lol. Not only was he not great, but he was bad. The disconnect is that one group is instantly triggered every time someone puts even an ounce of blame on 17. The OL sucked, we were missing our 2 best route runners, we’ve forgotten about throwing the ball to James Cook and kept him off the field at crucial times. And Josh sucked partially due to all the above. You didn’t understand my post i agree. I think our DL has been our best unit on D by far. I agree- the secondary is trash and the safeties are even worse. our vaunted DB whisperer seems to be losing his abilities.

And Josh played his worst game in over a year because he couldn’t decipher the blitzes well enough and made poor decisions throughout.

Crazy how this seems to be the case 9/10 times we blitz lol. I mean, that polar bear is white, you know what I mean?

The falcons d is bigger and more physical? 🤦🏻‍♂️

Agreed. I want to say good bye to McDermotts defense. It’s as if it can only function with a good pass rush, 2 great coverage LBers, 2 good corners and 2 all pro safeties…..

While I thought the ball could’ve had slightly better placement. I place the majority of the incompletion on Shakir. I think some others (even on this team) could’ve made the play. he did play like crap. It’s on the QB to recognize and deal with the blitz. He failed miserably in that regard….vs a team that led the league in blitzes. Part on Brady too.

💯 I saw plenty of film that showed he made bad decisions with the ball, held the ball and threw a handful of bad passes.

No, time to admit when he plays like crap. End of story. but nooooooooo…… Josh never plays bad 👌

I saw plenty on tape. I don’t have the all 22 so I can’t post any. You have the all 22 and didn’t see any I assume? you don’t have to compare anything to what penix was seeing. That has nothing to do with Josh playing a poor game.

And McD doesn’t even call it very well while also being the HC from my recollection

I agree- our DL hasn’t been much of a problem and it should continue to improve. Now we just need a DC, DBs and LBs that can cover and stop the run.

Again- avoiding the question by asking another question. What does that have to do with my question? It doesn’t matter if we know or not. I think McD calling plays on D gives us a better chance of winning vs any team. That’s what matters….not whether or not if we know who’s calling plays

We could move the football on the ground just fine. 5 yards a carry on the game. Our problem was passing. The WR unit is Beanes fault for sure. But Monday night, the unit that he decided to invest more heavily on, the offensive line gave up a 44% pass rush win percentage; our best pass catcher and most heavily invested in playmaker was out with an oblique injury; our biggest investment at WR this offseason had 2 catches for 60 yards on 6 snaps before getting injured. Our 2 best route runners out of the game, our offensive line getting beat and our QB not processing fast enough to move the chains. I agree that Beane is to blame for the current state of our WRs, but I don’t think that he was the reason our offense was so bad. It wasn’t just the WRs not getting open. side note- I really hope Palmers injury isn’t too bad. He was about to have himself a day before his injury. Imo, he’s clearly our best outside WR and we should be making getting him the ball a priority. If he fails when given the opportunity, at least we gave it a try and on to the next plan. have you watched him run routes in the all 22? I think he’s real smooth and his transitions into cuts seem effortless for a guy his size. Thoughts on him being our go to WR? Or do you think the top 20 type corners will swallow him up?

That’s not what we’re talking about. Stay on topic. Babich sucks. We all know that by now. Would you prefer Babich call plays bs KC in the playoffs or McD? Because it’s likely going to be one of them unless they give Nielsen the headset
