Face it, you will have some aspects of the old Fox era that are going to be better than the new Rivera regieme and vice-versa. People wanted more passing, well you got it. However, the running game is going to take a back seat in most cases and will not be the focal point of this offense.

On the defensive side of the ball, people bemoaned the vanilla read/react--bend, but don't break Fox defenses. We got an aggressive DC in here now and it still isn't good enough.

We traded in vanilla for moose tracks with caramel. The new flavor might have some draw backs, but this is what you all wanted instead of vanillia.

You wanted aggressive and we go it, so stop complaining about it. Being aggresive in the passing attack will bite us in the arse a time or two this season as well. Don't complain about it when it happens.

Aggressive doesn't bother me a bit, it was the senseless penalties, blown coverages and lack of running lanes that miffed me, none of which have to do with scheme, but execution.

For a rookie Coach, first time OC and I'll the other changes we've endured in a limited off season I'm pretty damn happy.

You have to keep your eyes on the big picture.

i don't think the run/pass ratio in this game is indicative of what will happen in most games, and was prob not what they planned on this game. i'm glad they took the reins off though b/c the blocking looked pretty poor on the line and the receivers weren't having many problems getting open. agree w/you overall though, people want to have there cake and eat it too, but that's just how people are. every scheme has a weakness and if we are going to blitz a lot we're going to get caught w/our pants down sometimes. i don't think anything was wrong w/the defensive strat

I was one of the few fans who liked zone defense with little to no blitzing, and especially Tampa-2. I'd rather build a front 4 that can get pressure without blitzing.

Who wouldn't want to be able to get pressure with 4 guys and drop 7 in coverage. A lot of teams are going away from a true cover 2 because the game is so offense friendly now. Teams that don't blitz get picked apart.

I agree. People like 400 yards passing, but complaing about the rushing attack. Kolb, was flushed out of the pocket all day and had to use his hot reads and check downs mostly, but bitch about getting burned a couple of times. It will happen.

I just find it ironic that we are now a seemingly passing team, yet "what happened to the rushing" and we aggressively pressure the mess out of the opposing QB, but yet we give up two big plays and it's "we're blitzing too often or at the wrong times".

It strikes me as odd.

If you get pressure with your front 4, then the opposing offense will get picked apart.

      I think the same thing, they don’t have any better options especially since Christiansen is out for the year

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
