Olave or Waddle...anything else is just repeating previous mistakes. And it still chaps my ass to think all Beane would've had to give Seattle is a 2nd round pick for DK....let that sink in when you're thinking about TJ Sanders.
We'll see how accurately and effectively they enforce these new rule changes. They haven't exactly gotten the hip drop tackle right. But yes the NFL trend continues toward less violence, physicality and eventually flag football.
Not only do we spend all this cap money on lower to mid tier players, but then we have no clue how to incorporate them into our offense. So as far as money goes, everybody is eating.....they're just not producing.
Yeah maybe we beat NE but I don't see this team going beyond 10 wins. Too much mediocrity on this roster. Too many soft injury prone players. Too much pressure on Josh demanding that he "does it all". No one too blame but our beloved McB.
That still doesn't excuse Brady for having no answer to the constant blitz or pulling Cook out on 3rd down. We're finding out that both Brady & Babich are not great making in game adjustments on the fly. We don't have hot reads embedded in this offense. If I'm a DC, I'm blitzing Josh the rest of the season.
The only way I see this team turning around this start is to trade for Chris Olave. Pray Hairston and Hoecht can have an impact. And the coaches have to be willing to make substantial adjustments to both offense & defense. And if all that wasn't enough, the injuries must settle down.
What's disgusting is Beane hit on only 1 serviceable player (Walker) out of 16 over the span of 2 full drafts. Beane and his clown show scouts are not long for this team.
Close your eyes and imagine a team where Andy Reid is Josh's HC. All the motion, misdirection, speed receivers. It's a terrifying thought to think how dominant he'd be. Now open your eyes and stare at McD clapping...🤮.
Well if that's the case then Josh screwed up. Josh needs speed and playmaking. He desperately needs someone who can stretch the field like Olave. Coleman's skillset diminishes with each week.
His personality (the good soldier) keeps him from ever complaining or playing hardball. I'm sure he's incredibly frustrated seeing Cook come off the field or wrs incapable of separation. I guarantee you it's grating on him. He's a human being, sick and tired of waiting for McB to help him either on offense or defense.
There's literally only 1 organization in all of the NFL we can draw players from (Carolina). All because these guys can't evaluate talent beyond their "familiarity" boundaries. That has got to be the sorriest strategy I've ever seen.
.....then why did this knucklehead hand pick Beane to be his GM? I think Andy knew a long time ago Sean's deficiencies in evaluating assistants and players. This mess is equally on both of them.
