WindyCity Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 With Morton's name coming up in head coaching discussions I am wondering if you guys can enlighten me about the offense he runs? Tendencies? Ideal personnel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tendencies? Ideal personnel? Runs a West Coast offense, loves to throw to Backs, TEs, really likes working screens, comes from Sean Payton's system so he likes to use all his backs in the running and passing game, and he isn't afraid to dial up deep passes.

rdelaney89 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Big fan of his, I think he's 1-2 years away from being a legit head coaching candidate. I'm hoping we can hang onto him a little longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingOfNewYork Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Receiver/QB friendly system. Utilized his backs perfectly to keep the defense off balance. He’s gotten better as a coach during the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindyCity Posted November 15, 2017 Author Share Posted November 15, 2017 You guys seem to have more speed than size at WR? How does he use the TEs? The TEs seem to be big guys more than flex TEs who run WR routes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enunwa got hurt in the preseason but he would have been a similar build of a TE so I'm sure he would have been involved more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDotNova Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Hopefully the Jets can hold on to him for a couple more years. I like him as our offensive coordinator. If things don't work out over that time with Bowles, I wouldn't mind him getting the head coaching job for the Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindyCity Posted November 15, 2017 Author Share Posted November 15, 2017 Interesting read about how Morton uses spread concepts like the Saints to rip up zone defenses. http://www.footballoutsiders.com/film-room/2017/film-room-new-york-jets-offense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsandI Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Wow... My upcoming mock had him going to Bears as the most shocking news. Morton runs the adaptive WCO verison. However, he may not continue doing the heavy run game for Bears. Maccagnan likes blocking TE that can roll out so it is a moot point whether or not Morton can flex TE out. Pete Carmichael Jr. may be better choice for Bears. He handles deeper offensive book than Morton. Poor Vic Fangio. Potential gets passed over by two green coaches (Tomsula and Morton?). lol.

Bowles always wants spread offense so Morton does his best to run something similar to Gailey and Payton's offenses. Again, he can adapt anything to pass first offense. WCO? Spread? Coryell? Mix? so go on. Him being green is alarming, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everyone will be chasing their Sean McVay this season, a guy who is clearly a play calling and game planning advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our offense right now is run, run, pass, punt/convert 3rd and 12. The fact that Trubisky is producing anything is shocking to us all considering how predictable and bad the play calling is.

McVay was not green when he was hired as HC for Rams. He ran OC for 3 years solid. Morton made his first debut at OC in NFL this year but you never know. 12 minutes ago, WindyCity said: We would like to run less. Our offense right now is run, run, pass, punt/convert 3rd and 12.

I have no idea what happen to Bears' run game. Solid run game won't bother you. John Fox is always that conservative. Morton's offense suffers 1,2,3 and out many times this year. Most of them were passes. Same difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tendencies? Ideal personnel? He is better than the past few we had, every body seems to like him. His only problem is he just doesn't have the talent, but he is doing the best he can with the garbage the Jet front office gave him. He is the coach we do not want to lose. But you can have the rest of the coaching staff, and we will even throw in a GM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby816 Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 He needs to be made our HC in the offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
