Dink and fucking dunk. Really fits Justin Fields. Right?
Fields has been crap across the board... especially on quick throws.
McDaniels has Mac Jones performing leaps and bounds over every other rookie QB in the league by playing to his abilities.
McDaniels also turned Cassel in to a 10-6 fill in off the bench.
McDaniels also brought brady from a game manager first and foremost in the early days to being the oc that put up the number one 2007 passing offense in yards per attempt, yards per game, passing touchdowns, completion percentage, total yardage, and rating.
It was the very definition of a big play offense.
Seems to me that McDaniels can hit home runs in the passing game no matter what style he is forced to employ.
The only frame of reference you have outside of New England is Denver.
In that situation he was correct on Cutler, was saddled with Orton, lost Marshall, was screwed even further by getting Tebow, and sacrificed in the house cleaning for the John Elway hire.
His stint in Denver can really only be considered an incomplete.
I don't get the McDaniels hatred. He will hit double digit wins with a rookie.
He has run an offense with a 6th round qb playing game manager, he has run the most prolific and explosive big play offense in the game.
He has created gaudy numbers for superstar recievers, he has created offenses allowing middling possession receivers to shine. He has run offenses featuring dominant tight ends, running back by committee, and once in a blue moon a great workhorse running back.
I find it incredibly strange that someone would take issue with him as an oc when he has literally found success employing every conceivable offensive strategy over the years.
He has a rookie performing top in his class by selecting the style that is working at this moment... and that is what Chicago needs, is it not?
Do you think McDaniels will forget how to call a season like 2007 with 50 tds and 8 interceptions with a league leading yards per attempt just because he is catering to the strengths of a rookie at this moment in time?
Your take on McDaniels is ridiculous.
Please, if you are that down on McDaniels and his "dink and dunk" style, name another oc in the league that has had success like he has employing quite possibly the widest array of offensive schemes and philosophies anyone has cycled through, finding success in all iterations.
It is hard to believe given the struggles Fields has gone through in regards to play calling, that someone can take issue with the oc of the patriots calling games for a rookie that has resulted in the patriots leading the division, tied for most wins in their conference, and being the 3rd ranked scoring offense in the league.
