  1. My guess its more of a combination of a lack of confidence in his receivers and Allen's patience waning due to pressure. If I don't trust my receivers to get open on a consistent basis and you see a slight opening deep, regardless of a better short pass opening up, you are going to be inclined to go deep because you want to avoid having to rely on nickeling and diming with a receiving corp that rarely makes that straightforward. Add to that his endless pressure and it recreates the younger Josh style of QBing without having the same underlying reason.
  2. Based on the pocket I'd say the throw over the middle or sides would of been difficult to keep the ball low. I see it as if he looked at Kincaid but with the pocket where it was and him not daring to scramble or else a holding call ends them he chooses the long ball hoping Hollins can make up for his earlier blunder with the intention to make sure it can't be picked easily. The one option he had was to gun it to Ty Johnson up top but it would of needed to be a timing route to a RB which isn't exactly a comfortable play. His progression looks as if both top guys weren't even on the play's initial reads however. He had a short play to Keon potentially but I can understand his hesitation to risk a pick 6.
  3. I think I'm done with Sean, he's done great with taping together defenses as well as digging us out of the ground but his crunch time coaching is something to be at awe of for all the wrong reasons. Why in God's name would they choose 3 passes out of their endzone when Josh has struggled in large part due to his receivers just not being useful in the slightest. Effectively he was telling Josh, I know that your receivers aren't getting open, and a hold can cause us to lose on a safety, and you literally just got out of the blue tent but go for a dagger from the 3..... WTF!
  4. The no advance ina fumble is only for the last 2 minutes
  5. My favorite play of the night: Allen on 2nd and 10 from the Jags 12 or so sliding well short of the 1st down and protecting himself in what was at that point a garbage time drive. Our boy has come so far in his journey to understand that while a 6th straight touchdown drive would be cool; keeping yourself safe for the next game is far more important at that point.
  6. Sounds like a good thing to do; if the entire offensive line is against trying to run a jailbreak screen against the Jets; then Joe Brady should take that into account. It also gives players a sense of ownership over their duties and play. For instance, I highly doubt Cook wants to be used as a FB for any amount of time. Plus Allen may see a dire weakness on film and want to beat that into submission versus trying to dance around it the whole game. One of Dorsey's primary issues was a lack of any competence in play call scripting. He designed very effective plays but had a terrible tendency of either overusing or underusing a category of plays. Think of the Dallas game where we ran the ball far more than we would usually however that was greatly influenced by the absurdly significant success that they had had thus far.
  7. I disagree, I don't think Kelce become a complete non-factor or anything but even marginal improvement may have given us the slight boost we needed to win the game. Kelce was quite literally wide open on general plays without him even needing much effort; Bernard would of at least gave him a challenge
  8. No, he actually was a very least passable last time around.
  9. Simmonds still needs a home right? If we can do any more cap gymnastics, sign him to a 1 year deal to keep him playing, unless he wants to retire and use the 3 S look at times to take some of coverage concerns off Dorian.
  10. Tua is a good but not great QB. He has two high end receivers that can elevate him.
  11. Frankly this could be nothing more than if Terry dropped dead, Jessica, being a pro tennis player, wouldn’t need to quit to run a football team. Plus the NFL probably would feel good about the possibility of an owner as young as Jessica taking over.
  12. We have 3 years to play with an unusual athlete with a sub 5 40 at 300lbs+ at 6’7” He could try to bulk up and be an OL, maybe be a super 6OL set guy. If he can’t bulk up he could be converted to DE and/or FB. As a 7th rounder and a free practice squad spot; I see no negative there
  13. I wonder if he can catch and play that 6th OL role but be a capable threat in the air still
  14. The nice part about this guy is we can just use that bonus practice squad slot for him and he can both give us a giant OL but fill in when needed for practoce
  15. pretty much sadly; I don't hate their existence but I don't need it to endlessly be shoved in my face.
  16. Just thought of this; Coleman is Allen's desire to avoid those ticky tack picks where our receiver just kind of flailed at the ball. He hopes Coleman will, like a wookiee, tear and arm off a DB to get the ball if need be.
  17. He's a Bill now so he's one of us!
  18. Coleman scares me because he has all the super attributes without any speed and Beane + McDermott seem to love the physical freaks when taking receivers versus creating separation. Also screams Gabe Davis replacement because blocking is a WR's main duty....
  19. Probably the 1st time I have ever felt Beane completely lost the plot.
  20. Over a full game, I’d guess most could get 1 completion thanks to the other NFL players around you. Besides that you’d likely throw more picks than completions and either get Killed by the defense or curl up in a fetal position by Drive 3
  21. The issue with trading down is the Chiefs get 1st dibs on a WR before us then.
  22. 1. Von was meant to be the one who put us over the top and showed he might be able to before his injury. It was an all-in move that backfired due to an unforeseen injury; not his age or skill. Neutral 2. It was overpay, but he was able to get him to take a pay cut this year. Bad 3. Diggs extension, was a risky venture but was needed for cap space. One can't look at a contract in a vacuum; if we didn't extend him we likely can't sign guys like Leonard Floyd who were contributors to the roster. Neutral 4. His high draft picks haven't all panned out but he has hit on multiple lower round guys. Bad to Neutral I'll finish this after I drive home
  23. Diggs was a great player but was coming close to becoming a cap nightmare and had been slowly getting more troublesome with off the field drama His happy go lucky response to his drop against KC this year versus he demonstrative anger he at Allen for missing him last year against Cinci always rubbed me the wrong way seeing as Allen just moved on to the next play both times.
  24. If this is true I hope he burns in hell, or I guess Texan mediocrity.
