Here's what the garbage time stats tell me.

Cam, KB and Greg Olsen can play football. The rest of this offense is offensive. Once the dogs were called off and cam wasn't under constant pressure those three made plays. Once we get rid of shula and completely revamp this doo doo "offensive" line we might just have a decent team.

you make the assumption that Cam and Olsen still want to play for this team... right now it doesnt look like Cam wants to. and Olsen has been obviously frustrated lately.

Football games are won/lost at the line of scrimmage.  So yes...improving the O-line will solve a lot of problems.

Garbage time stats are called that for a reason.

Olsen was the only stud I saw on the field, Cam had moments but also threw into coverage, locked onto receivers and showed poor mobility.

 

Why does it take us getting down by 2+ touchdowns to start targeting our TE?

 

They expect us to target our TE! Go long Cotch!

 

 

lol

 

 

at some point, you just have to laugh.

The reason no receivers are open is because we only send 3 against 8 defenders. Teams can get to Cam with 4 guys Olsen and the running backs stay back to block because our offensive line is poo.

Joe Webb may be our second best receiver, and its not close.

But the Huddle told me all offseason that we were fine at WR! There were some that even said this before we drafted KB

I agree with Webb though. His catch last night was the best by any WR not named KB this season.

We were just discussing this... long bombs to Cotchery.

 

Is that Cam's call or is that the design of the play?  I mean, the DB had him easily beat every single time.

 

I kind of doubt that Newton wants his only viable deep threat to be Jerricho Cotchery at this point, lol.

 

Hell, the only true speed WR we have right now is an undrafted rookie who hasn't even been activated the last few games.

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
