Re: Coaching and Front Office Changes

I’m fine with letting KOC leave and if Turner is who RR wants in RR I trust. I’m stoked we hired him. However, my only concern is based off of the reports I’ve heard about Haskins ability to learn a playbook over the course of his first season. Unsure how true they are, but I’ve read multiple times he struggled to pickup the playbook so him having to start ALL over worries me especially when he was finally appearing to pick things up there at the end of the season. I hope it doesn’t look like we’re starting from scratch come week 1 next year. The one caveat to all that is The Grudens are known to have an unnecessarily complex playbook and play calling style.

I don’t think he struggled to pick up things as much as he wasn’t taking things seriously enough in the beginning. Once he did he took off.

I heard that too, that he put absolutely no time into watching film and stuff. I personally think he’s got a ton of talent and he seems quite smart. When he throws the ball it jumps off the screen like only a few quarterbacks balls in the league. But that’s worrisome if he’s not willing to put in the work at the position of quarterback.

AP called him out and told him to start studying he playbook. To me that is worrisome. He should not have to be told to study.

He is young and sometimes people need a fire lite under their ass. He did show progress in the final 4 games. We won't really know for a year or two.

Which is why I 100% agree that RR hasn't committed to him as the week 1 starter yet, and is publicly challenging him. That is what he needs. We'll see how Haskins responds. Tweets are one thing, let's actually see if he puts in the work he keeps tweeting about.
