?

Running a upbeat, precise practice to accomplish your plans for the day is better than taking 3 hours to accomplish those same plans, correct?

I think some of you have confused a high school practice with what is done in the NFL...

Not if the the upbeat practice leads to poor execution on gameday resulting in one of the worst offenses in the league, whereas the long practice led to great execution and one of the best offenses in the league. Correct?

Players, the vast majority of players, are Retreaded morans.

What, exactly, did those long practices do for the defensive side of the ball?

If only it were all that simple then we could get DV back to run 3 hour long Offensive practices and get our O back. What has to be done to get a good D?

There are way too many variables for your analogy to even be considered outside of a fantasy realm....

most of you are confusing the term "best coach" with "most successful coach".

Not a damn thing but total destruction of confidence.

The same thing as Herm's short practices. At least the O and ST's were much better.

And that had to do with the length of practice, or the talent level?

I guess the Patriots practiced 4 hours a day during the early part of this decade?

DV had guys going out for 3 hours to the point that Willie Roaf specifically cited DV's practices as the reason his career ended early. And Vermeil's teams were the softest bitches this side of the Pillsbury Doughboy.

Both. Why is it so hard for you to accept that according to the players DV had them run through plays until they were executing perfectly and that might have helped them execute properly on game day?

and why is it so hard for you to accept that maybe practice length is only one part of a 200 part process for success? You are putting all your eggs in one basket, hanging on to just this one theory.

It's hard to accept because it didn't benefit the other side of the ball.

The defensive players were part of those same practice routines, yet they DIDN'T execute on gamedays.

It isn't necessary to run a 3 hour practice to be successful on gameday.

Ask any coach in the league.
