I get it. I asked you a specific question though because I want to piece your argument(s) together...
I'll re-post in the Jimmy thread.
I said it a lot in the off season but I think the most underrated aspect of Kyle/Brock combo is that they are very aligned in the way they see/process the game. Obviously this isn't something I can prove, but to me, I think Brock understands why Kyle calls certain plays and when - like what Kyle is trying to expose in the defense and/or set up later.
i think they also process the game the same way and see the game similar. I'm not trying to make this a Jimmy v Brock thing but I also felt like (and I'm pretty sure it's a fact at this point lol) jimmy and Kyle were disconnected in this way. Seemed like jimmy didn't quite understand why Kyle was calling what he was calling, almost like jimmy looked at the plays in a stand-alone basis, where Brock understands that Kyle is callin plays for 10 plays down the road.
i guess the best way I can say it is that it seems to me that Jimmy approached eat play on a stand-alone basis and attacked it that way (let's just try to get positive yards instead of attacking the play in a way that will open up plays later in the game). Whereas Brock attacks the plays in more of a chess like (methodical way) with more aggression.
no idea if I'm making sense. Hahah but I really appreciate the connection between Brock and Kyle.
