A guide to Andy Reid. Pretty good read...

Having said all that, here's what the philosophy boil down to. Throwing is the answer to your problems. I guarantee you'll hear Andy say this in the next year, "keep firing." That's his philosophy. If the pass is not working, you don't give up... you keep firing.

You pass early to get a lead so you can run later to keep it. If you don't get a lead or you fall behind... you keep firing.

And while this may sound bad, let's not forget the facts. Andy's offenses have scored a lot of points. They were 8th in ppg even last year (2011). They were 3rd in 2010. 5th in 2009. 6th in 2008 and so on. Situationally, you will question whether his philosophy makes sense. I certainly do... But when you step back and look at the big picture, they score points.

If he did two things right it was offensive line and the incredibly, ridiculous AMAZING team friendly contract he got Charles to ink.

Yep. And with Castillo the line should really be able to take a step up. He's one of the most underrated coaches out there since the defensive coordinator debacle.

I'll hang around for a bit more. Good chatting with Chiefs fans.

If anyone has any questions about Reid, feel free to ask. I'm really happy for him and that he landed in a place where he got everything he wanted. This was a tough last calender year for him. Losing his son being obviously the worst of it.

Yeah thats for sure.

I just really wanna get Albert and Bowe re signed.

You can fill some holes in the draft, but I actually like filling holes better with free agency.

You have to combine BPA with position of need in the draft, which is something I don't think Scott ever got down.

Reverse mojo won't work. Our coach is better than yours. Good thing you got the Forehead.

[Hootie]

our #1 priority should be getting Bowe signed long term without using the tag...and then tagging Albert if necessary.

He averages a 55/45 pass/run split over his career. This idea that he doesn't run the ball enough is bogus.

Stick around dude. Can never have too many football guys on the board.


And this is a great board for football talk.

[Gravedigger]

WOW, he comes with Kung Fu grip, a super secret walrus layer, and 3 designer mustaches. COOL!!!!

BradBigglestein is already my vote for n00b of the year.

There is a certain effect of running the ball regardless of yards gain that leads to a more productive offense ... less QB hits,more ToP etc.

throwing the ball even though you need to burn clock etc

Nobody said anything about YPC. Running the ball "enough" is all about attempts.

His splits are about 45% run over the length of his career.

That's PLENTY.

not imo

at it's also about knowing WHEN to run it.


i've already said i like the hire but you are going to have Chiefs fans screaming 'just run the ball!!!' several times throughout Reid's tenure.

[RunKC]

Here's what to expect:

Good QB play, an offense scoring a lot of points and a defense that gets pressure on the QB.

WTF else could we want? This is going to be AWESOME

In your opinion? It's a statistical fact.


He has ran the ball 45% of snaps in his career. And to that effect, he hasnt' been the primary playcaller.
