What play action have you been seeing? poo makes no sense we been running up the middle every first down all year so you can have it whenever you want it on first down.

Anyway we do have the ability to go deep, but we don't have a modern NFL deep threat now.  No body is current NFL fast on our roster and really didn't really replace it when Curt left.

It's not damning, but it sucks when it seems like our WRs don't get tons and tons of elite separation easily and quickly, which is what we need with our o-line

I think that's why Rhule is getting frustrated. I think that's what he wants.

I agree with mixing more of it in, just wanna give people a heads up before they start screaming to go all in on that, that's basically asking for Shula back.

We have some people going a few different directions. Some people think its Rhule. Some people think its the coordinator. Do you feel Rhule has laid out some poo that isn't getting done by OC?

I'm still on the fence with Rhule overall as it looks like he actually does relegate and OC is clearly on the headset calling the plays and no one not even Brady himself has contradicted this. Rhules in game coaching seems poo but in terms of the rest I'm not convinced he's bad just yet and the players keep repeating his talk which is a clear and obvious sign he hasn't lost the room. When the players stop that or speak their own language is when you can see there's a HC issue from the player perspective.

Still think he's a dumb dumb game day though.

I think when Darnold sucked and our OL was a mess than Rhule let Brady know that he wanted a more run based approach. Makes sense. But Brady handcuffed his offense so much that it's no longer really his offense. Hopefully we start to see things get opened back next week as Cam gets more comfortable. I think there may be a bit of miscommunication going on right now. Rhule wanting to be more run heavy but still aggressive in the passing game while Brady is basically hearing "go conservative". I don't know, just spitballin'.

I know what doesn't help though.

Rhule himself is inexperienced in the NFL and Brady is inexperienced period. He's only had one season in at college being just an assistant coordinator and now he's NFL full time OC...doesn't seem like a recipe for greatness. 

The good news potentially though is that what Cam does well is actually what Brady is partially known for as somehow people got mixed up thinking Brady is a deep passing game guy which he isn't and never has been.

it's hard to say I think because of the flux in the offense. Darnold balls out 3-4 games. Darnold poops the bed and gets reckless the next few. Receivers can't catch anymore. Then Darnold no longer the #1 and now we have Cam who doesn't know the playbook. It's like day, night, day -- the offense keeps changing due to the execution on the field and the QB change.

Brady does need to add in play action. We did 0 play action passes on sunday. With the way McCaffery was getting yards on the ground, play action could have tore that defense up.

      Surprise! Kon looks really bad!

      Same, bro.  Yeah, it just feels it has run its course and I don’t know that we’ll ever get more value.  Plus, with the new ownership, this draft has been super encouraging, so dare I believe maybe this FO can get something to really put us over the top in return for Melo.  I’ll still be a fan of his game and try to keep up with him if we move on, but yeah, I feel it’s time to turn the page. (and side note: I felt so happy after their rookie years because I told everybody I wanted Melo and didn’t trust Ant.  And Melo clearly looked like the better player early…  I thought Ant would bust because all that stuff he said about not loving the game and just his resume to that point…  but damn, if we could go back in time.🤣🤣🤣. I love Ant’s game and at times, when he gets in the zone, he is THE BEST player in the league in my opinion.)

      Appreciate that, bro!  And I could definitely see that with Cam.  Even though he’s a little younger than me, he is also someone I admire and feel a kinship with for a lot of various reasons. Funny enough, a few years after that encounter with Steve, I went to Charlotte with one of my friends whose brothers owned a moving company at the time.  He dropped me off uptown and went to work the day with them where I would wait until he got done and then we were gonna go to the Bobcats game that night.  So I walk all through that area for hours.  After awhile, I walk back towards the arena and sit in a bench on the backside of the arena, where the practice court and player’s entrance was.  As I’m sitting there, I look up and almost think I’m seeing things - I squint and blink my eyes a couple times just to be sure, and yes…  it’s one of my childhood heroes, Muggsy Bogues walking across the crosswalk and into the arena.  I think he was coaching the Sting then, iirc.  Part of me wanted to just say, “Hey!  Muggsy!  Thank you for the inspiration and memories!  You were one of my favorite players as a kid!”  But, I just watched him walk by and into the arena and thought, “that was cool!”  I also so Miguel Cotto a couple years back while in Orlando and told my kids who it was but didn’t say anything to him.  I think somewhere in my subconscious, that encounter with Steve really made me feel like the gamble on finding out if they’re receptive to interaction just isn’t worth finding out.  At the end of the day, no matter if they’re receptive inspired us or were a hero, unless they initiate it, I likely never will…  because again, they’re humans just like us.  Not anymore unique or special, they just have a highly visible and very public job that we get to watch and in some ways participate.  So, I just appreciate it for what it is.

      Young up for Player of the Week

      By frankw · Posted

      I'm pleasantly surprised they gave it to Bryce Young over Josh Allen. Finally we're getting some respect. Now I'm just hoping the team follows this up accordingly and doesn't lay another egg.
