What Makes A Coach So Great???
Just a question that's been on my mind..I believe one thing that makes a coach great is that he can make due with the players he has to work with and make it work...I still think Brian Billick did just this when he became coach for the Ravens ...We had a great defense, but our offense was pretty offensive Tell me what you think

That's right, I forgot about that.
And we also could have ended up with George Seifert or Chris Palmer as head coach. Look what they've done in the years that Coach B. has been here.She had me at "Hell, NO!"

Billick is not an exceptional Xs and Os coach, but the man is an awesome motivator and leader of men. He's really good at getting his players to play hard, although the past two years haven't necessarily reflected that. Billick seems to be refocused, less involved with the media, and ready to bring this team back to form.

The short list:
1. Adjusting to adversity
2. Picking a very good supporting staff
3. Player development
4. Discipline
5. Knowing his own limitations
