RpMc Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) Patterson wearing a lot of hats these days. All i hope is that he still has time to be the excellent teacher he's shown to be. We need to be sure to split development hours appropriately Edited April 14, 2021 by RpMc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might need every chance they get to impress the coaches and be as prepared as possible going into the preseason to have a chance of making the team. I realize the NFLPA doesn't really represent them but it'd be nice if they let them have the option of practicing since the veterans could use covid as an option to opt out anyways NFLPA likes to keep the middle 80% 'most happy'. Everything is a bargaining issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All i hope is that he still has time to be the excellent teacher he's shown to be. We need to be sure to split development hours appropriately I’m guessing that most are titles out of respect, and that his duties haven’t changed. He’s still primarily the d-line coach. Despite what the titles are, I still view the breakdown of responsibilities as such. Mike Zimmer - Gameday DC and play caller Paul Guenther - M-F DC responsibilities, same role as George Edwards Andre Patterson - D Line coach Adam Zimmer - LB coach I think last year, after Edwards left, Zimmer split the responsibilities that Edwards had during the week between himself, Patterson, and his son. And I think it spread them out too thin. That’s why I think they brought in Paul Guenther, to take over those responsibilities and allow the two Zimmers and Patterson to get back to doing what they do best.

Just get him in on the passing downs and let him hunt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoDakViking Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 2 hours ago, vikesfan89 said: A starter? Is wouldn't think Richardson would be interested but I definitely think they will draft a DT for passing downs like Twyman or Darius Stills. That is unless they think James Lynch as progressed enough for that role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
