What do these guys do?
I've never heard of them before, or just didn't pay any attention, and we hired a new QC guy for offense (yea, good luck) and you guys just hired Nixon for the ST... wtf do they do?
They control the quality. Or they provide quality control.
They make sure the quality is under control. You just can't have out of control quality in the NFL.
OK- so that's 3 of us that don't know.

We should hire a People That Don't Know Quality Control guy to make sure we don't know in controlled amounts of quality.
they organize and watch game tape mostly
they do a lot of statistical anaylization as well

In that case, can we please hire Jaws to do some quality control for Andy Reid?
Eagles transactions:
02/20/2007 James Urban named Offensive Assistant/Quality Control Coach
02/20/2007 Bill Shuey named Defensive Assistant/Quality Control Coach
03/01/2007 Jeff Nixon named Special Teams Quality Control Coach
I'll assume that any lack of quality displayed next season reflects solely on them.

Ahh, thank you.
Basically a bullshtein job.
Like standup philosopher.

Ah, no.
I have a friend who does this for a professional team, and not only is it a sick job in terms of coolness, but the hours are ridiculous.
Far from bullshtein.
Alright then...if you have a friend who does this then do us all a favor and get him to write a paragraph or two about what he actually does. Or get him to describe it to you in such a way that you can write a paragraph or two. What does he do all day? What influence does he have? Etc.
Until someone can explain this bullshtein title, it sounds to me like the guy my corporate empoyer had whose title was Director of Premiumization Strategy. In other words, utter crap.
die hard is correct in that the hours are outrageous...and i think these people are somewhat valuable...
that being said a monkey could do their job

the hours are outrageous for powerpoint monkeys in NYC corporate life. big goddamned deal.
what does the cat actually do??
calm down...no one is saying they are close on a cure for aids
But they can break down the film on scientists all over the world working on a cure for AIDS. They'll have it ready for you in the morning.
fair enough...but the title is ludicrous enough, and also commone enough, that if we got a dude here who can actually explain what that shtein mean, then I'd love to hear it.
because it sounds like a fleshpop sucker title if ever I heard one
Analyzing game tape & opponents, understanding trends & player weaknesses and strengths, etc.
The guy has a distinct affect on players playing time because he understands matchups. Not sure where the bullshtein part comes in. Its a whole lot more than hitting a rewind a fast forward button.
The bullshtein part comes from the bullshtein title.
So what you're telling me is that this cat is the guy who studies game tape, and says this player tends this, that player tends that, and this intelligence is then used by coaches to say who is double teamed, and who isn't? etc.
so we're talking about a guy who spends 110 hours a week at work, 80 of them watching tape and taking notes and 30 of them giving reports to a HC/OC/DC, who then relies on this stuff to make assignments?
what this has to do with quality control, I don't understand, but....whatever
I could care less what the title on his business card states, but I told you what the guy does and it seems like you understand.
Is the title bullshtein? Maybe. Is the job? No shot.

dont get it twisted...reid and the other coaches watch more film than these guys...the qc coaches will take instructions and look for certain things at the direction of the coaches and coordinators...these guys are looking for what they are told...not freelancing and making their own determinations on schemes and stuff...otherwise theyd be coaches and not video grunts
a team could easily survive without any qc coaches and back in the day they didnt exist...but that doesnt mean their job is bullshtein....i agree tho that the job title is a curious one
you haven't said much, Die Hard. But alright, I'll drop it.
Quality Control is a really good album by Jurassic 5.
Can we close this thread now?
The End of Days is surely upon us. I agree with Dio.
And judging from the various tidbit definitions, it sounds like they do the same shtein 15 other people do.
When training camp rolls around, since Dave will know, I will make it my mission to get to the bottom of this. :-D
If I remember...
I'd take one of those jobs in a heartbeat though. That's the way to get your foot in the door to a better gig.
No doubt. Most of us would, I'm sure.

This is the only definition of the role I can accept to far, and if that's all it is, then it's every bit the piece of bullshtein I thought it was.

Once the game plan is established, the quality control guy garnishes it with an "Approved by Inspector 12" sticker.
