I like it. He has done a good job with the RBs and has earned the chance to move over. I am less certain with Fontenot taking over as RB coach, but we'll see. Coaches don't always coach the position they played, some of the better ones take on a different specialty.
And maybe ball security drills will help the WRs hands.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow. -
That's a surprise. It's certainly admirable in terms of giving Bennett the opportunity to expand his horizons. It's a bit disappiointing in a way but I'm in no position to criticize it before we see how it works out.Comment

No surprise...he can kick the crap out of JJ everytime he drops the ball...fixed!
Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.Comment

I suspect YAC yards will go way up. Time for that short passing game!

Isn't there an anecdote about a great coach who didn't let his assistants teach the position they played? He said, "If you can coach, you can coach any position." It was probably intended to expand that coach's awareness of the entire game, but I never really understood that.
Meanwhile, the RBs and WRs share some things in common. Bennett can teach good blocking, and good catching. Not sure about the route running, but I imagine the WRs know that. I speculate that Bennett is a great motivator and knows how to get his players to do better the things they already know. This could be good news for the WR corp.No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.Comment

Bennett was a great receiving RB. He had 78 receptions in '94. I'm sure he can address running routes confidently.Originally posted by Smidgeon View PostComment

Touche. I was thinking in the box of routes RBs typically run (i.e. go out in the flat and wait).Originally posted by get louder at lambeau View PostNo longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.Comment

Probably in the 11 or so years he's been out of football, he's had time to learn the dozen or so routes that constitute a professional WR route tree, if he didn't know them already.Originally posted by Smidgeon View Post</delurk>Comment

The NFL and any job really is about moving up. This is a lateral move, but one that gives Bennett extra experience to one day be an OC. Good for McCarthy, giving the guys he has a chance to advance.
The natural progression for Bennett after this would be TE coach / OL assistant.
I remember looking at Tom Coughlin's career on Wiki (don't ask me why). He bounced from position to position like that until he eventually became OC and HC.Formerly known as JustinHarrell.Comment

I don't know, I just know for whatever reason I was researching Tom Coughlin's background a while back. We're football nerds. It happens.Originally posted by get louder at lambeau View PostFormerly known as JustinHarrell.Comment

OL or TE would be lateral again. Any Asst Position Coach would be a demotion. He already knows the blocking scheme from his own career and the ZBS he has been coaching. This move was to get him involved in the pass game. Next stop would be QB coach or OC.Originally posted by JustinHarrell View Post
Holmgren moved Reid from Oline to TE so he knew the pass scheme then QB coach then HC.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.Comment
