To make the assumption that a DC knows nothing about offense is asinine.

What do DC's spend countless hours in the film room studying? The other team's defense? Nope. They spend all of their time watching and learning the oppositions offense. In fact, every year they study at least 12 offenses in this league. They take note of what works, what doesn't, strengths and weaknesses.

No, they don't typically have experience in coaching individual offensive positions or implementing the schemes. That's the job of the OC and O Staff. But in terms of what schemes and ideology may fit our personell the best, a DC that has studied a wide variety of NFL offenses in depth may be the ideal choice.

I agree. The same can be said the other way around. There are head coaches that are "offensive minded" and their teams have great defenses.

Ron Rivera's experience as a player and DC will help him pick the best OC for our personnel (and DC too).

      Complementary Football, or: How to Lose a Game

      My read is they intended to try and get points but that first run and usage of the clock was done to hedge against things going poorly. Basically they shouldn't need all that time to score since they had multiple timeouts. Dirting that second play put us in a no-win situation. Sure you can run on 3rd down but ARI had timeouts so they still likely get the same result.

      Can we all admit it now?

      I never said he had a good game in the Denver game.  As you said we had a good first drive ending in Bryce throwing a slant to XL for a TD.  It was garbage time but the back shoulder throw to Coker for the late TD was a great throw.   Throws like these in bad games are why I say he "can" do it and has the physical tools.  The question is can he do it consistently, continue to improve, grow and become our QB of the future.  Up to this point that was a hard no but with a new head coach and Bryce in his 2nd year it was 100% the right call to play out the year and see if he got better.  He did.   Two games into this year is still more of the up and down quality of play and coaching but there is still plenty of potential and we have 16 more games to decide if it's worth it to continue down this path. I don't know what will happen but I know cutting him or benching him now makes zero sense on any level. I said of those last 10 games we were only blown out in 2 of them.  I'll concede the Denver game was a blow out.  So 3 blowout loses and 7 competitive games, 4 of which we won, all decided by less than a TD.  Sounds like a team growing, improving and getting better.  All I want to do is see where that leads and if those examples of starting NFL level quarterbacking can continue to improve and become more consistent.   Anyone with pride would retire?  Laughable.  Do all of you quit in your daily lives every time things get tough or don't go your way?
