Offensive Line

We had a Top 10 run and pass blocking line under Wilks with mostly the same players on the line now. 

This isn't the line. This is coaching. This is offensive philosophy. This, my friends, is Tepper Ball. 

Somehow, under Wilks, we switched philosophies mid-season to the tune of a 300 yard rushing game and Sam, sans the Saints game, playing like a Top 10 QB.

We've regressed this much and it's not on the players. It's coaching. Put the blame where it lies. 

Tepper hired Reich. Tepper forced the trade up for a QB. Tepper forced us to draft Young. Tepper shut down the hiring of Steve Wilks, a Charlotte native who the team fought tooth and nail for. 

Don't blame Bryce, he was drafted about 15 spots too high. Don't blame Fitterer, had he quit, the same events would have transpired. Blame Tepper. 

Tepper Ball Bros! Someone, go make a T-Shirt with Tepper wearing a paper bag, while he's wearing the t-shirt of him wearing a paper bag. I'll buy it and promote it for you.

    • Sure, he's said that, but what it really means is that he's just going to insist on being a two way player and the Jags want him as such. But he won't be a starter who plays every snap on both sides in Week 1, if at all during his rookie year.  This is the NFL, no rookie, no matter how good they might be, is going to be able to go through their first mini and training camps while splitting time on both sides of the ball and be ready to be a week 1 starter and go full time both sides. And if a team does that, then they're dumb. I think their plan is to start him mainly on offense to give Lawrence another weapon, and I'm guessing it means he'll be a rotational CB early in the season, maybe he comes in when they go to nickel, even if he then plays the outside and someone else shifts inside.
    • Keep the peddle to the mettle the devils are gassed
    • YAC isn't the only way to be a threat. Thielen's ADOT was 11 yards last year. He's stressing a defense beyond its first level. Renfrow's 2023 ADOT was 5.6 yards. He's settling into a soft spot under a zone and the defense bets that they can rally and tackle before he gets to the marker. That kind of popgun slot receiver play is fine, but we should hope to be able to find that ability in someone who can also bring another skill, whether that's a vertical threat, or some jet sweep/screen game YAC  ability, or even just being very large and blocking well. Every time we trot Renfrow out there, we limit what the defense has to worry about.
