is that it has come to a Boudreau v Mack competition. I love Mack for what he did with the Rams. He is a good speaker, intelligent and appears very respectable. But if you had Boudreau and then Mack coach (teach) a certain O lineman there would be no absolute way you could know beforehand who would do a better job. And even if the Boudreau coached player did better in actual play you would never know how much influence Mack had in the performance. And the same in reverse. And this business about "technique" seems baseless. No way a professional football coach making the money Boudreau makes does not teach technique. The only possible way out of this would be for Boudreau to retire and Mack become O line coach and have an O lineman who also played under Boudreau actually play better and explain that he is doing so because Mack is teaching him technique and Boudreau did not. That won't happen so if you want to continue going round and round and round on this subject-well I guess that's what message board are for-but IMO it's still silly stuff. Moreover it becomes a personality clash between posters and not about the real subject -which cannot be resolved for the above reason.
