Let's leave them on an island.

I'd have expected some Max Protect in there. Fewer receiving options, but when you have a quarterback like Mahomes, it can still work.

Would have made sense to adjust to that (or something) once they saw what was happening last night, but apparently not.

Andy Reid is universally considered an offensive genius, but he's been known to make some positively inexplicable decisions in the playoffs from time to time.

I'd have to say this is one of them.

I absolutely expected Reid and Bieniemy to scheme around their weaknesses at OT. They went full Rivera/Shula though.

Lotta folks on Twitter pointing out that in last night's game, Eric Bieniemy didn't exactly show anybody they made a huge mistake not hiring him as a head coach.

Todd Bowles, on the other hand...

(and Byron Leftwich)

Not defending him at all, because if you make the trip and are on the sideline it is his job. However, I do wonder just how much Reid had his head in this game after what his son did.

Crossed my mind too.

I mean, we all saw what was happening out there. How do you not try something?

When your head coach is or has been an OC, as is the case for both Reid and Arians, how much blame/praise do you give to the OC of that team?  Knowing they are running their head coaches offense and running it the way the head coach wants it run in most cases.  

That is always what I believe GM's and owners think about Bieniemy.

Valid.

I do think the main person who has to answer for what happened last night has gotta be Reid.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By TD alt · Posted

      I heard one analyst say that Parsons is (or was relative to the same age) a better player than Mack. Could be recency bias, but I'd say that that's absolutely true.

      Watson is a cautionary tale because he pulled that trade coming off a full year he didn’t play due to injury and then almost a whole other full season due to an 11 game suspension for being a creep.  If Parsons was coming off all of that, I’d agree - we don’t do it.  But Parsons has been mentioned with the likes of LT and Mack.  If we could swing it, we should do it.  I don’t think the cowboys would trade him in-conference, but we’ve seen wilder things happen before (McRib to WSH).

      Saw a post somewhere earlier that said what the Bears gave up for Khalil Mack would be a fair comp as to what to expect it would take to get Parsons.  But Parsons is actually a year younger than Mack was at that point, and also, I believe Mack was named an all-pro at two different positions that prior year, iirc…  but I think Parsons is as equally versatile. we should definitely see what it would cost, at minimum.
