Ian Thomas blocking DE's is indeed a bad coaching decision. The All 22 breakdown had so many bad designs in regards to our personnel

2 picks later back to Baker

This dude Baker got beef with someone in every game we play it seems like

Null

So he likes to walk around and micro-manage?

It's not like he's grading out well in the run game either.

Yup and we do the opposite of helping the situation by doing no pre snap motion, running CMC up the gut when he does run, we have to be super low in the play action percentage across the league. It is the BO in the DBO! Sad that the casual fans can identify the issues but the coaches are outsmarting themselves, that's why they should be fired. We haven't even gotten to Ian Thomas trying to block DE's 1v1 lol

Need to ditch the RPO's and actually run the ball to set up play action. Zero thought was put into matching an OC with the roster or with grabbing Baker to run said OC's style of play calling. Just throwing poo at the wall out of desperation

I'm halfway through, I'd put 70% of the issues on McAdoo, Baker doesn't read the field very well at times, and the line/TE's are pretty sloppy in the run game but for the most part that goes back to the OC and forcing guys into his archaic system. I remember reading articles about how the Browns were struggling with Baker when only* running playing action 25% of the time. I don't even know if we've been running it 10% of the time with McAdoo.

Hard to ignore the turf adding extra stress to pretty much everything inside the leg

Yeah after watching 4 QB's struggle under Rhule, I don't think they're going to find any decent/average vets to come in at this point, maybe not even for next year if the staff remains the same. Pretty much the only current FA option is fuging Mike Glennon

Sassy

Yikes gonna be Burris and Hartsfield out there getting embarassed

Yup, he didn't learn poo from 5-6 years off the job. Hard to say if getting rid of Joe Brady was the right move but the 2020 offense looked a lot better than this garbage.

Oh right. The QB sneak and CMC run when Foreman was sitting on the bench doing nothing. Yeah I think that was it for Ian, and I don't really understand why we're rotating 3 TE's that are essentially all used the same way. Strange to try to move Ricci into more of the fullback TE when Tremble was the best run blocker of the group coming out of college.

Any thoughts on all the TE targets? I felt like Ian getting 3 targets right off the bat really killed the early momentum, but I only caught the original live stream

Imagine if Rhule mentioned Ben McAdoo as his OC when interviewing for HC jobs in the first place. Would have been laughed out of the room.

That first game was horrible, can't imagine it improving through the season. Probably drugged up just to play at this point until something in there just doesn't work anymore

So we're going from losing to a bottom 3 defense to playing against possibly the best defense in the league this week? Should go well

I still do not believe Harstfield was a better option than Kenny Robinson, Rhule just didn't like the guy
