I was talking to Cak in another thread and wanted to know who else heard him today? I loved what he had to say. I think having a guy who has seen alot around the league holds alot of water.
He randomly called in to tell John and Justice what he think makes a great coach and thus a top team. He went through guys like Schnellenberger, Jimmy Johnson, Parcells, etc. He said when they entered a room guys stopped what they were doing and waited for them to talk. They had some fear in them. Their main goal was to be one of the 11 guys that got to play. When the teams had that attitude and the fear they knew the guy next to them was ready for battle and games. He said he learned the difference his last year in Tampa where they were 2-14 under Sam Wyche. He said guys just kept doing what they were doing when he walked in. They got used to the status quo. He said all of the top guys he played for or saw weren't exactly liked and that he gets suspicious when he hears players like a coach. There is no such thing as a players coach. It was very eye opening. He says the Packers coach now commands alot of respect and he doesn't get blustery or act tough, guys just know who the boss is.
I haven't found the podcast up but hopefully they will post it. To me it was an indictment on the way the Texans were doing things. Didn't know what anyone else read into his call.
