Definite case to be made. Was PFF's top ranked corner one week. 

NO telling how he would have faired against those teams but as far as being an adequate replacement for Norman I was content.  If we can find our pass rush (see most disappointing) and get Bradberry back.  We might have a chance to remedy this slow start.

Shula is not disappointing. He's expected to be a poor contributor. I still don't get how he has been a key to our success. Shula is quite possibly the worst OC in the NFL. 

On another note, how many more yards and receptions does Greg need to own history?

He has been a key to our success because he is willing to adapt completely to his greatest asset....Cam. 

We went 15-1 and led the NFL in scoring with bad WRs and bad OTs.  Worst OC in the NFL? That alone discredit that thought as legit.  He is also our first OC in our history who has been universally praised for the complexity of his scheme.

Shula isn't the GOAT....but he isn't the worst.  The fact anyone would talk about him now is crazy.  There are about 10 legit issues more concerning.

Worst OC in the NFL gets in the way of the success we have had the recently.  Yeah, Cam is the key but NFL coordinators get in the way all the time because of their own egos

Man, I really can't wait for us to move on from Ealy.  I'm tired of our DE's being a complete joke.  We once had the most feared tandem in the league, now they're singled up every single game and still get no pressure.

Ealy just seems like a whiff on Gettleman's part at this point. I guess it doesn't help when you've had to come behind Pep, who is still arguably the greatest player who has suited up for the franchise (and unfairly maligned by a vociferous bunch of ignorant ingrates in my opinion). He hasn't proven to have the physical skills or the tenaciousness of Greg Hardy. Plus, Ealy has kind of paled in comparison to (then) Big Money in his prime, and still really isn't as good as CJ now. He came in suspect, and has largely played at a mediocre level since he has been here. I can't help but think JAG when I think of Ealy now.

Honestly, Big Frank seems to have had more upside, and between him, the Hardy fiasco, and Gettleman's unwillingness to invest in the position the last couple of drafts, we are now where we are, with no dominant DE, and that sucks.

    • Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.
    • Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
