Cautiously optimistic.  A lot of coaches say they fit their schemes to their players’ strengths, but when you watch the games it’s clear they simply aren’t good enough at scheming to pull it off.  McAdoo at least has a solid track record.  I like what he’s saying about the tight ends (even if it’s mostly just hyping up his guys); really hoping we can utilize Tremble more this year.  That dude has potential to be big time.

He has a different haircut every time I see him 

That was a particularly mean-spirited way to say that, if that was your point.

 

I will say, however, as someone who wasn't nearly as follicly blessed as McAdoo, it's always irksome to see such a glorious mane of hair so flippantly misused.

Joe Brady was over his head. Hiring an OC with zero play calling skills was a bad move in hindsight. Scheme is great but you can have a simple scheme if the D doesn’t know what you are doing.

I have zero clue if McAdoo will be a lot better. He can’t be worse and with CMC and the OL, we should be better barring lots of injuries. My only concern is that when OBJ missed most of the season, McAdoo’s offense was 31st. Even in the 2 games OBJ started, they scored almost 10 points more per game.

I just hope he brings along Corral so he starts enough games and we know if he’ll be that guy.

Yeah, that 2017 year is tricky because they lost OBJ, Brandon Marshall, Sterling Shepard was playing hurt most of the year. They had like 20 players on IR. He was also HC not OC by that point but who knows how much control he kept over the play calls

Why dwell on his team's offensive performance while he was HC though?  It's not an apples-to-apples comparison; we want to evaluate McAdoo's performance as an OC since that's the role he's serving here.  It's logical to think, as HC, he was much more hands-off with his offense than while he was the OC where that'd be his sole focus.

I think a more apt comparison is to look at the Giants' offense before and after he was brought on as OC.  In 2013 (the year before McAdoo was brought on as OC), the Giants ranked 28th in yardage and 28th in points.  In 2014 in McAdoo's first year as OC, the Giants ranked 10th in yardage and 13th in points.  In 2015 in McAdoo's second (and final) year as OC, the Giants ranked 6th in points and 8th in yardage.  That's a pretty good track record as OC, although fairly limited.  I think we can all agree he was a failure as a HC and if Rhule gets fired and McAdoo takes his place full-time (beyond an interim role), I'm gonna be just as disappointed as most everyone else here.

      Disturbing

      I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.

      Eric Collins Calling First NFL Game (ours)

      By KSpan · Posted

      Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.

      Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
