Sad isn’t it. We’ve fallen to a qbing level below post injury Matt nichols. Arbuckle would be an upgrade for us. Hes had no running game and a worse ol yet still done more.

I’d argue Zach is more limited. If he isn’t connecting on bombs consistently, which has only happened once this year and 2-3 times in the last year and a half, he can’t run any offence. We see his yards per attempt plummet to the depths. Atleast strevy is capable of running designed fast tempo timing stuff. He just isn’t capable of improving if that first look isn’t good. Zach needs big guys who can dominate 50/50 tosses down field. Strevy can succeed with a wider variety of wr types. It’s a bad position though, we don’t have the pieces or the system to support either.

It’s a cyclical problem. We don’t recruit as well as during an all time run of talent, we ride too long with old guys soo we don’t develop the talent we do bring in, and the level of play devolves very quickly. You aren’t going to have a generational talent gap very often. But you should expect a top front office to find more turn key gems. IMO, we’ve seen some tremendous talent the last 3 camps at dt, lber, wr, rb, and db. We’ve also had 2 excellent drafts in a row. The job we’ve done in recognizing, and developing those guys while optimizing rosters is poor. The quality of job we’ve done at bringing in league vets at spots we don’t recruit well, and replacing top talent is also poor. I’ll note, the wr talent the last two years has been much worse in camp. Prior to that we had some very good wr groups.

I kinda get not pulling a qb in a game you’re winning, but I think that kind of ballsy move would send a perfect message to our locker room young and old. Perform, or be replaced. No exceptions. I would’ve pulled both strevy and zach in each guys last game. More than one for zach. I’m not giving up on strevy yet. But I’m not willing to bank a season on him either. At this point, you gotta make a hard decision. Is Wilson/Chase a future starter? If you’re not sure ditch one. See if any one is willing to trade a vet qb young or old. Strev needs to be pushed and so does zach. If not, open the bank and bring in some one who can step up quickly. UFL, nfl back up when the cuts hit etc.

I don’t know what to expect from a “healthy” ol at this point. We’ve had soo much turn over and it’s been soo long it’ll take forever for un healthy guys to get the rust off get their wind back and get back into a groove. Im encouraged by flashes from Randolph, Vanterpool, and Lofton. Lofton came back much better than I expected. At this point im hoping vanterpool gets healthy, goes back in at G, Lofton stays at LT, and rando at rt. My biggest hope for improvement is some how we see through Kola who suddenly can’t even snap reliably. Give me Eli or even Wallace at C. Let a unit like that play together for a month. Maybe Bryant is 100% for the stretch run that’d be great. I don’t want to see him run out at a fractional power. even at 100% he hasn’t been great this year. We are part way through the growing pains with guys like Wallace, Lofton, Randolph, and vanterpool. May as well see how far they can grow before the stretch run.

Imo, next to hc and OC is the hardest coaching job come game day. Even the prep work during the week is massive. If you’re a hc who doesn’t have a heavy hand in o or d, OC is likely harder. Or being an oc with a struggling qb. Hard, hard job. It also has one of the shortest shelf life’s. I would’ve expected our O to be much further along at this point, especially with Jackson as the qb coach. Hogan has had plenty of adversity, I’d be willing to give him more grace, if he had shown any flashes at all. But the problems are deep and the bright spots nearly none existent.

Yeah the talk was about grooming him for that role. Clearly we did **** all in coaching him since he twice didn’t know what his responsibilities were when it’s kicked shallow and to his side. Reality is if you are gonna break into this league as an imp rb, or if you’re going to roster one, they need maximum versatility. And rb is a spot with a lot of the build in tools to do the extra jobs. Plus we’ve literally done this before. With Flanders, Augustine, gmc etc. The last imp wr around here needs to have the ability to run sweeps etc too. End of the day it’s the ocs job to put the players in position to get the ball in their hands and make plays. Who do you want to be that guy, Corcoran, Mitchell, and Cooley. You can run Cooley out of the back field, tight etc and have him make easy catches, motion for sweeps and hand offs, and let him make plays. Or, you can let Mitchell do what we paid him to do. Or you can put out Corcoran who can’t block, get open, or run, but he can catch.

Speed, and tremendous upper body power. Reminds me a lot of Gavin walls.

Vaval has been among the league leaders in kr and pr average actually. Productivity hasn’t really been the issue.

We also dressed Cobb not only to not use him on O, but chose to use Cooley as the 2nd kr instead of him. Just the best roster management possible.

Only thing I could think is he’s a well liked joker type, but just doesn’t take things serious enough. Maybe doesn’t put in the effort with film study and practice, maybe wings his snaps and expects his talent/athleticism to carry. Like manziel. Just a possibility.

Kola first. Yeah even if we get Wilson back we still aren’t half way to fixing our wr core.

Missing every threat really. Deep threat, big possession guy who can win 50/50s, even yac guy. we got all the filler and no steak or potatoes.

Had him with a TFL too. Why not both? Atleast we have the answer in Jackson. Qb, we are in trouble.

Demski had 7 touches for 97 yards. 5 of those touches got us first downs, 1/3 of all our first downs. 4 of those were gains of 10 or more yards. 15 yards per run, 13.4 per catch. Caught every pass thrown his way. Wasn’t stopped short on 2nd down on any of his touches. Maybe maybe not, but I don’t think it’s a pick if it’s to him. Hes not so easy to moss over the top.

Gonna rip my self a new ass mid game on here if that happens. And when he’s paired with guys who keep double teams off him

You called it. No Demski, no win imo.

1 vaval. 243 yards 2 tds monster game 2 DL. Wj person vaughters adams had a huge game tons of pressure knock downs and stops. 3 Demski he carried the offence hh Jones massive pick block of the game first, strev getting down field for Brady and second big kev on the screen pass to sterns. Honorable mentions, Lofton, Randolph, sterns, nichols, griffin, return and cover team. Dishonourable mentions, offensive roster, hogan, strev, Cooley, and bonds.

Vaval has 243 return yards. Our total offensive our put for yards is 265

I don’t see dpi

Vaughters adams person wj dl The blue meanies good grief we could’ve had this all year

Atleast Fajardo can spin in one direction room and pick up a first

Wow tf was that Strev

Sterns makes Brady look like Hardrick

No longer called it seems
