Now if he could just play defense against the pass

Yup, I don't think anyone questioned his strength was against the run.  A definite liability in coverage though.  That also demonstrates how bad our DL and LB play has been this year overall.  I can't remember the last time our run defense was this bad.  Did I say bad?  That was too nice, absolutely fugg'n putrid!  That's a more accurate depiction.

Yeah, it's a good/bad thing. Good for Reid for getting those tackles, but a DB getting 100+ tackles is usually a really bad thing for the overall defense. 

We basically tried to play him in a TD role with him covering deeper routes... not going to happen. Just move him into the TD role, he’d thrive for a few more years.

Would never be TD though, nobody can replace him.

Just looked it up, this team had only one other year when our run defense was this bad.  Hazard a guess?  If you said 2001 you would be correct.  That year we finished dead last, but thanks to the Bengals being a bigger dumpster fire than us right now, we will have to settle for runner-up this year.

      For the right price… but if they did they would be pulling a Tepper, because they are trying to evaluate Shough and taking his best WR away is making it hard on him.

      see we are just not going to agree - unless you change your mind lol. Mine isn’t changing without hard evidence that Morgan supported it like a puppy dog.  He was the assistant. If he disagreed and said so, and they didn’t listen, he has to pick his battles. If he continued to oppose he is looking for work. He knows this stuff. I think he knows Bryce is a super long shot just because he faced NFL QBs and probably would have salivated at the thought of Bryce on the other side in his playing days.  Anyway I am going to judge him on what he has done since he’s been the man with the title.  I also would bet a stack that there were conditions placed on him and on Canales re Bryce Young. Can’t prove it. I am not supporting the Brooks pick, and rationalizing the XL pick. And rationalizing the Brooks pick to an extent, on the (assumed by me) mandate that was a condition of the hiring. Which was ‘sell out’ to make Bryce work. This year. Now. (2024) That is what those top two picks were.  IMO. They failed, id judged today.  I think Morgan is doing a great job really, once he got his feet under him and was allowed to do his job.  Fixing this team while accommodating Tepper/Bryce, more than a two year fix.    Anyhow I have beer to drink will check back later.
