GrizzlyBear Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 ‘‘He demands that you do the right things every single time. One time out of five isn’t good enough. You have to do it right every single time.’’ Taken fron Suntimes interview with Kromer, Garza and Slauson. this was Garza statement on Kromer http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...nsive-line.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 This is also encouraging: In five seasons with the Saints, Kromer had six linemen from every position on the line make at least one Pro Bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradjock Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 This is also encouraging: That's encouraging. I just worry it was because Drew Brees is so damn good. Cutler is more likely to get an offensive lineman fired. It could also have to do with Sean Peyton's influence. Kind of like Bill Bellichick always has great assistants who suck elsewhere. I hope you're right and Kromer is the difference maker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongo3451 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Every coach I ever had demanded that. Why wouldn't they on the pro level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Every coach I ever had demanded that. Why wouldn't they on the pro level? I suspect it has to do with Lovie's laissez faire attitude, a soft approach that has been mentioned numerous times on this board. It's one of the reasons the players loved playing for him; the accountability for their screw ups were severely lacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you're right and Kromer is the difference maker. No matter how good Brees was at reacting and getting rid of the ball quickly, they also had a system designed to play to his strengths.

AZ54 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Every coach I ever had demanded that. Why wouldn't they on the pro level? I agree, that's not the real news, or key to Kromer's success, but it is still telling the way Garza stated it. I think the secret lies more in the teaching aspect and his understanding that different guys have to do things slightly different to fit their talents.

selection7 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 ‘‘He demands that you do the right things every single time. One time out of five isn’t good enough. You have to do it right every single time.’’ There's a big difference between every time and 20% of the time. I find that humorous. Why not just say "coach says do it right every time...once every few dozen times isn't good enough". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
