I will give him the little tidbit about the Noodle knowing more about the scheme than our coaches, one would almost have to think that especially after 20 years running this offense but the rest of the stuff, ala the HC taking a back seat to a QB, is really out there.
Again, gonna be fun to see who actually believes this jibberish.
ah, so a quote from a player that proves your point is a reputable source, but if it goes against what you preach its jibberish?
Backseat to Favre might be a bit of a stretch (Seems to be the authors interpretation anyway, not Percy's quote), but its absolutely believable that Favre ran the offense, despite what you'd have us think.
Running the offense and audibling from the run play to the pass play the O-cord sent in isn't running the offense.
I have never once said he didn't have the lattitude to do this. :P
What I have said is that there is no way the Noodle spends time going over the other teams defensive weaknesses, then sits down and lays out the gameplan, briefs it to the HC and then orchestrates that gameplan during the game.
and nobody is telling you this either.
There's a difference between running the offense and calling the offense.
If there's a QB who calls the offense, its Peyton Manning.
Brett Favre runs it though, no question.

again, these are the direct quotes from Harvin:
Quote:
I just went into [the season] trying to contribute to the team first of all in the special-teams area but Brett got there and kind of took me into the game a little faster than I probably would have learned it under other quarterbacks,”
Quote:
“I knew my job would be a lot easier when Brett got here,” Percy said. “He knows the game better than some of our coaches there. I knew our offense would run a lot smoother with a lot more opportunities. He’s known as a gunslinger.”
the rest is just interpretation.
Good point on Peyton, but all in all, he still doesn't do the legwork on the gameplan vs the opposing teams weakness.
There is a whole coaching staff that puts that stuff together.
Quick question, in the direct quotes, do you know what the
means?
I'd imagine he just said something like "I just went into
this trying..." or some other generic term, and it was altered so there would be minimal confusion as to what he meant.
They say Peyton watches more tape than anybody, I'm willing to be he's at least active in gameplanning. He probably sits with the coaches and goes over tape and points out things he notices. He seems like one of the most pro-active guys in the league, I doubt those countless accounts of how much he watches tape and works are all lies. I don't know the extent on what he does, but I'd be willing to bet that he has some part in gameplanning.
That, and he has a choice of plays to run on any given play, should also make that fairly clear.
I've said before, Tom Moore has one of the easiest jobs in the game.
I'd love to see just how much Peyton's involved in film study etc.
It's close to impossible to build a gameplan etc. while being the QB of a succesful team. Tom has to filter some stuff out for him.
In the end, I think that it's more of a great minds think alike thing with Manning and Moore. They seem to work together so well.

Believe what? Jibberish coming from a yutz with a keyboard or an actual NFL player? Pretty easy decision. Once again Marrdro, you lose.

Audible vs Gameplanning. Two entirely different concepts.

There are quality control guys and assistant coaches on the offense that are younger than Brett.
He's been running the offense for 17 years. There's no doubt he knows what works and what doesn't, he's seen it all.
I don't think there's any controversy in Harvin's statement, it's factual. He knows the offense better than some of our guys, no doubt. Better than Childress? No. Better than Bevell? Maybe. The rest of the guys going down the food chain, probably.
The Chicago game is proof positive he knows it better than Childress. Even Favre was quoted to saying he basically took over the 2nd half.

I agree, Peyton is probably the most active in that regard, but he probably only gets involved when they review specific sets/trends that the rest of the staff has found, to make sure he knows what he is seeing.

So what your saying is, it isn't a direct quote, but actually a quote the author took the liberty of editing so us dumb yutz's would understand the point the author was trying to make.
In short, he thinks we are to dumb to get his point on our own or might even come up with an altogether idea which probably doesn't meet his agenda...... :huh:
if you edit a quote, you've gotta put the [edits] in the brackets. similar to this
