Today, many Coryell offenses still reduce the use a tight end, except in the red zone,[citation needed]. After winning 104 games with the Aztecs, Coryell was hired to become the head coach of the St Louis Cardinals in 1973. As one of my projects for Fantasy Data this year, I wanted to take a look at every offense in the NFL and determine the type of offense they run so I could know what to expect from certain players within the offenses to help me make wise Draft and DFS decisions this year.

However, despite having one of the NFL's most talented rosters, Turner was never able to guide the Chargers to the Super Bowl. Gerald Everett came over from the Rams with knowledge of the system, and it sounds like Eskridge will play a lot as a rookie in 3 WR sets. Additionally, St. Louis's offensive line was strong, anchored by multiple-time Pro Bowler and fellow Hall of Famer Orlando Pace.

Scheme: Smith comes from the LaFleur/McVay/Shanahan WCO tree.

Norv Turner, a former Washington Redskins and San Diego Chargers head coach, and offensive coordinator for many NFL teams (most notably for the Dallas Cowboys during the early 1990s), also implemented a version of the Coryell style of offense.

He runs a modified WCO (to the point he does not consider it WCO anymore) where the run game is emphasized and the passing game is used as an extension of the run game in several facets. Martz and the Rams had six that we scouted along with pre-snap tips. Share.

It will be interesting what 28 year old Mike Davis can do in this offense behind an OL returning 3 solid starters (4 returning starters total), with a 3rd round rookie taking over at LG. The offense used by Mike Shanahan in Denver and later Washington has evolved and become all the rage in the NFL today. Skill position turnover was limited to Dede Westbrook coming in to replace Kyle Rudolph (though not directly by position).

After Coryell arrived in the NFL from jobs with college football teams, he set the league on its ear with his passing offenses. [6] The passing game was based on timing and rhythm, and coaching the system required a lot of repetition. Coryell also asked his tight ends to run routes that receivers usually run, as opposed to the dig and hitch routes most tight ends exclusively ran. CAR acquired a couple of Bradys guys by drafting Terrace Marshall in Rd2 and signing Dan Arnold who was in NO w/ Brady. Frank Pollack was hired to be the run game coordinator. Later on, Zampese became the offensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Rams in the late 80s, where he taught the tenets of the Coryell offense to his wide receivers coach, Norv Turner. Personnel Preferences: Personnel usage last year was mostly 11 and 12, using 12 higher than league average and 11 a little less. Whereas most offenses used the pass play to pick up bigger chunks of yards than a run play could in necessary situations, such as third and long, Coryell began to use the pass as the primary method of moving the ball. A hamstring injury wiped out his rookie year. Scheme: Reich comes from Whisenhunt & Pederson staffs. With the new defensive rules limiting contact to near the line of scrimmage, receivers in motion would be virtually impossible to jam.

Mike Martz was the offensive wizard behind The Greatest Show on Turf in the late 90s and early 2000s, Kurt Warner's best years as a QB. If healthy, hell be the third wheel with Taylor and Hines. The skill positions had little turnover (Randall Cobb returns - trusted vet for Rodgers) and the group could be expected to produce similar numbers as last year. Martz did modify his scheme at Cutler's behest and the offense did very, very well without a true #1 receiver (or #2 for that matter) on the team. The Cowboys ranked 11th in offense, averaging 354.9 yards and 27.4 points though those numbers jumped to 372.8 and 30 in Prescott's 12 starts.

Robinson had more than150 targets each of the last two years (9.8/g). Marc Bulger for no gain.

Play Caller/Tenure: Kellen Moore (OC): Spent the last 4yrs in a coaching capacity with DAL, with the last 2 being the Play Caller/OC. Scheme: Modified WCO scheme, lots of spread 11 personnel, pre-snap motion, Play Action, RPOs, and use of zone blocking in the run game.

