As soon as the season is over..

 

Player we must cut asap.

 

- Harper (the most useless player ever)

- Decoud

- Silatolu (a 10 years old kid can bull rush him)

- Chandler (thanks for trying..)

 

 

First to second string players:

 

- Bell

- Foucault

- White

- Cason

- Klein (you like him but he is a bad tackler.)

 

 

 

Promoted to first string :

 

- SHORT DAMMIT!

- Jones

- Norman

 

 

 

Everyone is  blaming Shula, but the one to blame is the one drafting OL like Edmund Kugbila, Amini Silatolu,.

And Ealy when the team need an OT bad.

I've given some thoughts and rewatched games, etc.  I'm starting to lean in the direction of football basics (tackling especially) coverage, endurance, as the problem.  That is a coaching problem.  This isn't necessarily Rivera either.  Yes, he is the ultimate, I agree and blame should be shared.  When players don't tackle, cover receivers, get down field with energy to make necessary cuts, etc. then the basics are falling off.  The coaching staff needs to get those issues corrected.  We have talent on the team and good coaching can make that talent great.

Silatolu was drafted by Hurney, not Gettleman. No way I bench Klein. Norman and Jones are already starting. Ealy was BPA and there were no OT's available in the 2nd worth taking at that point.

I keep coming back to this point - The biggest failure on this team is our offensive line coaching. Out of any position, O Line is the least about how physically gifted you are and more about how much you can control your technique and work as a unit. Yes we may not be able to always win 1 on 1 battles at tackle, but having one DE break free is not the end of the world.

 

When your interior line is being blown up by 3 or 4 man rushes, its not a personnel problem, its a coaching issue. Shout about Shula and Ron/DG as play callers/talent evaluators all you want, but for the love of god replace Matsko next season.

Did i say Gettleman?

No

I am talking about blame nothing else..........

 

 

Keep Klein if you like and watch him being runned over and missing tackles.

Harper, Decoud, White are not the only one responsable for the bad defense.

    • I consider last year Bryce's rookie year.....and I expect some regression/D adjustment in his second season in Canales' O.  Film is film.   So yeah, I agree....he won't be the dude that opened up the year week 1 or closed the door week 17.  We will get some dude in between it all most likely.  Which IMO puts us in a really awkward no man's land with Bryce.   
    • The question is which Bryce shows up game 1. Do we get week 2 (2024) Bryce, or week 18 (2024) Bryce?  I will say that his progression after the benching last year was amazing. He literally got better every game - sans Dallas. Like every week he did something we hadn't seen him do before. And it wasn't luck, toss it up for grabs plays like Penix did against Carolina. Penix was just throwing the ball as hard as he could in the direction of a receiver and hoping they'd make a play for him. What we saw from Bryce was different. Decision making, reading defenses, recognizing blitzes and where they were coming from, knowing his hot, avoiding pressure and manipulating the pocket, throwing with anticipation, taking shots downfield, and running the ball surprisingly well. Stats don't always tell the story. Did he miss some throws that he should have made - sure did. But the clutch gene is strong with this one. One score game and Carolina has the ball with 2 minutes on the clock - I'm confident he'll give them a chance to win more than he doesn't. 
    • I really like David Moore. He's a reliable WR. Smart, doesn't drop the ball and he's where he's supposed to be. Now, he ain't gonna route up a DB. He ain't gonna 50/50 ball a DB. He ain't gonna run by a DB either. But he runs a good enough route and catches the ball - definitely an NFL average WR. Every team could use a David Moore. Now if this receiving group can force Dan and Dave to let him go, then this team has come a long way since 2023. A LONG way. But I will say that Horn's speed is a big deal. They don't really have another guy with speed and quickness to blow the top off the defense and make guys miss in space after the catch, though he is still a rookie and hasn't done it in the NFL. If he and Renfrow push Moore out, then we might actually have something gents. Plus I see Renfrow as Thielen's replacement in 2026. I just don't think Coker is the reliable, move the chains guy like Thielen. Could be wrong.
