Cliff notes:

Basically McAdoo is trash. The RPO game is the staple of our offense and it's trash. We're not feeding our workhorses and Mayfield is a limited QB schematically and we're not playing to his strengths (play action).

Smitty did give the D props. Said their biggest problem is simply getting worn out from being on the field all game.

IMO, it's very clear at this point that Phil Snow has been the reason for Rhule's success. Rhule is the pitchman and Snow is the actual brains behind the operation and that's why Rhule has always coached defensive focused teams with "good enough to get by" offenses. Except "good enough to get by" at Temple and Baylor ain't good enough to get by in the NFL.

that was great thanks

Yeah, loved Smitty giving the defense props.  They’ve been playing about as good as they can considering how shite our offense has been.  
 

The offense basically being RPO without the R was one of my favorite things he said.  Mentioned Foreman is nowhere to be seen, Baker can’t find throwing lanes like he should, while smaller guys like Murray and Brees don’t have those batted ball problems, and ended with a disgusted face asking “what is McAdoo doing?”  I don’t know Stevonne… I just don’t know.

 

Was also nice to hear him say his two teams are the Panthers and his Utah Utes.  Love hearing him not talk about the Ravens (except for that cool little Suggs story).

 

always an entertaining time with 89

He is right.  We ran the ball a couple of times to start the third qtr.  We punted, and they tied the game at 10-10.  After that, we passed the ball roughly 20 consecutive times.  By the end of that stretch, we were down 26-16.  20 consecutive throws might work with Mahomes or Brady.  It ain't working with Baker Mayfield.

Smitty doing a lot of posturing and thinking about what to say to not sound like a complete ass.

His unfiltered version is, the players are good enough to win some games if put in the right position to succeed. These coaches are so fuging dumb, they will never put them in that position.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
