You know what impressed me the most today? Is how good the O looked WITHOUT any direct input from Cooper. Yes he affects everything indirectly , yes, but still that was very very encouraging
The slow starts are a documented fact and have been discussed by both the media, this board AND the team and the players themselves. Look its obvious you're a Mcd fanboy and that's fine. We will agree to disagree. To not be able to admit that coaching is involved in the issues with this team in this area is simply denial.
This team has had an issue for YEARS now with slow starts under McDermott. The players have changed to some extent. This is not " hey they had a bad half" discussion. This is a proven trend. That's on coaching.
Hmm, I didn't realize criticism of a constant coaching issue means I want someone fired today. I'm on record now that I believe that in order to win the SB this organization will eventually need to move on from McDermott. Ok back to your narrative....
Positives:
Coooop
Davis runs ANGRY
Carter looks like a STEAL
Negatives: ANOTHER slow start, which frankly I think says more about coaching then the players.
I can't BELIEVE they haven't gotten Cooper involved, quick bubble screen, in, slant, swing, something to just get his hands on the ball,I mean cmon. Brady can't be this bad can he? This is 101 kind of stuff
I don't think this is " window dressing " in any sense. I think this is doing your due diligence and being ready to pull the trigger if needed. If you think that Beane will not pull the trigger because of a cap hit, then I suggest you think about what happened in April with a guy named Diggs.
