A couple questionable decision from yesterday game


GoobyPls

Recommended Posts

Why did we run it so much near the goal line with our backs instead of Cam?

Why is Cotchery running screen passes and go routes?

Why isn't Funchess getting more snaps? Every time he makes a play they take him out.

When are they gonna put Delaire back at RE? He hasn't done anything since being moved to LE

Probably because they want as little wear on Cam as possible, and RBs are supposed to be able to punch it in from the 1. Cam was limping a bit at one point.

No idea, unless they thought there was some kind of favorable matchup with that specific corner where Cotchery's savvy would get him open.

Probably because he's only in for certain packages, though I wouldn't be surprised to see his role increasing. He's still the #4 WR in terms of depth chart.

Delaire was at right end on multiple occasions and couldnt get past Lewan, unless you mean why not put him at LE and let him go against right tackles like Bell.

The only big thing I did not like was playing possum with over a minute left and 2 timeouts going into halftime knowing we are going to get the ball back after the half

Yeah. Rivera, appeared to lose his aggression at the half, cause he knew he was getting the ball back to start the third.

Its fine to break out the 9-0 feel good platitude...

 

 

But Cam was harassed more yesterday and sacked more than I care to see. An injury to Cam and this team is not a Superbowl contender. 

I remember thinking at one point that we were getting a little pass happy and wishing they would run it more. The screen play needs to come back. I have no problem with running the backs inside the 5. That play fake needs to be a real threat when Cam does keep it.

They pulled Funchess out 1 play after he got leveled and drew the personal foul. I was at the game and it was a brutal hit. You could hear it from the stands. They prob just wanted to check him out.

Unless there was a second hit I'm forgetting, Ginn was the one who got hit and drew the flag.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
