PFF - Ranking the NFL’s top 10 returning head coaches entering 2024
Obvious is Obvious. Andy is 1. Full List is in Spoilers.
https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-ranking...-entering-2024 1. ANDY REID, KANSAS CITY CHIEFS Pairing Reid with Patrick Mahomes has been a cheat code that has led the Kansas City Chiefs to four Super Bowl appearances and three Super Bowl wins. On offense, they have ranked inside the top five in EPA per play every season from 2018-2022, even predating Mahomes’ arrival. They dropped to 12th last season, but with some significant improvements at the wide receiver position, expect them to be back inside the top five again in 2024.
Spoiler!

Someone in the other thread did make a good point. Did Harbaugh stunt Lamar’s growth by tailoring the offense around his athleticism for so long? |

No chance in hell. There's no stunting a guy with those kind of Gigabytes, dude.

What exactly are you supposed to do with a RB at QB?
Try to make him a pocket passer? Or let him do what he does best? If he did what he does best in the AFCCG instead of trying to win from the pocket, we might've lost. It's VERY simple. |

If so, that might actually explain how some of those coverages got broken. Jackson had some BIG plays on the table to make with his arm and he just didn't make 'em. And if Spags is out there putting on looks that suggest to Jackson that he's going to close off escape lanes, well you can't really expect Jackson to continue looking for them as the game progresses; he's had to put himself in a different mindset. In real time I was absolutely convinced that Jackson just vapor-locked and screwed them. As I read/saw more, however, I think Spags simply did what he can do on occasion (and Belichick was a master of) and got him out of a comfort zone. And once that happened, even those plays that looked available for Lamar's legs were tendency breakers and not something that Jackson had the feel to look for at that point of the game.

But when that's how it's going in year 6, I think it's safe to say that Lamar has been maxed out as a passer. This idea that Harbaugh and the OCs have stunted his growth is just hilarious. |

I think there’s a real possibility that six years of allowing the QB to rely on athleticism and run-heavy game plans has held back his progression. |

You'd have more success making Lamar Jackson a wide receiver than you would a pocket passer.
He simply doesn't have the biomechanics for it. It would go about as well as trying to make Tebow one. Nothing Harbaugh did held Jackson back. He got the absolute most out of the guy that anyone possibly could.

![]() ![]() ![]() You're so clueless. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken shit. He doesn't have the tools or the brains to be a pocket passer. You're delusional if you think otherwise. The guy is a 2 time MVP and was really close to being in a ****ing SB last year. Considering how bad he is at actually playing QB, that's a miracle. It has worked only because they've played to his strengths and got the absolute most out of him. This might be your most reeruned take ever. Last edited by staylor26; 06-27-2024 at 09:16 PM.. |

Not a fan of Tomlin, but I can see why they put him as high as they did. But just based on what Stefanski did last season (and everyone knows I'm not a big fan of Stefanski either) he really should be ranked above Tomlin at this point.
At this point, I have to admit that Dan Campbell is a pretty good coach, but he's probably ranked a little too high as well. Going for 4th and long from behind his own 40-yd line is just dumb as hell, especially when his team was still well within striking distance. And he did the same thing earlier in the season, with the same results. I can't see him ranked where he is either.

.. Unless you lean on the business angle. Maybe they trusted that Lamar was a good enough football player to keep them employed for a few more years knowing that he’ll win games but never be good enough to win them a trophy. |
