They'll yell at you, whereas Reid/Holmgren will constantly ask you "why did you do that?"
The other interesting thing is him getting dressed down by Holmgren. As I've said before, I prefer Holmgren to Reid and I think you see why. Reid is organized, but seems loose at times. Might explain game management issues and I've wondered at times if McNabb and Vick play too loose and lacked some intensity. When you watch Holmgren's Sound FX, you see a different type of coach. Holmgren is a more direct and down to business version of Reid. And you see that not only in the QB play, but in the QBs he picks.
Good stuff. Our players are going to play much sounder football. And Eagles players always play hard and technically sound football. Players are going to love Reid.
