also during the singing of the national anthem he always had our team lined up proper showing respect whereas most other teams would move around fidgeting and getting ready to play. i believe he got that from Grant.

And we've neglected to mention how he works with the rest of the coaching staff. Trestman put in a very complex offensive scheme with Scott Milanovich, his young OC. Just imagine what an creative mind can do with an extra man, a yard off the ball, a big field and all that motion. The previous article mentioned Green and Richardson switching around, but did't mention that when they hit the line of scrimmage, they'd change their routes on the fly based on what the defence was doing and AC was expected to see the same thing and deliver the ball. Trestman and Milanovich created an offence that was a nightmare to scheme a defence.
Milanovich went on to head coach the Argonauts last year. The Argos sound like the Bears, great D, dangerous special teams, but pathetic on offence. Their GM brought in Scott from Montreal and Ricky Ray as QB. The first part of the season was tough as Toronto tried to learn Milanovich's complex schemes. They hit their stride mid season and ended up winning the 100th Grey Cup, at home, in Toronto. Expect the same pattern in Chicago.
On the one hand, I'm sure Trestman was gritting his teeth at not hoisting the cup, but on the other hand, he got to watch his former OC lift it. Someone who undoubtedly benefited from his tutelage.
I've seen a couple people here comment that they aren't used to seeing a bears coach throw challenge flag which is going to change with Trestman, he loves throwing that challenge flag to the point where I've seen him occasionally take a delay of game penalty for either challenging a play that couldn't be challenged or because he tried to challenge a play after using up his challenges.
Im not sure whether this is because of the CFL only having 3 downs or if it is something he plans to carry over into the NFL but Id expect to see Forte's receiving yards go up because Trestman wasn't afraid to use his RB as a receiver to the point where we often had a running back that came close to having both 1000 yards on the ground and another 1000 yards in the air but got stopped just short of the 1000 receiving yards.
Part of how the offensive line improved so quickly under Trestman was the timing reliant offensive passing game he used where the ball was out of our QB's hands before any kind of blitz could get to him and made sure that the running back was a very good blocker so that if there was a blitz it got recognized a picked up quickly. Plus Calvillo was given free reign to call audible based on what he saw at the line of scrimmage which I expect a veteran QB like Cutler will enjoy
Another small thing to expect from Trestman the single season kinda cheesy motto that he drills into players from the beginning of training camp. The players seemed to really buy into it and it stopped them from getting complacent from season to season.
Overall Id say Trestman and the bears are a match made in heaven Im really sad to see him go but he is going to become a very popular guy in Chicago
Here's a few stuff you can expect from your offence;
It has been highly mediatized that Coach Trestman passes a lot. Media and fans would sometimes criticize him for passing too much when the Als were winning. But one thing that is often neglected is the amount of screen passes, and swing passes he would call. He's big on the "Three step drop, go through your progressions, if there's nothing, dump it to the running back". It was Montreal's trademark. You can't sack a QB when the ball is out of his hands after 4 seconds.
Coach T is huge on the O-Line. He also loves having a complete RB. Thank god you guys don't have to wrry about that with Forte. If your back can't block, he won't play for the Chicago Bears. Trestman loves using his RB as an extra blocker, often blocking, and if nothing is there after the three step drops, finds a pocket and picks up what he can get [If the QB throws him the dump ball].
Only negative thing about Trestman is the defensive side of the game. When the ALS had the best defensive players in the league [When he first arrived], they consequently had the best defense in the league. But most recently, hes had an "Average" defense. Yes his D-Coords have left, but its not an excuse. The only reason Montreal were so successfull in the last 2 years were because the offence was so good that it would compensate for the lack of defense. He needs to bring a experienced NFL D-Coord that he can rely on.
He also loves his slot backs. I reckon in the NFL it would be route-running tight-ends. The only difference us that they don't block (Slot Backs). I wouldn't be surprised to see Coach Trestman bring either SJ Green or Jamel Richardson to the Bears so that he can use them in passing downs as tight ends.
Also will be interesting to see if Trestman brings over Chad Owen's, the CFL's Devin Hester, to have a two-headed monster for special teams. I got a feeling he will invite a couple of CFL Players to the camp.
In 2011 his defence was ravaged with injuries and while 2012 was not the model of consistency it did produce a more agressive sack-oriented style defence akin to the nfl. in 2009-10 he made due with shorter players who had speed but then had to beef up as other teams adjusted.
I'm going to assume this were a sb joke. If not, I imagine Trestman and Emery have 2 of the worst cases of ocd ever, lol.Quote:
