I put this in the Cro thread, but wanted to give it it's own. I find it pretty amazing that twice in this video Bowles tells his players exactly what's going to happen just before the play. First when Cro gets beat for the TD, and second on William's INT.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Todd Bowles arrived in New York with a reputation for being a smart defensive coach. He evidently had a strong grasp of the Cleveland Browns' tendencies because he called out two of the biggest plays in last Sunday's game before they happened.
Moments before Travis Benjamin beat Antonio Cromartie on a 54-yard touchdown reception, Bowles -- mic'd up by NFL Films -- recognized what was about to occur.
"Out-and-up, Cro! Out-and-up, Cro!" Bowles screamed at the veteran corner, who was positioned in front of the Jets' sideline.
Obviously, Bowles' prescient observation didn't help. Benjamin ran a double move -- more stop-and-go than out-and-up -- but the premise was the same. He went deep, beating Cromartie easily. Bowles' reaction? An exaggerated shoulder slump.
Later, in the third quarter, Bowles did it again.
"Coming at you, Marcus," he yelled to cornerback Marcus Williams on a third down from the Browns' 37.
Sure enough, Johnny Manziel came at Williams, who responded with an interception, one of five takeaways by the Jets.

I read on my commute this morning that he has been doing this for a while, essentially since he began coaching. Perhaps its his insight as a former safety, but he has on multiple occasions, including with the Cardinals as the DC, been able to anticipate where the play it going based on formations, movement, etc. He has some absurd record for turnovers as a coach.
Rex was a defensive whiz up front, but relied on elite man coverage to mask any backfield flaws and had difficulty developing corners i.e. everyone's favorite Kyle Burnt Toast Wilson.
Bowles also appears to be an above average defensive coach and perhaps a better overall coach. While Rex was elite up front, we may be seeing a team that performs elite all over, front, back, and penalties wise. Listening to his clips from the soundbite reel was confidence building.

From someone who has never played football at the professional level, how far does a coach's voice actually travel from the sideline onto the field? (And in equestrian eventing, if you get any unauthorized assistance from your coach, or anyone from that matter, you are DQ'd)

Yeah man, you know what? Windows "updated" (not that 10 bullshit) and they did away with/hid the .mp4 adresses and you can't find them. But maybe I can use some of these tips and replace the .jpg and other crap with 5000.mp4. this is good to know tho.

Have you tried the second method? A windows update should have nothing to do with an HTML page source in a web browser

----- How to post a video from NFL.com or any NFL affiliated site
There are two methods depending on the page and the player that they're using, the second is slightly more complex
Method One:
1. We'll use this page an example (http://www.newyorkjets.com/videos/videos/JetLife-Get-to-Know-the-Bearded-Man/981a9aa4-75ab-45fd-83d4-91d060792c6d)
2. Right click anywhere on the page (not the video) and click View Page Source (can also go to the 'View' drop down, 'Developer' and find it from there)
3. Search for "mp4" on the page source
4. Copy the full link
5. Change the 500k if you want to change your resolution (5000k is full HD)
6. Use the 'Insert Video' tool to insert your video
Method Two:
1. So on some other NFL.com pages (http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-films-sound-efx/0ap3000000532238/Sound-FX-Todd-Bowles) you'll notice that if you View Page Source and search for 'mp4' nothing will come up. They're using a different player for this video. This is slightly harder, though not impossible, to extract
2. On Chrome (Firefox can do this too but a different method) open the page with the video but DO NOT BEGIN PLAYING THE VIDEO YET. This will not work if the video has started playing
3. Open Developer Tools (found in the view toolbar)
4. Click on the Network tab
5. Begin playing the video
6. A bunch of gibberish is going to pop up now that we don't care about. Sort by type and find the one path that is type 'video'
7. Right below the path under the 'Headers' tab look under 'General' for the 'Request URL'. Copy this entire URL
8. All the URLs will be in this same format. You're going to have to do some editing here.
11. Replace the 'vod.hstream' at the beginning of the link with the letter 'a'
12. Use the 'Insert Video' tool to insert your video
All of this probably seems complicated at first glance but its just a series of steps and knowing where to look - takes 10 seconds to get your link once you know what you're looking for. Alternatively newyorkjetshampur.com/post/113808
Thanks jcappy, I have trouble with youtube sometimes so maybe this will help.
Mods, how about creating a sticky "How to" thread?
jcappy, is there a way to easily post pictures without first uploading them to photobucket? That's the only way I can get them to show up.

jcappy, is there a way to easily post pictures without first uploading them to photobucket? That's the only way I can get them to show up.
If they're already online you can just copy the link of the photo - right click the photo and Copy Image URL then copy the link into the Insert Image tool on the forum.
If it's on your computer then yeah, upload it to something like photobucket (I use Imgur) and just copy that URL. Has to be a web URL, can't be a local image.
