Stan, you should be well aware of how I feel about our offensive personnel.  There are too many plays that have happened today that failed as a result of horrible personnel.  The problem is, Shula doesn't call plays to our strengths or to cover up our weaknesses either.  There is no flow or rhythm.  It's like he doesn't think about anything but the immediate play and it puts us in horrible positions. 

I'm not going to say Shula is the best OC in the league, he's not.  But he's not the worst.  Honestly we were built offensively to run the ball and with our personnel we aren't good enough right now to do that.  And with the drops by the wide receivers, offensive linemen being pushed into Cam, we can't pass very well either.  That's the only 2 options we have run or pass.  

I also laugh when I see people commenting on play designs.  Truth is every team in the NFL has 90% of the same plays, they just have different names for them.

In the end it's not about Shula, it's about personnel and with the salary cap you can't have a great offense AND a great defense (unless you fuging draft like Nostradamus) so the coordinator with the short stick is going to catch the flak...and I get that, but it's just flawed thinking.

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
