the early 90's Houston Oilers: Unfulfilled Potential?
I was watching nfl network's A football life of the Houston Oilers. I already knew of the talent they had, but I didn't realize how much dysfunction there was on the team. Buddy ryan was a good defensive mind, but such a jackass, and Gibride helped utilize the talent as far as yards and pts, but running the clock and time of possession is smart too and would've helped against the Bills in that comeback loss. Coaching, chemistry and structure is huge for champtionship teams and thats what Jimmy Johsons team knew how to work together even with the big personalities, Bill Belichik, Bill walsh, etc.
It seems like under utilized talent and promise for oilers, because of the dysfunction and lack leadership from no structure and animosity from coaching staff and bad ownership. While Cowboys probably still would've beaten the Oilers, I think they might've been more competitive against Cowboys than bills. Just wondering what others thoughts are on the Oilers.
Yes, Buddy Ryan was a stubborn SOB. Confrontational and my way or the highway guy, even if it hurt his team. He talked trash about Gilbrid'e oilers offense, and picked fights, even when his defensive squad was getting beat bad in practice and training camp and never tried to make things better.
Buddy also hindered Randall Cunninghams's development as a passer in philly as he only wanted Randall to run with the ball mostly and standing in the pocket and reading defenses and film study was not important or second to cunningham running the ball in philly.
