    Much like the wildcat or even Chicago's 4/6 defense, glanville's grits blitz what's simply something the NFL had never seen before, and thus confused and stunned the NFL for a year. This is not the same as success, the NFL is a chess match and once Jerry's opponents caught up it was obvious Jerry was playing with checkers. This is the same phenomenon we see with a sophomore slump from quarterbacks. Rookie quarterbacks the NFL has no film on have a much better chance of succeeding, in their next year as they become a known quantity to defensive coordinators that is when you find out who is for real and who isn't. Glanville was never for real

      Even more than that, the NFL specifically changed the rules to kill the Grits Blitz because it exposed how you could basically wreck the game by assaulting the wideout at the snap. NFL created the defensive holding rule and suddenly that defense didn't work so well.

This rule only allowed a defensive back one bump on a receiver within five yards. The rule was implemented because of how Lester Hayes and Mike Haynes, from the Raiders played the bump and run.

    This video shocked me! I had no idea Glanville was even alive, much less "coaching". I'm old enough to remember he was one of the clowns of the 80s (and definitely a product of that silly decade) alongside a certain Donald Trump. I had kinda forgotten that Sam Wyche was such an expert troll at times. Buddy Ryan was the other guy who was just such a schmuck, though at least he had some credibility with the Bears as a DC.

    Jerry like him or not was a colorful character. He's still coaching at 83 years old? He did turn around that very bad Houston team and made them a perennial playoff team. As a Steelers fan ,set aside the Noll incident, got Jerry fired twice. After the 89 wildcard game and after a 45-17 mnf thumping of the falcons in 1993.

It touches on lots of football, but really focuses on his racing ‘career’ you don’t even have to be a racing fan to know he is lying through his teeth on just about everything. Dude builds himself up to be on par with Dale Sr.

  • @MinisterManDan
    @MinisterManDan 29 дней назад

    The real reason the Grits Blitz was so successful is that defensive holding wasn't a penalty yet. They'd blitz 8-9 guys every play and just ask their wideouts to commit acts of assault on wide outs at the snap and trust the QB to be scared enough and the protections be overwhelmed enough to get home before the WR could break loose from the holding.
    Well the NFL responded by creating defensive holding in the offseason after and bang suddenly the defense was just okay instead of the greatest of all time.

    Man, those 1990 and 1991 Atlanta Falcons teams were so fun to watch. And Chris Miller was a good QB. And of course instead of taking it a little further in 1992 they took a Carlos back. And sure it was a completely different roster, but that 1998 team never got their well earned respect. The main focus was Denver, Minnesota, NY Jets. Then the lowly 14-2 Atlanta Falcons. And of course the year they go 14-2 they had to play the NFC Championship on the road, to play the 15-1 Minnesota Vikings. They’ve had some great years here and there. And of course there was a Super Bowl in the mix too.

      Never forget, Sacramento did have a handful of random NHL games during the 84-game seasons of the 1990s. Seriously though, the NHL is something that can thrive just about anywhere you put it because the product is really good. It's just that a lot of people are never going to give it a chance without a local connection. In that regard, Sacramento would be a great hockey town. Everything hinges on the caveat that ownership is good. Bad ownership let Arizona down massively, and that is why the NHL is no longer there.
