It really all hinges on Darnold. If McCaffrey stays healthy and the running game is strong, that should open up a lot of play action and "safe" chances for Darnold to play safe football. He'll need to take risks down field, that's why they acquired him over Bridgewater, but those chances are meant to be risky.

I've been thinking about this.  Our YBC dropped off a cliff last season.   We had been top of the league for years all the way to 2019.  Then in 2020 we were bottom of the league.

Was it the new scheme, oline performance, Davis run path choices, or some combination?

If it was oline, or scheme, we may have a problem.

Anything less than 30 tds is a significant downgrade from Watson 

and if Darnold doesn’t clean up his mistakes he’s as good as gone

sorry but that’s the way the cookie crumbles, especially with this regime

Would like to add that I’m very excited about this defense flying around 

How do we downgrade from a player on another team?

He broke 30 once. His career high is 33. He typically throws mid 20s.

Idk what the time table is for the deshaun watson situation but he might still end up here

Was basically a done deal before the news broke

This team with him at the helm is an actual Super Bowl contender

Say what?

Bump. Because I've been thinking about this as well. With all the stuff we have been talking about to help make Sam successful this year. There is one that seems to be forgotten. Play Action.

 

Last year, for Dlines, it was stop the run on the way to the passer. PA was no deterrent at all. Whether it was the Oline, the RB, or even the QB. For us it just didn't work.

 

This year, with Cmac back. PA should be much, much more effective. Even if Cmac is not being effective, just the threat of him running should give Sam and extra 1/2 second or so.

 

Point being, Dlines can no longer stop the run on the way to the QB. Cuz if you don't make the tackle, there's a chance nobody does.

That address stops by the line, but a lot of run stops are done by fast LBs (like TB).

I think  Tremble tremble will help get to that second level. 

One of BC's strength is getting to the second level as well.

With CMC's vision and shiftiness, I hope to see a rebound in YBC.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
