia says nothing about him being a coach in the NFL. He'll probably go into hiding for at least a year, also. Just like how Chan Gailey became a missing person after his two-year sting with the Jets. Quite a trend, eh? Bowles sure knew how to pick em. He made the Jets into the place where dysfunctional OCs went to die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge4Tide Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Bates at least had Sam playing well at times toward the end of the year. He didn't just totally mess Sam up and seemed to do a good job getting him through his rookie season in a positive manner. So, I give him credit for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Somewhere that his team wont have worry about him calling; dive right, dive left, penalty, pass on 3rd and long. Yes. He was so bad he even called penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problems with Bates were more related to playcalling and predictability than anything in particular he did wrong with developing Darnold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was doing well as the QB coach, and didn't want the pressure of being the OC after his previous experience in the league. He was eventually convinced to take the job, and then it went poorly because he wasn't suited to the job. He is a good QB coach but is over matched as the play caller at OC. Nice job Bowles, you moron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HelenOfTroy Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 * Homer Alert* Sam’s development and improvement had more to do with Sam, and his natural gifts and progression than Bates. I’m unapologetic about that opinion. I saw what he did with poor coaching in college, his second year he lost his weapons and 3 starting O-Linemen. He tried to do too much trying to compensate for both weaknesses. The truth was there to see when Sam left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themeangreenkillingmachine Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 He's probably climbing a mountain somewhere. What gives the impression that he was a good QB coach. He coached up Bryce petty and Christian Hackenberg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He began the season as the starter, was replaced after a few games for ineffectiveness by Mettenberger, another NFL vet. When Mettenberger got hurt, they gave the ball to an unknown rookie rather than giving it back to to Hackenberg. So he's third string in the AAF.

Since the Redskins currently don't have a Quarterback, that should go well for him. If that doesn't work out for him, he could always just roam the Appalachian Trail until something opens up.

Tampa will stay down, Arians will retire, Bowles will be fired when a new HC is hired in Tampa, and Bowles will either retire also or if the NFL orders another team to hire him, he might stick around.

He made the Jets into the place where dysfunctional OCs went to die. To be fair, Chan Gailey was retired when the Jets hired him and cruised back into retirement. There is a big difference between a 67 year old guy that has already had a couple of stints as HC and a guy in his 40's who already took a year off to walk the Appalachian Trail. Gailey was already coaching a couple of years before Bates was born. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJoTownsell1 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I didn't love him as an OC, but Darnold definitely improved by the end of the year. If Bates was clueless (see Jeff Fisher's staff's handling of Goff as a rookie), we wouldn't have seen that improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
