Play calling...

yes we put up 35 points today and yes our defense is weak. However, we could've scored more points today or at least held onto the ball longer and had longer drives if Chud called better plays. Not saying we would've won anyway with the way our defense played, but...

I do not understand why Chud has such a problem with commiting to the run. We call a run play for a drive that goes for big yards and then call 2 straight failed pass plays. It doesn't make sense. If running is working, stick with it.

Chud also refuses to take small plays that could lead to good drives and instead calls for the home run pass almost all of the time. Yes we have had a better offense than the past, but all that has done is make our stat sheet look good instead of producing TDs. Yes today we scored more points, but other than today this is usually the norm. I truely believe we would have 3 more wins if the offensive play calling was better. Which wouldn't put us in the playoffs or anything, just saying.

    • Totally.  I'm less comparing them as players and using him as a reference point.  I legitimately think Bryce is capable of being a better NFL QB than Kyler has been.  Kyler has no clutch gene and doesn't seem to have a grip on the locker room, or much love for the game.  Much different body types/strengths and weaknesses.   Crazy to think-- but Kyler is at year 7 as a 1.01...38-48-1 on his career, 0-1 in the playoffs. He's somehow played well enough to keep it going but crazy to think he's barely even touched the playoffs.  Hasn't done anything that special for the Cards.  That's what you don't want to be stuck in.  Cardinals are in softball purgatory with him.    
    • It's not analysis. There was no attempt to analyze anything or even convey new information at all.
    • As to the topic, I've complained before about "superstar" mentality, i.e. the notion that you can win championships with one superstar player surrounded by a group of mediocre fill ins. It just doesn't work. The Manning-Brady rivalry was something of a showcase for that. The Colts general approach focused everything on Manning. The Patriots? Oh, they also had a superstar quarterback but they built a complete team, especially on the defensive side. This sort of thing is why I've argued many times that "system quarterback" should be to considered a description, not an insult. I know everybody loves the "MVP" athletic types, and they're fun to watch, but that's not necessarily the true path to consistent winning and championship glory.
