So what's the plan?

Everyone was getting mad at me the past few days for questioning Gettleman's "plan". Well now with most of the top FAs gone and 8-9 empty starting spots, I would like to hear what you Gettlenuthuggers see as his plan. So please, tell me what we could possibly do to have a competitive team this season. I need some optimism. Seriously.

I would like to hear such from Mage and Jangler, who ridiculed people for bashing Gettleman on the Smith trade. Nicks would have been nice, if we still had Smith, but last year he barely did better than a 35 year old.  Still, we were relying on a #2 to be our #1 and I couldn't have more displeasure.

 

So spin this hit Mage and Jangler?

It's fair. If we're all going to squeal "Gettlemagic" when he does something positive then his poor decisions can also be questioned. Gettleman's plan for the offseason is looking mighty poor and we better hope we get lucky enough in the draft and with free agent scraps for a second consecutive years if we want to be competitive this year.

Plan is to sign some band aid one year rentals.

Now isn't the time. After the draft we will know what are real rental holes are....

Then as the season approaches teams will cut all kinds of vet players. Boom goes the dynamite and Gettlemen gets his 1 yr rentals.

His plan doesn't involve overpaying for this wave of FAs. The cheap vets rejected right as the season start is his plan. Build in the draft.....rent the holes

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
