Unrealistic expectations

Recommended Posts

I see some are already ripping the coaches and forgetting that our problem is lack of talent on both sides of the ball, but especially on defense. We all knew these routs were coming at the start of the season so just relax and hope we can do well in the draft.

We had a good first quarter. Our second quarter was like 35 yards of offense I thought they said during the game. 

That was actually the second half of the game, 35 yards. The second quarter the team got a whooping 37 yards... 

So the three last quarters the team gained 72 yards.. for a game total of 187.

Yeah that reinforces my point though. We had a good first quarter on offense and that was it.

Problem is the defense looked sufficient to start the year, now they look just awful, and thats not the direction a young defense should go, they should get better as the season goes and things make more sense in front of them. After giving up a 98 yard TD to a guy who's 40 time is only measurable on the mayan calendar, No one on that defense is even close to adequate.

Who says they should get better?  There's more tape on them now what they're doing schematically and at some point it comes down to 1 on 1 matchups. When you have poor talent, especially at positions like MLB and DB, you get exposed.

Exactly.  We have some young talent on defense, largely due to last year's draft.  The DL may be on a track to become a force to be reckoned with in the not too distant future.  But the secondary and LB corps is mostly bare, save for Chinn.

Generally, offensive and defensive coordinators are pretty smart and identifying strengths and weaknesses given about a half a season of film.

yeah you could watch brady yesterday targeting whitehead and boston specifically.

The start definitely made people get hope 

I tried to warn everyone that the more film we put on tape the worse we would look. We had a significant element of surprise early in the season with so much roster turnover and am all new nearly exclusively college coaching staff.

I’m pleased with the coaching. I have some problems with defensive alignments sometimes, that giant hole in the middle of the field on the 98 yard td was more coaching problem than talent deficiency, but I’m mostly fine with even Snow. The problem is bad QB, bad MLB and highly inconsistent play in the secondary outside of Chinn.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
