Jeremiah Trotter played a total of seven seasons for Andy Reid in three different stints with the Eagles. And he thinks he lost a lot of games because Reid got out-coached.
“If it came down to both teams were even, talent-wise,*I think the opponent’s team would win if it came down to coaching,” Trotter said on 97.5 The Fanatic, via Philly.com. “Andy Reid got out-coached in a lot of games, man, a lot of big games,” Trotter continued. “Time outs, running the football, you know.”
Trotter said Reid’s offensive style made things different for the defense and the late defensive coordinator Jim Johnson, who ran the defense in Philadelphia until his death in 2008.
“As a defense, we understood we passed the ball too much. You know, there’s times we’re sitting over there like, ‘Man, listen. Just get us a couple of first downs so we can get a break.’ And I’m sure it frustrated Jim Johnson also,” Trotter said
Still, Trotter acknowledges that he won a lot of games during his time with Reid, and he says he would have given Reid a 7.5 or 8 on a scale of 1-10. I shudder to think what he’d say about a coach who was a 1.
Good coaches don't get out coached in a lot of games. [Reply]

of course since you haven't coached anything then should lead the way out the CP door.
I guess the DC forum will be empty soon... [Reply]

I didn't say that. Learn to read. I asked because I want to know how you know what the proper game plan would be. I am guessing you've never coached and get your "experience" playing Madden, a simulation game written by software geeks who also never played or coached football.
In short, why should I take your opinion seriously? What game plan have you ever put together?

Convince me.
lol, you didn't need to say anything. I knew where you were heading. This response validates my assumption.
How much coaching experience do you have to say that i'm wrong? That Jeremiah Trotter is wrong?
I imagine i've played as much organized football as most of the people on this board.

FYI don't play madden at all.
I've never made a game plan in my life - which is why I don't make claims of knowing what the proper game plan would be. I certainly would never have the arrogance to claim I know more than one of the most winning coaches in football. [Reply]

As long as you and Clay and the handful of other children are here there will always be bitching no matter who the QB/HC is because you are attention whores who hate the Chiefs. [Reply]

Not true.
Give the CP Way a shot for once in 45 years, and we'll :-) and watch it play out. [Reply]
