In the end? Yeah, I think it matters if your QB plays scared or not. Because those situations will always exist. With improved OL play….it can collapse quickly. No point having a panicking and turnover prone QB. Fix the OL. Sam still is Sam.

But are you David Carr’d when your play never actually changes. again, he was the same happy foot, can’t read a field, turnover machine at USC. His turnover stats and fumbles in college were absurd. only difference is in the pros there isn’t a massive talent gap on his team vs the opponents to make it not a big deal

Shula actually had some pretty nice run schemes. He would be a nice run game coordinator working under a good OC.

Nice work. Thanks. And yes, we are worse in every single aspect under Nixon. Brady wasn’t the problem. The problem rhymes with drool.

Love him or hate him. Ron went out and got a talented QB to tie his fate to. He started building a new team…..and we saw it coming together the 2nd half of year 2. He earned a 3rd year. Matt Rhule is no Ron Rivera. Seen too many reporters (Scott Fowler) try to draw parallels….which we clearly aren’t seeing

Which coaches were those? And Ron didn’t get fired because of how his team ended up performing in year 2. One that clearly was being built and the results were evident and showing. Super strong finish to year 2 by a NFL guy. Pete Carroll’s 2nd year as a NFL HC was his first year in New England. He won 10 games. And he largely was a NFL guy before becoming a HC. He basically has been a NFL coach since the 80s. Took a break to go to college and came back.

While not good. PJ and Cam don’t play scared. Sam does.

Did you watch the Giants yesterday? They basically gave up and weren’t even pretending like they were trying to win. Glennon had like 4 yards going into the 4th.

and talk about a poo play too. Rhule said they were setting up a hook and lateral. Which might of been true. Like all things Matt Rhule….the play wasn’t even setup to work if it wasn’t picked. Hubbard was miles away from crossing over for a pitch. Teddy was spot on about this team not practicing and preparing properly. Still evident.

Nixon makes Joe Brady look good. Well maybe not good but the O was better under Brady. Bout time someone in the media calls Rhule on that. we score less points, have less yards, run for less yards, and take more sacks under Nixon compared to Brady.

I think Tampa looks really bad here. Basically willing to exploit a sick man for a ring. He shouldn’t of been playing football. Not saying Tampa held the solution for AB….but talk about not giving a fug.

I’ve never bought that because they Jets didn’t ruin him. He was the same guy at USC. It’s in his QB DNA and that never changes IMO.

This should be what a HC says about Sam Darnold lol

He got an Uber. Uber driver posted video driving him around

It’s been clear he isn’t mentally well for some time.

Is there anything we do better now that Brady is gone? We score less points. Have less yards.

We should get rid of the chicken and the egg. I still see no reason Matt Rhule should get a year 3.

I mean, you basically acknowledge my point in your first paragraph. A legit NFL staff is able to mitigate the impact of how bad the OL is throughout a game. This staff hangs them out to try. it’s been discussed early this season back when Joe Brady was fired that this staff isn’t able to scheme and gameplan at this level. That shows as the season goes along and in each game. Rhule and company are playing checkers and that gets a bad OL heavily exploited as a game goes along.

He has 3 straight 1000+ yard seasons with horrific QB play in all 3. DJ Moore is a very good WR. We need DJ Moores. We don’t need Robby Andersons.

Sam Darnold has never been good. Not at USC. Not in NY. Not here. He has always been the same dude. Protection. No protection. Same consistent bad QB. what if we signed Dwayne Jarrett of the street after all these years and he turned into prime 89?? We can ask all sorts of questions that aren’t going to happen.

Weak OL needs good coaching and playcalling. We have a bad OL and bad coaching/play calling. And bad QB play.

OL does suck. But if it is all the OL and not coaching (lack thereof)…..why does the OL manage to allow somewhat respectable offense early and then get blown up after they get a chance to look at our whack game plans? Check the first quarter vs 3rd. Same thing each week. and why does the OL offense work every time Rhule debuts a new QB? And then once he keeps putting the same guy out there it turns to poo. if it is all OL and not also coaching….you wouldn’t see the clear discrepancies

Panthers get worse and worse as the year goes on… Panthers get worse and worse as each game goes on…. that’s coaching. That’s not OL. That’s not QB play. We might not be able to win with our OL and QB play…..but the fact we always get worse is Matt Rhule and his college staff. It’s a joke. All it takes is a little bit of football and every opponent figures out this amateur hour clown show and Matt Rhule and company can coach and compete vs legit NFL staffs. offense generally exists every 1st quarter. That’s how we know it isn’t all the OL. Our opponents just figure out the trash game plans and then blow it up. It’s why after the half it’s ballgame and nothing happens. Such a joke.

disagree. It isn’t just the OL and the proof IMO has been documented throughout the season. A lot of it isn’t all the OL. Sam’s first couple games he looked decent. PJ’s first game he looked decent vs AZ. Cam first game and his first start vs Washington he looked decent. That’s a consistent trend. The reason for that is there was uncertainty about what we were doing on offense. The result? Offensive line wasn’t an issue. And there was offense. Without or without CMC. once opposing coaches know what this horrible staff is doing? They lay the smack down on our offense and our staff can’t do anything about it. They aren’t a NFL coaching staff and opposing coaches are exploiting it. Another example of that is how things get worse every week after half time. We are out coached consistently. It’s why our O disappears as the game gets going. But exists initially out is the gate most weeks. If it was just all an OL issue….the O production would be more consistent in terms of not having it.

yes the OL sucks. The one Matt Rhule put together. But Sam sucks. Which makes the OL look even worse. and our offensive gameplans and playcalls suck. Which makes the OL look even worse.
