Juan Castillo: New OL Coach

[upperdeck]

If you can run block, you can scheme and play call to make passing work. If you are just an avg pass block team that cant run its hard to run an offense. The game we actually had a running game like Clemson, the ball flowed much better.

 

[orangepassion]

Does he do card tricks?

 

[PAcuse]

What type of blocking scheme does he run?

From what I've read he focuses on winning your indivual assignments first and then builds off of that.
So should be able to adjust to any scheme.

I have no clue how to judge OL coaches, let alone if the hiring of one is a good move.

If he can drag the carcass of this OL from hideous to mildly OK it’ll be a huge win.

Tush Push formation being installed now

I remember Juan in Philly. I may or may not be having some Bob Wylie flashbacks/ptsd, but this should be a better situation than Bob had.

He doesn't have Bob's moustache or Bob's man-boobs. So how can he possibly have Bob's level of showmanship?

Me too, I just know that Dale was BAD. Hopefully the new guy is great. Any improvement is welcome and hopefully it is MUCH better.

Well we haven’t had anyone from his previous stops come on here yet and say how awful he is……so that’s a step in the right direction

Very true!!!!

If you can gash teams with a power game in Willis, and big plays with someone like James. Then you force teams to commit to the run and you bury them over the top with a lot of single coverage. An ideal system where you dictate every game by what you want to do.
That's how you compete for championships.

Mix in some slants with Cook and/or Boobie...how do you stop that offense?

Nixon should be salivating if he gets a good offensive line with a Halfway decent defense, they might run the table.

You had me at boobie slants

 

[Irishsecra1]

I remember him from the Donovan McNabb years. He was really really good.

LOOKS LIKE MEAT(HEAD)'S BACK ON THE MENU BOYS

Definitely looks like we're losing the passing attack we had this year...

 

[MadNY3]

Curious if we draw a Michigan or UCLA player in the portal…

If you can be effective on the ground you can
throw the ball 40+ times a game with no problem. Remember those teams with Lamar Jackson, some games they had almost 800 total yards.

It was a joke

 

[IthacaMatt]

Seems like a solid hire, clearly has a ton of experience. Interesting that he's more of a run game specialist considering we've been quite pass heavy when running our ideal offense with this staff. Hopefully it meshes rather than clashes.

Well, that's what we were missing last year. If the guy was an O Line coach for the Eagles for over a decade, you have to assume he is adequate at teaching both run blocking and pass blocking technique.

They have a lot of size on the O Line, and they're not just a bunch of fat guys.
I think they might make a real jump with better coaching.

 

[MGDCuse]

You had me at boobie slants

It's like a Russ Meyer movie in here

I remember the first 17 games with Brown/Nixon. Pass first, good enough run game.
