You can’t win over time on emotion, it has to be due to preparation, execution and respect.

Motivation can’t be a selling point imo.  If your players need motivated, you drafted the wrong dudes.

It's already obvious he is no nonsense....he wasn't about letting the little pu..ies sit out practice for hangnails like huecifer

I’m all for them sitting out, the medical data suppports it, that wasn’t his point.

He didn’t want Duke over riding a bike and doing whatever, he wanted him with his teammates, in uniform, getting mental reps and being engaged, which imo is exactly what a rest day should look like.

Freddie gets it.

Just like Dorsey is the GM and he should pick the coach, Freddie is the HC and should pick the staff.

Agree, but don't you think Freddie will appreciate good, thoroughly researched recommendations being presented to him on a silver platter?

I like Dorsey, but his issue in KC was power/control.

Just hope he isn’t using Freddie as his patsy or pawn to control the staff.

Just like Dorsey is the GM and he should pick the coach, Freddie is the HC and should pick the staff.

Dorsey does not seem like a power guy. He has surrounded himself with some of the most accomplished front office members in the NFL. If you wanted all the power and control you wouldn't hire high profile names like that let alone that many.

He was fired because the owner and Andy Reid didn't like how close to the vest and secretive he worked. I have no problems with Dorsey being so secretive. Coaches talk far too much and Owners don't need to know. Sure they want to know but in reality they don't know jack about football and all they need to worry about is the results.

To add to what we are saying

Bill b isnt an a+ emotional leader, he wins on team first mentality, technical competence and great strategy.

Freddie isnt bill b, but technically the offense looks good and there is a clear strategy each week, which is a cut above everything I have seen over his redundant decade of fandom.

Ahhh the growing pains we are going to experience with this....We get more experienced coaches in here that screw up managing the game as a HC and you truly think this is going to be better? I can live with the growing pains and learning curve, but if we miss the playofffs the next couple of seasons because of inexperience mistakes are you going to be as willing to live with it? I will but am asking all of you fans of this. 

I just hope that he takes on only HC duties and hires someone to do the actually play calling. If he is doing both this is going to be just another in a long line of failures. 

 

The long line of failures came from the likes of Shurmur and Hue trying to flex and say they don’t need an OC on the staff. It never hurts to have more coaches. 

You look at Peterson with the eagles, he calls the plays and has an OC, Reid calls the plays but has an OC, Nagy calls plays but has an OC, McVay calls the plays but has a run game coordinator and another being the passing game coordinator. 

So you look at the more offensive HCs in the league, they call plays but they also hire an OC. 

Another coach to help with offensive duties never hurts. 

I also would want Kitchens to hire an OC so over time he becomes the playcaller. Allow the OC to learn how Kitchen’s offense opportates. Like Nagy was the OC for 2 years but didn’t call plays until his 2nd year

I haven't posted a lot recently (just moved house and too stressed/tired) but I watched all but the last two games of the season. It was bizarre watching a competent unit on a Sunday. What Baker achieved this season is equivalent to...well I don't know. A Browns QB not only looking like an NFL QB, but one of the best leaves a strange feeling.

Whatever happens, the decision to roll with what's working is the correct one. I'm fully on board with the Freddie promotion.

Presented as options? Perhaps.

As long as it’s Freddie’s making the picks...

Eh, possibly.  He may have a bunch of names, but he unquestionably swings the big dong.

Don’t disagree. Dorsey should handle his business.

"Options"?

As in "Oh, btw, I have fired/released a shat load of the coaching staff, have done exhaustive research on improvements and here they are for you to consider although the ultimate choices, of course, are yours to make? I will just step back and see what you decide."

And do you really think that Freddie has done or has time to do his homework as well as Dorsey has done his?
