He was a good defensive coordinator. As far as Detroit goes his first year had some promise but this culture of football players aren’t cut from the same cloth as what he was used to. Patriots players under Bill had to be different because of the culture installed. These kids today are social media nerds and soft. They would rather have fun be on the internet taking videos than win. It’s not his fault this generation is soft
Usually it means going through a specific set of players maybe that first set script of 10 to 15 plays that you expect to get off before the game script could change as far as being up or down. You might have a separate script for end of half coming into the second half that type of thing. Basically what he is saying is they would watch a bunch of film and Belichick would have them pat it out so they had to grab the pencils. He had a print out and they needed to describe a draw what they were thinking or what they were supposed to have learned as far as route concepts, etc. that way they could go home and study. Very much what I don’t know your age but anybody who was born before 1995 had to do throughout their life when it came to study time. Writing stuff down after you go through it, drying it out, writing it down again it helps you remember as a human.
Sorry for the word vomit @codewarrior 😂 I only ended up playing into the collegiate level, but… That question made the 15 concussions in my brain nerd back out to a fun level brotha 😂
