Demanding, Detailed, Accountable Klint Kubiak is winning over coaches and players alike

I was just saying he demonstrates qualities of a sought after coach. But even sought after coaches better keep the shelves full (@ QB) or they’ll find themselves like Belichick. It’s the players that make plays.

But to the point, we’re entering the “Sean or Drew” debate which is an enigma as to where one ends and the other begins.
Seans scheme was dominant for years and fun to watch. It scored 50 burgers all the time.. And when they were on, no one could stop them. Even the great TB through his hands up in primetime. And we can say for a fact it wasn’t Drew Bress’s scheme, It was more than just exposing the weak link in a defense, it was about rhythm, timing, and constant deception.

Then there’s Drew, the only guy that could run the system perfectly. We never even resembled the Drew Brees led teams under the other QBs, The other QBs made the system look clunky and disjointed and eventually overly simple where the run game became non existent.

Obviously we still couldn’t be running his system anymore considering he’s in Denver as well as his OC. So we did the best that we could and hired a staff that can implement the most popular system in the NFL. And they did just that, they hired all of the coaches to implement it, OC, Oline, Wr, Rb, Te. So we definitely took a step forward overall. But the days of prime time 50 burgers are in the rear view mirror. And it’ll be interesting to see if Bo Nix can be the guy in Denver for Sean. Selfishly I hope not and he ends along with Drew Brees, as the NFLs greatest Head Coach / QB combo to ever do it.
Something that's lost in here is it took Drew years to master that offense and he looked the exact same way at times as you described the other QBs made the system look but I will say that our run game became non existent because we didn't have a complimentary back for Kamara. We went from MI to Murray and then we let Murray leave and we had Tony Jones.

The system would still work if Pete knew how to actually build around the players the way that Sean did. We could see the evolution of our offense as Drew evolved. When age began to kick in, you can see another shift in the offense. When Teddy came in, it felt similar to what Drew did but CSP added intermediate and deep wrinkles. When Taysom came in, we saw zone read elements. When Jameis started, we didn't know what was going on (LOL), until around the 5th game and I realized we were using play-action and screens a lot more and was like "dangit, I think we are going back to the Prime Brees style offense;" then injuries. Siemian had to ride with the punches and I still feel sorry for Book til this day..lol.

I say all that to say this; CSP knew what players excelled in. If we went into 2022 running the same offense that was built in 2021, our team would have looked much different. If they didn't do an honest evaluation of Carr and figured he was just plug and play, that was malpractice because there was no way you look at film and could think that. We didn't need the media to come out halfway through the season to talk about what Carr needed, because it was all there. That's a failure on coaching and why CSP is one of the best.

You can be a great offensive mind but horrible at calling plays.

I put Sneaky Pete on the Mike Shula level of coordinator.

the job CSP did his last year here was COTY worthy.....
I was screaming this from the mountain tops.

For one of those very few times in my life I really thought before the season started we were going to contend in 2009......and, for a change, I was right.....still it took a lot of luck, the way the ball bounces, turnovers, etc.....so I get the destiny slant....

Two friends I grew up with in NOLA thought i was nuts when I told them the Saints had a SB level team before the season started.....not so much after the season ended.....
Our 2009 season is why I thought we (Auburn) were going to win the BCS in 2013. :cry:
