says the guy who doesn't even watch the games

Can we? get Penix an 11th year of eligibility?
-
I've seen enough to know that sometimes his play-calling was mind-boggling. If he and DeBoner didn't have Penix, they would have had a mediocre record. They both benefited greatly from BPE.
-
Would Fisch actually give up playcalling? Knowing the answer is no, Grubb is not coming back.
-
-
Yes I know. Or at least I'm 98% sure that's true
-
Since Fisch won't stop calling plays anytime soon he'll only hire OCs in title which Grubb aint doing. Grubb is a little suspect until we see what he does without Penix. I have a feeling Penix' NFL career and the paths of other guys will suggest he elevated a lot of people around him.
-
As long as the line is better i don't care who is calling the plays
-
All true, but he did have success at Fresno too. Haener, while a plucky little guy with a good arm, was no Penix. He also didn't have lines or WR depth there like he had at UW.
I don't really know if I'd want him or not. He is a good OL coach from what I've gathered. His play calling will always be suspect, I suspect.

I’m in the camp where Fishdicks had better be on the phone with Grubb asking if he might like to take a year off. Be an analyst at UW, talk ball and scheme with Jedd and his staff. Stay in his house, with his wife and their young child. Relax, don’t move on right away, hit the reset button and work a 9 to 5 for a year. No pressure. Help us? set some offensive records next year and then you’ll be in high demand with your pick of jobs. If microfiche has not had that phone call with Grubhub then he’s an idiot. I’d think it would be an easy sell.

For the little bit I watched the Seahawks, his playcalling was very similar to his tenure at UW. Some of his calls in the passing game were creative and overall solid, but the lack of emphasis on the running game was disturbing. When Grubb calls great games, the run sets up the pass. He is in love with the 30yrd fades and shit that become a lot of 2nd and 3rd and longs.
If he wanted to stay in Seattle I would absolutely find a way to get him involved -
The weird thing is, the Shehawks have retained worse coordinators in the past ten years, sometimes for years. Bevell and Clint Hurt or whatever come to mind. Grubb might have been a bit of a problem in ways, but he can't stop Geno from making dumb plays in the red zone, or suddenly improve the offensive line.
-
I'll save you some breath. He has not. He will not.
-
Methinks Grubb got bailed out by Penix and the WRs a lot on third and longs when he got them into holes but the talent there was just too hard for any college defense other then 2023 Michigan or apparently whittle Kwenny Dwillingham's.
-
A 6'1" man is a "plucky little guy"?
-
The Tedford route
-
That’s just football speak for something between 5’9” and 6’.
-
Haha I thought that might draw your ire
Is he really 6'1"? That surprises me if true. I watched him get severely rag dolled in the games I watched while Deboer was still there. He was brave and tough and threw great balls, but he looked tiny to me.
Mute point irregardless. The point was that Grubb had success with him because he's good. Grubb needs a good QB and receivers or his aggressive tendencies backfire more often than not.
-
You SOB
-
There was that one awful Seattle Times photo of him throwing in fall camp with Sirmon and the guy from Lake Stevens towering behind him, while Haener looks like he's Tattoo from Fantasy Island
-
I don't really follow the NFL but just read a piece about why Grubb was fired by the Seahawks… he refused to run the ball in obvious situations when the running game was working and instead was trying to force the pass, costing the Seahawks some wins.
Sound familiar? Remember DeBoer's last season here when some of us were pretty sure that DeBoer forced Grubb to call more run plays?
Maybe we'd be better off without Grubb. I really doubt his style of O would work without a Penix caliber QB and 2-3 healthy NFL caliber WRs, which we don't have.
-
Not to mention OL. Penix relied on having a ridiculous amount of time under Grubb. I haven't seen to many OL that successful at pass blocking...the ASU and natty games excluded
-
To your point Chuck, in the upset of Fresneck over UCLA, which I watched, Haener was literally almost killed. I mean he got hit after hit and, while courageous and somehow making throws, was getting broken. I’m surprised he had a liver after that game. Didn’t seem very stout to me.
-
Brock Huard said he heard also that Grubb was very gruff and rubbed many people the wrong way.
-
-
Not confirmed whether or not he murdered a family on vacation
-
as far as Grubbs time in the nfl goes I read that he didn’t understand the different defenses and defensive trees in which they are connected to. No understanding of how to attack or even game plan properly because he just wasn’t an nfl guy or understood defensive trees in the nfl. Lots of talk about how McDonald was sitting him down prior to each game to help him gain this insight. Ultimately why they want an nfl guy to run a complimentary offense and understand each teams defensive concepts.

interesting

I’ll keep workin the phones!
