  1. Cool post.
  2. It may be as simple as Allen needing to better understand the WHYs. Allen's generation doesn't like to work for the sake of working - they want to understand why they're being asked to do something. You need them to understand the goal and how the work relates to that goal in order to get their buy-in. Maybe Brady can do a better job explaining to Allen the various WHYs, why we need to study tendencies on film all week, why we need to take the dump-offs for the first few quarters until the safeties move up, why we are running specific plays at specific times etc. If Allen feels like he's "just running the plays that are called" and doesn't understand or believe in the WHYs, he's simply not going to be close to his best self. Just a theory.
  3. Maybe Erik’s best video.
  4. I was pleased with the simplicity of the play calls and the fact that it seemed like there were actual plays, not just rules keyed off of what the defense was doing. The offense as a whole was doing too much thinking on the fly under Dorsey, and for whatever reason (probably a variety of reasons) it wasn't working. Yesterday it seemed like actual plays were being called to target specific situations. They still have a lot of work to do with their redzone offense, where everything is compressed and execution needs to be tighter. And none of the playcalls would've mattered if the offensive line wasn't winning at the LOS yesterday which for the most part they were - it was an impressive show of strength against a great front seven.
  5. They won both lines of scrimmage. Basically it’s that simple.
  6. What’s happening in Gaza is Allen’s fault, too.
  7. Zero percent chance of that. Opening a new stadium and you’re gonna sell fans McD instead of JA17?
  8. He is starting to socialize his excuse narrative.
  9. It’s not binary either lazy or not. It’s a question of complacency. Allen took his foot off the gas this season - it happens. Lots of folks have quite quit during the past couple of years. It’s understandable but not excusable.
  10. You are giving Allen wayyyy too much credit. When the Cardinals were putting a study clause into Murray’s contract nobody was defending him as being “disillusioned with his playcaller.” And Allen picked Dorsey in the first place. It was supposed to be Allen’s guy coordinating Allen’s offense. Allen 100% has become complacent. It’s been obvious all season that he’s not putting in the work. Allen is making tens of millions of dollars. He’s single. He loves to party (have seen enough smoke here). He doesn’t love film study and believes his athletic ability will let him figure things out after the snap. I can understand it all and I love the guy but let’s not make excuses for him. He just got his OC fired. Time for him to take life a little more seriously if he truly wants to be great. Allen’s entire approach this season has been “f— around and find out” and he just found out. These are peoples’ livelihoods at stake.
  11. Yeah, that's not it. His mechanics are poor IMO because he's reading the field late, post-snap, then hurrying up his throws once he finally "sees it." That's also causing drops, because he's firing it in there so hard to make up for the processing delay.
  12. Attention-shopping on the internet is a daily activity for millions.
  13. Don’t have a huge issue with the call but generally speaking the blitz yesterday wasn’t working. They weren’t getting home and weren’t covering tight behind it. In hindsight it likely wouldn’t have mattered bc they weren’t rushing to the proper depth in their non-blitz situations anyhow.
  14. Blitz really hadn’t been working the whole game. And even when they weren’t blitzing they were rushing too deep and Russ was resetting or scrambling. The pressure concepts were not well schemed or executed last night.
  15. They should bill him for that tablet on the way out.
  16. Maybe. Allen will now have to apply himself to learning a slightly new offense, and will have to think about the consequences for his offseason nonsense and lack of mid-week investment. The entire Allen/Dorsey era seemed to be “f— around and find out” and now they’ve just found out.
  17. Maybe this will scare Josh straight.
  18. Mine will read “User Error”
  19. He is immature and it may take having his friend Dorsey fired to get him to take life more seriously.
  20. As a leader, and as a parent, you should expect your best and worst qualities to be mirrored back to you. McD’s teams have heart and they put in effort. But they are insecure and tight and, often, choke in key moments. Both are personality traits of their HC.
  21. He seems to be one of the most unaccountable executives in the entire country.
  22. Write him a telegram.
