McAdoo Predictable

I did a quick scan back on the Browns game, and it's not *every* single play.  It is however such a high percentage it can't help but be noticed by anyone looking for these kinds of things.  I guess it seems pretty obvious to me, but one would think that an NFL team needs to show multiple plays and play types out of their formation in order to keep a defense guessing.

Something like this seems super simple to fix as well.  Just change CMC's alignment slightly in either direction to obfuscate.

As I understood it, he was saying it happened on plays run out of shotgun formation only.

Not relieving McAdoodoo of his negligence here, but again, this dysfunction has been present under Rhule every season.  

I cannot buy that McAdoodoo, with previous experience as an NFL OC and HC, would not catch this or think he could slide by with it purposely...  no matter how inept he may or may not have been in his professional coaching career, he's been on this level and would notice this stuff quickly...  

Again, my suspicion is that Rhule has a specific idea for how the offense should be ran and only allows the OCs to operate within that very limited scope.  Even when we dumped Brady and went to Rhule's HS Sweetheart for that few games last year, there was no significant change in the philosophy or playcalling.  It has felt, like for 3 years, outside of that first 3 games last season, that every week teams have known exactly what plays we were running before we ran them...  hell, teams have even come out and said just that.  Remember Cam's game in Miami last season where everyone was dumping on him?  Explain how Miami's defensive front knew exactly when he was going to throw and where to deflect that crazy amount of passes at the line they did.  And then go back and look at the picks...  they weren't on Cam, the DBs were literally running their routes for them and cut them off.  Also, remember Robbie complaining that teams were sitting on everything underneath last season?  And again, were on our third OC in 3 years now under Rhule and it all looks the same.  Just as predictable...

But regardless, this is beyond embarrassing.  No way would I have ever imagined at any point that our team would reach this level of amateurism.  Smh...

I remember that game, and your spot on

McAdoo was run out do the league from calling and running an O for this exact same stuff though.   So you can’t pin it all on Rhule. He hired someone the league refused to employ as a playcaller because if all this stuff. 
 

and it was discussed here before the season started.  This is what we were getting. 

He hasn't been completely out of the league but that's probably semantics as he spent a year as a consultant for the cowboys.... Still he won more games than Rhule as a HC.

    • Brandt's comment about Wharton was from his KC perspective when Wharton was a UDFA rookie.   "it goes back to the anecdote that Brandt Tillis had when he was in Kansas City. And it would be so easy to just cut Turk Wharton in 2020 when he was an undrafted rookie from a division two college in Missouri. It would been so easy to cut him because then he would have cleared waivers easily. No one knew this guy. They didn't have any joint practices, didn't have a preseason. Would have been so easy to cut him and bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue to build from there. And Brandt essentially said, "No, he's got to make the 53man roster if we're going to have any sort sense of credibility with this team."    
    • Plenty of us were scratching our heads about that signing at the time. Especially with our 3-4 defense. Wharton is kind of a one trick pony situational five tech DT. He doesn't have the beef to hold up against the run and he doesn't have the juice to shift outside. He's basically a situational pass rusher DT. If we paid him $40M+ and he can't start for a historically inept defense then holy poo...
    • Agreed.  300 and 2 or 3 total in Jacksonville in a winning effort would sure be a nice start.
