Transcript from OC Brian Daboll's Press Conference - 9/10
-
i was very critical of daboll last season. but out of fairness, i'm sure his job calling plays for da and bq wasn't easy. so it will be nice to see him call plays for a qb who's an upgrade over what he had to deal with last season.
-
last year, i hated daboll. i think that every single browns fan did. by the end of the season, he really came into his own and started becoming a lot more creative with the playcalling. i'm excited about this year. i'm sure that he won't run consecutive WildDawg plays on 1st and goal this year.

OC of the Bucs, Greg Olson, was also someone Bucs fans loved to hate last year. Towards the end of the year he really started calling some good games. I think most Bucs fans still wanted him gone, but we kept him for continuity with Freeman. This is his first FULL off season as an OC in the league and everyone is excited to see what he does with it.
If you see some questionable calls on Sunday though, don't be surprised. Olson tends to make some odd decisions on 3rd and short... like coming out in shotgun and trying to pass. (talking like 3rd and 1, 3rd and 2)

agreed. and it helps alot that holmgren brought in an offensive guru like gil haskell to help him out. ofcourse, holmgren pitched in to.

It seems we have a different Daboll this season. Last season, I despised his stupid play calling.
Now, we replaced that guy, with a smart, personable different guy.
The change is fun. I kinda feel like Daboll was t-r-y-i-n-g to get simple results from s-i-m-p-l-e-t-o-n qb's last year,
and just couldn't get things going from the beginning.
This offense is going to shock the defenses they play. They will be very successful.
Can't wait for the Wilddawg plays !

From what i have seen dabs is basically running many of the same plays with the biggest difference being a far better QB more familiar with mangini's system and who can handle many more on the fly options, the biggest fault i had with dabs last year is that he was afraid to just let it rip with whomever was under center, i can understand not trusting DA or BQ in hindsight but you still have to let it all go with what you have and hope they get it and if they dont everyone will see it was their fault..
If there is one thing i hope dabs got from last years disaster it is that lesson, you cant win if you dont give everything you have or at least go down trying rather than looking like a weak minded over conservative gimp..
Basiclly i faulted dabs with poor coordination and game planning because he did nothing to build trust and that was obvious throughout the whole season, trust is a big part of a coordinators job and an absolute must in a team game...
Now that dabs and mangini have their own players that they trust and a great new attitude and team outlook they should hold nothing back now and they also have no excuses either...

it will be nice to see what plays he can call now. sometimes you have to get a lil aggressive on the playcalling. it can put a d at a disadvantage.

I remember during the Ratbirds game,a 3rd down situation that screamed for a pass in the flat yet Daboll ran it up the middle,I realized then
that this guy was handcuffed...we we're down by 7...if he has BQ throw the ball, chances are it's ...at minimal a turn over...at worst pic 6
He really couldn't just have either of those QB's just chuck it....because the results usually were disasterous...he was trying "NOT TO LOSE"
games with personnel that seemed hell bent on it.

good post. daboll had no confidence in bq and da and his play calling revolved around that (unfortunately).

I really wonder how much they'll be using non-standard formations/trick-plays in the game today. I can't decide if I'm more psyched to watch the offense or more psyched to watch the defense. Tough call-- both are so improved this year-- or so it seems.

i can see them saving those types of plays for the more elite opponents.

Exactly. If they can beat them mainly with the running game, it makes sense to save the tricks. At the same time, I bet they'd like to get some more experience running the WildDawg etc.

i could see that to. maybe do a little something, but maybe not the best they have in their "bag of tricks".
