Give me some hope. Can this offense be turned around?

Unlike all the crybabies that want us to lose so that they can write juvenile open letters to David Tepper, I'm trying to remain hopeful here.

Can our offense turn it around? Can the OL gel? Can Baker get it together? Give me a few reasons to think it's a possibility.

Also, is Darnold still alive? Is he even on the sidelines? 

Bonus points if you can explain to me why our secondary sucks and is reverting to a Rivera soft zone.

It will turn around once Sam is put in week 5 or week 6. 

Baker is so fundamentally bad, I question what the coaches were looking at during training camp. He has the absolute worst footwork in the pocket of any starting QB in the league. The problems he displays in games actually showed up in training camp i.e cant see over linemen, having to move out of pocket to see throwing lanes, terrible feet in the pocket. Just the absolute worst

 

Baker is officially the worst rated starting QB in the league now. Just terrible

If the Oline keeps improving it can mask alot of deficiency... Play calling may get better with more trust.. But my money is the Oline ..

I feel like the offensive line has played horrible and is to blame a lot for Baker sucking. I also would love to know how many passes has been dropped by our team this season, it seems like a lot.

 

I guess the positive is that our offense can’t get any worse.

About what?

I don't think the Oline has been horrible... Alot of Bakers problem are on Bakers and the play calling has been vanilla.. But Oline has steady improved every game.. Run blocking has been way better than last year.. I actually see team having to stacked the box and we still get plus plays.. Pass blocking is coming along with Baker having more time then Darnold and Teddy.. Plus simple stunts and blitzes aren't automatically working against them.. Teams are actually having to use some exotic stuff to get pressure this year.. Last year they could bring 4 and destroy the oline..

Maybe I’m wrong, but I feel that Baker seems to be under pressure a lot. Yes our run game has improved but is that because we have CMC?

      The Dowdle Mirage - Play Calling Problems

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      They're pretty far off, double T-Mac's stats to get to the same targets as XL and it would be 4 drops to 7.  A 3 drop difference might not sound like a lot, but it's still almost twice as many drops on the same number of targets. Not to mention, if I remember correctly, XL's drop problems last year seemed more down field, where he was dropping passes he should be making and it was clear his poor hands were there reason he dropped them. And weren't both of T-Mac's drops this year on quick hitters with blockers out in front of him?  I know at least the second one was as he was going to go for a huge play and maybe a TD on it. To me, and yes, I'd say this about any other player, those are drops because a rookie was trying to do too much in making a play before securing the catch.  Much easier to improve upon than dropping passes because you have bricks for hands and body catch more often than hands catch, like with XL. And yes, 100%, which is why I wasn't one of those people you were referring to with talking about him that way last year.  Yes, I said he had drop problems., because he did, but I didn't think they were unsolvable and expected to see great improvement this year (unfortunately not sure that happened though).

      Every iffy call has gone the way of the Chiefs tonight, per usual. They had a TD earlier tonight that looked like obvious offensive pass interference and the flag was throw but picked up.
