Real McClappy

He already committed to that one read due to that D player 2 feet away?

No doubt! No Haush = No playoffs that year.

All of this is spot on. These are not over reactions after a bad loss either. This is the flat out truth coaching decisions that were made today. We got out coached by Freddie Kitchens for &%#$ sake.

Agree but this falls on McD as well. McD knows the D and O game plan going into every game. How in the holy hell can a coach look at a teams weakness and not even try to exploit it? How can a HC and OC not understand that a solid running game is a developing QB's best friend?

I'm not so sure on that alone. I think high draft picks are still on the Bubble as well that could affect or impact Beane and McD going forward. Edmunds looks all pro one play and HS player the next. I pray he gets more consistent. Oliver is a huge concern for me as well. I'm not sure what's going on after today. I seen him on the field 1 time today.

Haush $$$ Is the exact player you describe we thought we had. It's sucks that it's happening right now but it is. I hope he turns it around.

The premise of the thread is good. However, give Josh a consistent running game to take the early pressure off his shoulders. Almost all top QB's of the recent era had strong running games while or during QB development 2-3 year mark. We all want this juggernaut "modern day" NFL pass happy team but with our current players and Josh's raw ability he needs some more support to take pressure off.

True but Kyle being a 5th rounder offsets that I think. I guess my expectations are too high. I expect a top 10 draft pick to immediately step in and be a impact player for our D. I'm probably being way to critical. I typically support giving the player time but this just feels off after the last couple weeks.

Yeah FO - Fixed. I have no problems with Ford he is playing and developing.

This is most likely what is going down. This is a really bad look for our FO, aside from the QB position you don't draft 1st rd D lineman as development player. Is he a bust or what? if not he needs to play. Should have drafted Metcalf.

Instead of making a new thread will keep this going. He didn't even register a tackle today and only played like 1/3rd the D snaps last week. I seen him on the field once today on the crazy 50 play goal line stance. Is he injured? In the dog house? Coaching giving up on him? I'm "concerned" at this point. I would love to here some insight from anybody or McD on this 1st rd pick.

Agreed, I think our run line protection is ranked like 3rd in the league. Why can't we play to our strengths? Mind boggling......

truth

The game we rushed the Ball over 40 times for over 200yds? Barkley was 15-25 232yds and 2 TDS. Carefull what you wish for. Daboll actually ran the ball then. Running Devin 8 times against the 30th ranked rushing D is absolutely inexcusable.

So give up on Allen? He has demonstrated time and time again he can move the chains short and intermediate. If we can actually establish a run game like most teams and be able to execute play action and screens things would look a lot different IMO All the blame is not on Allen. If the FO decides to go a different direction that's on them. I'm still supporting JA even if he wasn't my first choice. Hell, my arm chair GM skills would have had Watson here years ago. I had L.Jackson over Allen as well.

McD this week in practice should pair Smoke and Foster and throw 100 deep balls until they hit consistently. I have no idea wth is going on with his deep passes? It needs to get fixed as I stated earlier.

The result we just witnessed sadly. There is blame all around on the loss, placing it all on Allen is just nonsense. We left opportunities all over the field today unfortunately.

The pass hits you in both hands you catch the ball in the big league.

Knox and Roberts killing drives.

Allen actually played pretty decent today even though many here want to place him as the blame to today's loss.There were several key drops by players today which hurt. Allen has to get this long ball straightened out NOW. The 2 min drive needs more leadership/direction from Allen get plays off quicker. We should have been playing for a TD and not a FG to tie a game. B-

Spot on! You have close to 2 mins and a TO. Most teams drive the field for a game winning TD. I have no clue WTF we were thinking here. This def needs some scrutiny and repair.

Kick the F'ing FG???

This game is exciting as hell
