Now Moving Forward... Going "0 For" In Third Down Conversions

Nothing wrong with talking about what we can do to improve as a team. It's pretty obvious by your comments you didn't see a second of the game today. Because our offense today doesn't get us anywhere in the playoffs.

??? pretty sure by your comment you didn't read what i wrote. you have some kind of reading comprehension problem? did i say nothing was wrong? 

 

i suggested worry about what went wrong tomorrow and just enjoy the win.

All things considered, blitzing that much should result in them getting burned quite a bit... which they weren't until that last drive and DeAngelo's TD run earlier. I think this goes back to the playcalls. If you have 7 people blitzing, you've got one-on-ones across the board and the possibility of a back being completely unaccounted for. So someone SHOULD be open and Cam should be able to hit them quickly when presented with such a blitz. I don't ever see a 'hot read' there for him though...

 

Ignoring my earlier post about just enjoying the win. I agree with you. Where are cam's hot reads? Why are we calling for long developing plays on 3rd and 4th? Shula has got to get it fixed.

Problem is none of our receivers are quick or physical enough out of the gate to beat their man one on one.

Ginn needs time to get accelerated, LaFell isn't quick enough nor is he a "go up 'n get it" guy.

Smith is really the only wide out you can trust in those situations, but we didn't have him for most of the game.

Olsen is our best bet at beating that, but on heavy blitzes we generally need him to help pick up the blitz.

I enjoyed the win, still enjoying the win, and had the same thought myself about this topic...I'm sure you read the topic before you clicked on it, sooooooooo.....next time keep scrolling.

 

How about you mind your business? Next time you see a post from me don't respond just keep scrolling because I damn sure don't care about yours.

I have yet to see a slant route from Shula this year. I know we are a vertical pass team but at some point you have to say fug it we need this.

Everyone saying that we need to worry later and enjoy the win are dillusional. Can't we do both.  Because I guaran-damn-tee ya that Riverboat, Shula, and the rest of the offensive coaches are worrying about the 3rd down conversions.  Great win, I'm still drinking beer, celebrating, and already thinking about stomping the poo out of the dirty birds. 

 

24 tackeles and an interception? Are you friggin' kiddin' me....that's insane!

This sounds very similar to the advice I just gave you....surpised you didn't start it with "A wise man once told me...".but really though, bringing up a valid point means that a fan isn't as excited as the next that we one? That's ill logic. But anyway, "Keep Scrolling"- I mean "Keep Pounding!"

    • Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.
    • How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.
    • I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
