Interesting stuff. Kalil and other players comments have led me to believe Chud's play calling was very popular among players. Also i really feel bad for Beast and no wants to see him come back more than his fans.

 

Chuds playcalling WAS POPULAR or  UNPOPULAR? Lol

 

Most I've heard from, it didn't sound so popular.

yeah, appears he was a problem to most everyone in the locker room who speaks on Chud (or asked about him)...

 

 

seems like they would know best...

 

 

 

 

edit:  heard the interview, he didn't mention him specifically, but pretty much word for word with what others have said...

Chud's the easy scapegoat, since he's gone, but he was here when we finished winning 5 of the last 6, and that's what they'll try and reproduce going forward. If we have a good season and get in the playoffs I don't care who gets the credit for this year or the blame for last year. The good and bad labels are gonna get applied to the likely targets no matter what.

We don't know what goes on behind the scenes. Maybe Shula was more involved in game planning for those last few games. We had a huge turnaround in what we were doing offensively and it's hard to believe anyone would overhaul the play calling after 1 1/2 seasons of the same ish without outside opinions.

I do believe Chuds want to constantly run the read option actually hurt us more than it helped. Cams got all the tool to be a great play action QB so he can improvise with his legs if he has to.

I would like to see him get to the point of making changes on the line based on what he sees. If he was able to audible into a read option because he sees that the numbers are in their favor, make that decision.

    • It's not even a particularly nuanced opinion, yet it seems out of reach for so many.
    • I don’t think he can be great. For me he tops out as starter maybe make the playoffs, stuff like that. I would have been okay with that kind of player as a placeholder but you don’t invest the time and assets we did and be happy with that.  On the cure,If a guy has mechanical flaws but otherwise is enticing, you let someone else make the mistake of taking him in the top of the 1st. If he doesn’t get taken you can pick him up 2nd or 3rd day and try to develop him (off the bench not starting).  The risk/reward with Bryce was horribly misjudged. I didn’t want to trade like that in the first place because I didn’t see the generation talent that justifies that type of move, but once it was done CJ was the better gamble. No doubt. 
    • That's what I mean. If you claim to possess some super knowledge about the QB position from a previous non-football but football related job, wouldn't you want to expound upon that to support this "everyone doesn't know anything about being a QB" thesis? The rest is just summed up by stating that there are a lot of variables to a QB being successful. Yeah....I mean that isn't earth shattering.  While there is certainly a lot of luck involved in all manners of success, consistent success with the variables around you also changing on a regular basis is usually fairly conclusive.  Is Trent Dilfer the same as Tom Brady? Is Nick Foles the same as Patrick Mahomes? I supposed based on the OP's arguments, they are. That's not really the way it turned out, however.  The NFL isn't unlike most other jobs or even other sports. The cream typically does rise to the top on a more consistent basis. Is it accidental that premier poker players seem to win or perform very well on a consistent basis, give that any individual hand is largely luck?
