Sophomore slump for Brady? That or he's trying to get "too cute" with his play calling to audition for a HC job (like what Chud did in 2012). 

 

At the beginning of the year, Brady and Sam seemed to be on the same page. Heck, Sam had 3 straight 300 yd games. Then...things changed. IMO, if we can get back to that. This will just be a bump in the road.

The other thing that bothers me about where we're at now with his playcalling is that now that DBs jumped routes 2 straight weeks for key INTs and the story about Robby's blow up comes out, it takes away the opportunity to surprise them here in the immediate .  Teams will now expect it's coming, especially this week, because it's become such a huge, noticeable issue.  And thats why he isn't a very good coordinator.  Good ones see teams sitting on routes and they make the needed adjustments immediately before teams even know the adjustment was made.  But, now, it just feels like we've been backed in a corner.

Just noticed the commentators saying that the Vikings DBs are sitting on routes. Sounds like a Brady issue for sure.

    • You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
    • Yeah, this is all projections of how it will turn out. Inevitability this list will look ridiculous in a full 2025 sesson hindsight, most likely. Still, I am pretty surprised that so many bristled at being thought of as having very, very lowly ranked WR and TE units. We literally have been for years. All you have to do is just have things stay the same and those are immediately bottom 5 units. It is easy to see why one would be reticent to have lofty expectations in the preseason. Gotta show it first when you are a perennial cellar dweller. That's just life at the bottom.
    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
