Quarterbacks as Coaches & Relationship With Their QB’s

Postby GHammond » Wed Sep 11, 2024 11:14 am

This entire QB dance got me thinking…do quarterbacks make good coaches?, and do they typically have a solid relationship(happy) with their QB, and do they develop Qb’s? NFL - Kubiak, Garrett, Spurier, June were not great NFL coaches. At SMU, ex Geo QB Cavan never fully developed a QB as Saunders and McGown were only serviceable before they cut Mike loose..ex QB phenom Jones seemed to have issues with Bo Levi and Padron, both of whom left to end up with a D-1a title in Bo’s case, and a semi appearance with Kyle at the healm - Bo ends up winning 2 CFL Grey Cups. I think those dudes had some skills? What happened with them and June? Now ex QB Rhett is at the controls and we have a qB controversy. Uncertainty and indecision seems to be his quarterback m o - not traits you want in a qB or a coach. I would not be surprised if Preston ends up pulling a Bo Nix 2.0 or a quasi Bo Levi emergence - remember, btw, Bo’s coach at Auburn, Harsin, was an ex QB. Spurrier had success, no doubt, at FL, but besides Matthews and Weufel, early, seemed to shuffle a bunch of signal callers through there after those two guys left. Just scatter shooting on a boring WED, as I try to embrace our Woody Hayes disciple, Rhett L, great D and a strong field goal kicker…another 16-13 game, Alice.

June jones clearly has narcissistic personality disorder and had a bad tendency of refusing to second guess himself. He would rather lose with his offense than make wrinkles and adjustments because he’s such a genius and his offense is already perfect, so if the player can’t run it 100%, they’re the Problem every time. He would rather cut loose a good qb than make adjustments based on their skill set

And stud WRs...the kind of guys who can get separation and "if they can touch it they will catch it" kind of guys. Haven't seen that yet like we did with Sanders, Sutton, Proche & Rice
