    Great breakdown here. I had to type Caleb Williams "in-structure" on KZread and there's a pretty lengthy video of him even going back to Oklahoma.

    I don't know what was lost in editing but from his Seattle days to the 17th minute you shift focus off what Russ Does to play-calling. Later when you say "I'll show you what I mean" about a game where Payton lets Russ cut loose then puts him back in the box" you don't show us this. If your intention was to show how Russ was within & without Payton's play-calling, then do so. If not, why's it here at all? & I can't tell from the very limited examples *that you showed* which it is. You showed one play of Russ supposedly being out of Payton's box in Denver. How can anyone tell anything from that?

    So here's my Great Idea for a vid that I would totally do if my health didn't make it impossible for me to: compare Caleb Williams' _college plays_ to those of Justin Fields' *NFL* plays & conclude that due to having performed them in the NFL, Fields has the greater potential. Okay, the last part is optional. Roughly equal would do. It'll garner attention & grow your channel, but take a _LOT_ of work. Or maybe not. I can link one of his highlight reels. Ability to throw the ball 50+ air yards? _Check!_ At weird arm angles like Lamar & on the run like Mahomes? Check-check! Scramble dead plays back to life? This might be where Fields _is_ better. So long as the video so much as _implies Fields_ is in the same tier as Caleb on anything let alone everything, it will stir up controversy. But it wouldn't be _wrong!_ The only difference is (& this is where the highlight reels fail, so more research would have to be done) is that when Fields does this successfully & hits his receivers in the hands with his incredible passes, most of the time they are dropped & incomplete or deflected as INTs. Fields gets blamed for this. So you can in those cases show college footage of his receivers *not* dropping those (more research) or _try_ to convince people that drops aren't on him but good luck with that. Fields has drawn an unreasonable amount of hate. Once people make up their minds about a guy this way, they simply double down when their position is proven wrong. It's the off-season. You decide if it's worth your time.

    Yup. They started clicking. Still, the 49ers suckered him into one last rookie error in judgment at The Worst Time. The only things I'd care to add was something another observer said, that while Matt Lafleur designs many good plays, they think he has trouble communicating them. This is possible. Assembly-line work isn't mentally challenging. I once worked at a place that required a LOT of repetitive motions & finally figured out on my own about a month into it what I was doing wrong. When something is 'easy' for someone, they no longer need to use their Conscious Mind to do it. So asking my co-workers what I was doing wrong didn't elicit any response. They couldn't shift from thinking about everything they did there from the automatic semi- or subconscious (SC) part of their brains to the conscious one needed to explain things fully. The range of plays Lafleur comes up with looks to me like someone who sees what many others don't. They're way more complex than the majority of offensive play-calls & even How Many there are is impressive. It's hard to tell if the complexity of them is itself an issue or just the rookie needing to learn by making mistakes aspect. Either way, this was fun. I like the added touches you make to your vids.

    @@thepocketpasser It's a tricky thing. Humans pick up unspoken cues more completely than spoken ones & while this means we _can develop_ bad tendencies quite easily, I don't want to make you so self-conscious it would paralyze you. If you go in with a decent mindset as to why you're doing this, then generally you're doing all right. This was one of the areas where my over-thinking was bad. Later in life I was put in a position where I *_had_* to delegate more responsibility than I liked. It was quite an eye-opener. Turns out I much prefer teaching others how to be responsible. But that works so much better with kids than adults. That same work-place, I made changes that improved the functioning of the workplace as a whole. Within a year, people in another department changed them all back because they didn't care & had a preference for Old Habits. So even my general principles don't work in every context. You'll learn about yourself & other people as you teach them. It should be fun! About the one thing I *will say* is that sometimes, if one kid seems really troubled? Take the time to talk to them. It could be nothing & it could be that you taking the time to talk to them is all that they need. Oh, but also make sure you're in plain view of other adults if not within earshot. As someone not too attractive, _that_ became an issue more than once. I got accused & having never been anywhere where the kid felt like they were alone or in danger with me saved me from the judgmental adults.

    That's not The Reason I think things may go badly in CHI. It's amazing, isn't it? Fans were So Sure Matt Canada was the problem they chanted him out of town. But we just saw the Eagles go from contenders to laughing stock with the same roster & most fans are terrified to point their fingers at the coaching staff as a whole. The OC & Matt Patricia, sure. But fans are reticent to call out the HC. So when Fields started tucking in the ball suddenly in situations where he had a wide-open receiver, the fans did something strange. First they said "the Bears had to simplify the offense for Fields." At the time everyone _knew_ this was a coaching decision & their comments reflected this. Then people realized this implicated the coaches, especially the HC. It didn't help that he tipped his hand by 1) not taking Fields into the blue tent, revealing they knew he wasn't concussed, 2) they *kept calling for him not to* throw to certain receivers on certain plays, & 3) in post game press talks he shut down any reporter asking about what this was with a chop-wave of his hand. So what happens when everybody knows something they wish they didn't know? You *blame the victim!* The meme changed simply to "Fields can't read defenses" as if that explained anything. You don't have to 'read' defenses to throw to an _already_ open receiver. That's what 'open' means, they *aren't* in coverage anymore. There's nothing to read. So now because fans are mentally-emotionally incapable of dealing with facts, Fields is a back-up when he's in actuality a top-5 QB. Just so we can pretend that nothing's wrong with the HC who set him up to fail. & the end result? They're stuck with the incompetent HC! Enjoy your 6th-rounder Bears! (I don't think either Tomlin or Arthur Smith are able to tell Fields is better than anyone. So they'll start Russ).

    @@Kenny49ERS I'm someone who has coached, trained, worked in middle management, seen some of the Worst Humans in decision-making power & doesn't sugar-coat reality to _themselves._ So sometimes I forget to sugar-coat it for others. So keep that in mind if the following makes you uncomfortable, but I think that the reason Poles hired Eberflus is that they agreed that they both wanted to draft Caleb Williams. & you couldn't justify not keeping Fields if he was in any way competent. So while the team never outright _said_ they were doing any such thing, imagine if you will Joe Burrow suddenly not passing to any wide-open receiver for Any Reason. You'd suspect he may have been concussed only we didn't see it, right? & if he did this twice more in the game & they didn't take him into the blue tent, fans might follow their HC home to ask why he didn't do this. Possibly while helping him pack. So it's at the very least a _little_ suspicious that Not One Staffer Thought *Fields* might be concussed? It's also a little sus that weeks later when he called out his coaches publicly Not One Person On the team responded? Not the owner? He didn't demand that this be investigated? Not the HC who supposedly needs clear communication? Not even to reprimand Fields for speaking publicly about his coaches? Not the GM whose career could be haunted or ended by not doing what you just suggested? So how did *ALL* the analysis channels _miss_ all this? They didn't. It's a psychological phenomenon that kinda goes like this: despite it being Great News, announcing a cure for cancer would cause remorse in anyone who lost a loved one due to it. Any change in what we think we know about health & medicine comes with a creeping dread of wondering "what _else_ might we have gotten wrong?" Questioning _ANY_ authority figure causes people to feel this same intrinsic dread. If I'm calling out the *HC,* I'm essentially calling out the franchise that hired him. So while most people turn away from that, I don't & here's why. We're doing way more damage doing that than the opposite. What if Fields never gets to start again? What if playing for over a year for an organization that showed this much undeserved hate for him has taken its toll & he actually _is_ ruined now? Not holding Authority Figure To Account is = to joining with them against their victims. Emotionally it's easier to just Side With The Authority Figures & ignore the consequences, but I don't know why anyone would want to do in real life what every villain in every story we've ever watched or read does.
