Ed Reed and new defensive staff.

Advertisement
Thought I’d share this. I hung out with a couple players through some mutual friends a few weeks ago. One thing they told me about Ed Reed and the D staff relationship. Ed would talk to the secondary players after a team meeting and the coaches (Banda in particular) would absolutely hate it since Ed would say something completely different. We all know who the players would rather listen to.

Thats why I still believe his hiring was not a PR move.

All season long if you watched him and noticed he was watching the defense closely and jotting down notes on the sideline. He used this season IMO to observe and then make his recommendations.

Side note: @Hstokes1447 any cigars you recommend

As some here may know Ed, is a good friend of mine. When he is home in Atlanta we often hang out smoke cigars and talk Canes. Back in November we were having a conversation about the team (most I will keep to myself), here is the one thing I will share from Ed’s exact words

“Manny’s boys are the problem, I have 3 championship defensive playbooks in my office and not one member of the defensive staff has every asked me a question about defense, but the offensive coaches are in my office everyday”

He was deeply concerned about how bad the defensive coaching was and told me how he would regularly meet with the AD about fixing the coaching on that side of the ball. Today’s hire is a step in the right direction. Hopefully T-Rob takes full advantage of being on the same staff as the best safety of all time.

That seems like apathy and lack of want to by the defensive staff. You’ve got a hall of famer in the building and you don’t talk to him?! You don’t ask for input?

Enjoying a Plasencia as I type this. We seem to have very similar palates. For Cubans, try a RASS if you haven’t.

Hypothetical question if ed Reed was offered the dc position would he take it.i think with how smart of a player he was and a film junkie he would kill it.just like joe Brady did at lsu with very little prior coaching experience
