Raiders | Shoop to help with play-calling?

Sat, 7 Oct 2006 08:48:31 -0700

Jerry McDonald, of ANG Newspapers, reports former Oakland Raiders WR Tim Brown says Raiders tight ends coach John Shoop may become more involved in play-calling with the team struggling to move the ball under offensive coordinator Tom Walsh. According to Brown, Shoop would instill a similar style of offense to that of former head coaches Jon Gruden and Bill Callahan. "I hear they're trying to make some changes, trying to go back to a couple of things that (Bill) Callahan and (Jon) Gruden were doing, but they have to do them in a very subtle way," Brown said in a local radio interview Friday, Oct. 6. "They have a young guy on that team, I can't think of his name right now…he's a quarterbacks coach who was with Gruden in Tampa and called plays in Chicago for awhile." Head coach Art Shell says Brown's claims are false. "I don't know where all this information is coming from, I really don't," Shell said. "There's no truth to that." :mellow:

And I thought it couldn't get any worse...

this is from "the onion" right? gotta be... :unsure:
 
wasn't Shoop the guy who was the Bears' OC under Jauron and ran like 47 WR screens per game??

 
It would be nice to see the Raiders do somthing to get Moss the ball.

Dink and Dunking to him Shoop style is at least a start. Moss has great hands and can make people miss if he doesen't get clobbered at the same time as the ball gets there.

It might loosen up coverage on the deep ball also and set up double moves.

C'mon Shell do somthing!! :mellow:

 
until count chocula retires it is just all cosmetic, like putting a bandaid on a severed limb, or rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic (davis is probably old enough to have booked a berth on its ill-faited maiden voyage)...

If Art is Count Chocula, what's that make Shoop?

Boo-berry? Fruit Brute?

(What Art had to say about being called Count Chocula: :mellow: )

Seriously, with Moss rotting on my bench, I'll take 47 WR screens to him over what he's been getting so far.