Play Caller/Tenure: Matt LaFleur (HC) - 2yrs as GB HC and play-caller; 4yrs total as an OC; 3yrs total as a play-caller. [12] It is also harder for a defender to cover if he has to change direction with the receiver instead of squaring up and getting set before a play. Putting the players in motion also had the advantage of allowing the quarterback to determine pre-snap if the defense would be playing zone or man-to-man defense. Finally we decided its crazy that we can win games by throwing the ball without the best personnel. You look around the NFL now, and so many teams are running a version of the Coryell offense. The offensive coordinator for the eventual Super Bowl-champion team was Mike Martz, and following the team's triumph, he would take over as the Rams head coach, leading the team to another Super Bowl appearance during his time at the helm. Counter Weak: FB aligned tight to the line of scrimmage 4. This involved a lot of different routes that receivers could run and Coryell placed an emphasis on timing with these routes, asking quarterbacks to throw to an open spot and have the receiver run into that path after the ball was thrown. Its been reported that they are using some concepts from the Erhardt-Perkins offense, but much of that is likely centered around terminology more than underlying philosophy. Over Garretts time running this offense, he has changed a lot with his scheme, and thats something well be taking a look at next, as it will help inform us on what Moores version of the offense might look like. The top 4 WRs can all be good but will make any 1 hard to breakout. The Martz variant favored an elusive feature back who can catch the ball, such as Hall of Famer Marshall Faulk, over the power runners the Turner scheme prefers. Coryell implemented his offensive system and quickly found success, going 42-27-1 in five seasons there. Ex-Seahawks fall into NFL topics. Zeke looks quicker and Tony Pollard getting reps as a receiver. Personnel Preferences: New England ran the fewest plays in the league from 12 personnel last year with only 22 plays, 2% of their total offense compared to the NFL average of 20%. An athletic TE that can run WR-type routes is often featured, guys like Kellen Winslow, Antonio Gates, and Greg Olsen for example.

Martz credited both his influences on his variation of the offensive system and his overall coaching philosophy to Don Coryell. Scheme: Taylor is from the Jon Gruden/Sean Payton tree of WCO. The Shanahan offense is derived from the West Coast offense made famous by Bill Walsh. His offenses tend to include a strong offensive line, a strong running game, a #1 WR who can stretch the field and catch jump balls in the end-zone, a good receiving TE to attack the space the WRs create in the middle of the field and a FB who fills the role of a lead blocker and a final option as an outlet receiver.

Martz's preferred offensive system, nicknamed " Air Coryell " for its emphasis on defense-stretching pass plays, wasn't new; as the name implied, the system was first developed by Coryell in the 1960s at San Diego State, and later used to great effect at the NFL level by the Chargers of the early '80s.

Advertisement Afterwards, Turner became the head coach of the Washington Redskins and Zampese replaced him in Dallas. Over the summer, he couldn't help but criticize Fields and the Bears' offense. Norv Turner also owns the rather dubious distinction of having the most career wins of any NFL head coach with a career losing record, compiling an overall record of 118-126-1 (.484), regular season and playoff games combined. Shanahan's offense hands the ball off and creates the space as the ball carrier advances toward the sideline until they find the openning. In American football, Air Coryell is the offensive scheme and philosophy developed by former San Diego Chargers coach Don Coryell. Consequently, the Saunders system does not score as many points as the Martz system. In the end, the Cowboys stayed in-house and promoted quarterbacks coach Kellen Moore to offensive coordinator, which seems to strongly suggest that Dallas believes it has the correct offensive scheme in place, but they just want a new play-caller to mix in some creativity and unpredictability. Currently, this system is used (or will be used) by Kyle Shanahan (SF), Sean McVay (LAR), Matt LaFleur (GB), Kevin Stefanski (CLE), Arthur Smith (ATL), Shane Waldron (SEA), Klint Kubiak (MIN) (Klint is another child of a founder of this offense), Todd Downing (TEN), Mike LaFleur (NYJ), and possibly Matt Canada (PIT) if he survives past Big Ben's tenure in Pittsburgh. They used 10 personnel on 47 plays (5%) which was the 4. The Anthony Miller trade could add targets for Allen Robinson and Darnell Mooney. It has a reputation of being a run-heavy offense that uses the run to set up the play-action passing game. DJ Moore and Robby Anderson will thrive. Additional Notes: Derek Carrs 7.9 YPA each of the last 2 years are the two highest for a Gruden QB ever (previous high was 7.8). Expect more motion with him to compensate for a switch to more 11 than 12 to create mismatches. Players are schemed open/into space when they get the ball. Personnel Preferences: 88% of offense was 11 (66%) or 12 (22%) personnel. Play Caller/Tenure: Joe Brady (OC) - 1yr as CAR OC; previous NFL experience was as an Offensive Assistant in NO (2017-18). On any play he may carry the ball, lead block or pass block, play as a wide receiver, or run a tight end route. Marlon Mack coming off an Achilles injury.
