The REAL Elephant in the Room..

A question I've been asking myself and perhaps you all can lend your view...

Sean McDermott deserves credit... how much?

Commentators spoke of JJ smiling over this beating.. or do you feel the Panther's beat themselves?

Just throwing out two extremes.. I would imagine it falls somewhere in the middle..

as bad as Jake played today doesn't mean McDermott shouldn't get credit.

he called a very good game.

this is why he was my first choice for new DC (even though the eagles wouldn't let him go)

I think Zone schemes are out, while pressure oriented man cover blitzing 4-3s are the way to go.

If he keeps up the good work, he might be in line for a head coaching job come 2010, and depending on how good or bad we do could be here.

I don't think you can blame it on one thing... sure, Jake can get more blame than some, but... ST coverage sucked, defense played OK, but really didn't stop the Eagles offense or get very much pressure on McNabb, the o-line was a seive, Jake played like a high school freshman, the coaches did not adapt at all (at least they had the sense to bench Jake this time).

Overall it was a team effort of suckiness.

    • If we are going to spend the money anyway, maybe the signing is not as bad as it seems.  Mays outperformed Corbett (before his injury and if you go back to last year, Corbett has been below average) and then Christensen took the job and Mays quickly took it from him and never looked back.  He could use improvement reaching to the next level (LBs) but picking up stunts and blitzes---he was surprisingly good.  Run blocking needs some work, but he is 25.  Corbett, in my view, should be G/C depth and if Mays steps back, he is there.  Mays should start because this team is building for the future and 30 year old players are not building blocks.  We shall see.  That is how I think about it, but there are many factors we do not know. Having said that, I like what Zavala is doing, and I do not want to bring in someone who would take opportunities away from him.  Zavala was really good at RG down the stretch, and in limited duty, was awesome. In fact, we have a guard from the PS who played briefly and did well, but he only played a few plays.  He is 25 and I recall that fans of his former team were upset when we signed him.   Maybe as the backup center only (Corbett).  You need 2 centers to run practices efficiently.  I cannot say enough about the OL coaches on this staff.  What they have done is overshadowed by the Lewis / Hunt signing.  Mays, Ekwonu, Zavala--impressive growth.
