Pre-2000's can't really be compared because the rules were not as offense friendly. Defense won championships and run first, ball control offenses prevailed. Post-2000 the league became more pass oriented as rule changes began favoring passing and scoring. Cook has been phenomenal and should be a focal point of this offense. However, I don't believe that's why our offense is so run heavy focused. If the reason was Cook, he'd be getting the ball 20-25 times a games. I believe McDermott is trying to cover for his defense by having a run first, ball control offense. Even when we pass, it's quick hitting bubble screens, short passes that are an extension of the run game. McDermott does not want a quick strike offense that is constantly putting the defense back on the field because he knows they can't hold the best teams, ie: 13 seconds, etc...

I agree. Why isn't this an off season thing??

I feel like they are giving him every opportunity to turn his ***** around. If it doesn't happen, dude will be gone in the off season.

USAF 1998-2014. AF was overmanned so they forced some to retire and offered early retirements to those between 15-18 yrs in. I fell right under 18 and put in my papers while deployed to Qatar. Was on a flight home a month later and picked up the sacred DD-214.

I'd be good with keeping McD if they picked up Kingsbury as OC and McD stayed out of his way. Then either let McD focus on helping the DC or b ing in Schwartz and McF can just focus on being the HC. McD needs to stop trying to build his coaching tree by promoting from within. His tree is more like a shrub, barely clinging to life.

Disagree with this. I won't ever question his efforts. Effort does not guarantee success. Sean even changed his ways when the team came to him with their concerns. I give him credit for that. It's not an easy thing to hear people out and actually take it to heart and change your ways. He's a great guy and I wish he was a great coach, but I'm not sure his formula works.

I mean, if it was our coach we'd be loving it. Pretty damned funny. It was their SB. They prob don't get another win this season.

Your concern is the play over the fact that Brady lost the element of surprise, but ran the damn play anyways??? If that's doesn't show how inept he is, I don't know what does.

Brady had the luxury of having Burrow, Chase, and Jefferson in the only good offense he coached. When you have elite guys like that, it covers your flaws. Now that he doesn't have Elite WRs, his lack of ability to truly game plan and scheme is being revealed.

Or Miami came to play in theirs today and our guys thought they could sleepwalk this week.

How does this team go from looking so good against the Chiefs, to looking like absolute horse sh1t against a dumpster fire team the next week?

Are you surprised when he went back to a surprise pass on 4th and 1 after Miami already saw what you were doing?

What in the absolute fack?!?!?

It was supposed to be a quick hit to Cook in the flat but Miami already saw we were passing before the timeout and was ready for it
