  1. I don't think Sam Howell would have any better success behind this OL. Probably far less.
  2. Yeah, I wouldn't mind at least seeing Brady at LT. TBH...not sure it will matter with the sieve we have in the interior of the OL.
  3. IDK that I agree with that, nor do I agree that CMC might cure all our ails. We have 12 more games to figure all that out.
  4. The truth is likely somewhere in between. We aren't an undefeated NFL team nor are we as bad as 0-2 versus the NFC East.
  5. Sort of like the OL, I think they were fully in on Darnold and thought they had made the right move. I am willing to bet they didn't even attempt to get Minshew.
  6. 1000% agree but I will say I don't know if our results would be drastically different with this OL.
  7. Yeah but that mistake shouldn't have broken our backs like that. The offense mustered a measly 3 points and less than 150 yards after the half. We have to do better than that.
  8. Let's at least give this, we have a coaching staff that at least recognizes their own shortcomings. It's on them to correct those but remember the previous two HC'S and how quick they were to deflect blame.
  9. We can revisit this in Week 8-9. Some of this was correctable so we will see if they can. The OL and QB play may not be so we will see what can be done about that.
  10. That's sort of what I mean. I didn't really feel like offensive play calling lost us the game. I feel like offensive execution did. Untimely penalties, drops, Darnold's missed throws/back breaking INT's and atrocious OL play. Not trying to absolve Brady of some of the blame, but he was a minority issue on that side of the ball, IMO.
  11. I would be more comfortable with Brady as a backup than a starter. We don't have that luxury, unfortunately.
  12. Yeah, he was really off all day. I think he is starting to break down with that OL wilting constantly.
  13. Yeah, I mean....you aren't wrong. I am definitely not annointing the team anything. I just like what we have to work with quite a bit.
  14. The entire defense(save some lack of depth at LB). WR, RB.... We have ample enough talent to win a game like this. We just have to execute and shore up that pitiful OL.
  15. It wasn't a complete shitshow. Dare I say it.....missed opportunities?
  16. Agreed. I think we are seeing that his ceiling is much lower than they had hoped. Still, if we build a competent OL, he can be the guy until we find the guy.
  17. Not trying to absolve Brady of any blame but the execution was pitiful on that side of the ball.
  18. I really don't see how you don't.
  19. That isn't unfair but we should wait to see how the 2022 offseason goes on the OL before we lob that grenade, IMO. A clearer argument could be made for the lack of investment in this past draft, given the resources we had.
  20. 100% agree. They deserve the lumps they will rightfully take for not addressing the OL this offseason, and Rhule(somewhat) for not addressing it in the previous offseason. The only reason I feel better about it is that I don't think you are gonna see the same level of hubris we had under Hurney and Gettleman. I expect them to pivot and try to get better.
  21. I don't feel like we got worse after our recent trades. I believe Fitt when he days that he has tried to improve the OL. I think it is telling when he says that he can't even get people to come off backup OL.
  22. In fairness, you want them to be in a "win now mode" even if that is a bridge too far.
  23. I almost sprayed bourbon all over this table.
  24. As you are well aware, I was heavily anti-Darnold prior to the season but I just don't see how we could ever hope for him to be successful like this. It would be different if he were failing completely on his own accord but that isn't the case at all.
