We have a lot of talent on this team, both in vets and rookies/young players.

Coaching and schemes just aren't making good use of them. That has become apparent throughout the year. The materials are there, what we are lacking is the knowledge of how to turn them into a professional team. 

Look at CMC. Rivera could use him all over the field. Yes, he has been injured each year, but even when he was on the field, we saw poor usage of him. If it wasn't a called run up the middle, he was always the second or third option (always the safety outlet) which meant there were no blocking schemes set up in front of him. Really no wonder the lower output and injuries when you consider this.

DJ Moore suffers from a similar problem -- he is sent out on a stringer by himself, hopefully to catch a pass in triple coverage and "make something happen" rather than scheming routes to get him some picks. Sheesh, how about even a frikkin' slant route for the guy? It's like all that planning goes to trying the make Robby Anderson a star player, something he certainly isn't.

On Gilmore and Henderson, we have some strength there as our #2 and #3 DBs, particularly if Jaycee Horn comes back and plays with the same quality as before. Gilmore and Henderson can really shut down the secondary targets, allowing Horn and a safety to nullify the #1 WR.

Oh, frik it. Who cares? We're going to have to sit through a couple more games of this at the least, but most likely another season beyond that. fug this.

Sorry-not about how much Rhule needs to be fired, but here is a thread that reveals the character of young players who bring it during times of adversity.  Some of our youth decided to step it up Sunday and they played well.

Hartsfield played lights out Sunday and seems to be settling into a role in the secondary playing the nickel position and at times, a third safety.  He was targeted 5 times and surrendered 15 yards for a QB rating against rating of 64.6. 

 

 

 

 

Uh...he let someone spin him around and did not tackle a RB running in for a TD. The dude is ass water.

    • Redeemed ourselves with a solid middle to end the night....
    • This is spot on, with the first 5 years of a QBs contract being so pivotal, as it should, unless you have Pat Mahomes or the reincarnation of Tom Brady, stats shows once the qb gets paid, the teams Super Bowl chances shrink significantly  what we did to get Bryce was idiotic to say the least, not because of the player(not a Bryce endorsement) but because there’s a long history of proof, making big swings at qb, are usually big misses  find the identify, build around that, and go from there. Unfortunately we don’t have one, and neither the defense nor offense side of the ball are more than good at best 
    • Seems like a loaded EDGE class. though I think we don't spend a premium pick there with Scourton/Princely showing production and potential.  Concepcion at 19 is intriguing and seen ARSB comps with his shiftiness, high IQ and YAC ability. He and TMac would be a nasty 1-2 combo at stretching a defense. Brenan Thompson could be that day 2 speedy/slot guy that could boost his draft stock in Mobile.  Sam Hecht could be a later selection for C depending on how we are planning to attack that position in FA and our own previous guys. Shelton from PSU is an interesting developmental tackle that if he can get locked into an NFL strength program and rock up, could be good down the road. Speaking of PSU, Dani Dennis Sutton was a guy last year I was big on and was bummed he headed back to Happy Valley. I think he can be a helluva NFL player, and if he can show improvement in his pass rush moves, I wouldn't be mad at him in a trade-back situation.
