Dude is a 3rd WR at this point in his career. I still want them to double down on rookie WRs

I agree. But I’d be ok with him being a 2 if we can get a true #1.

WR is just one of those positions people will have to accept overpaying this year either money or in years because of how it is. But I’d rather do that than ruin our #1 overall development.

Agreed. Not expecting much from Thielen surprised we gave him 3 years. Hopefully he can make some good red zone snags or something but we still need to draft a WR. 

If he stays healthy he's the most reliable pass catching option on the team by a mile and that's beyond meaningful

The 3 year deal sounds like cap manipulation to me, not a chance they are expecting 3 years out of him.  The final year or two is probably either voidable or won’t have any effect on the cap if he’s cut.  We haven’t seen the numbers yet but this front office is smart enough to structure it that way to save cap space for this year.

      The Dowdle Mirage - Play Calling Problems

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Look, I've been pounding on the Canales shouldn't be calling the offensive plays thing since last year. He's first off, not very versatile and makes Ron Rivera look like a master of mid-game adjustments. Also, because I think you really, really need to be calling the offensive plays from the booth with a better view of the whole field.  A coach on the field cannot grasp how the opposing sideline WR is doing in coverage while also checking the two receivers on his side, plus keep up with how the line is doing and if the RB is in the groove. Heck, for the line alone he doesn't have the best view of where the RB is going to see success and how to best exploit it. Hence Rico saying, Yo coach, keep running this.  Still, all these things in there, no matter how hard I'm banging on that drum, I can't let it drown out my joy in getting one of those rare Ws. Even coaches can learn and grow from them. I sure hope he will.

      The Dowdle Mirage - Play Calling Problems

      By Basbear · Posted

      I fully understand the questioning of Dave and BY, just the timing of your concerns is my problem. NFL is ultra hard to pull off the perfect game. In all my years Ive never seen a HC have the perfect game plan and have great play call after great play call.  Tmac has helped in every game, honestly more than I thought he was going to show. It does look like he was in fact the reason to trade AT and allow Tamc to feast on his targets. I have re-watched the wins, I have seen Tmac get red zone looks. Brother, he's about the 80-90% of passing attack. Dave is young inexperienced HC and he's learning on the job, hope he improves along with BYs confidence.    Its going to be alllllll right, trust me as your co-pilot.

      You cannot hate his character, but he is holding the team back. There is so much we can't do because of his limitations. It just is what it is
