Lets get some new offensive weapons. Some guys that can really break the big one. A new running back that can take it to the house on any run. Sound good? 

 

Ok, one small caveat though... much of this new improved offense will hinge on Ed Dickson.

 

Everyone good? Good. 

 

Let's go!

the truth is after gettleman was fired and hurney brought back i am convinced i don't have a clue about anything this team does.

it's not a matter of getting shocked or upset about anything they do. i don't know that anything could freak me out, tbh. whatever happens, happens.

this has pretty much been me regarding anything they've done since then....

If a guy like Armah wasn't in the cards for the evolution of the offense, then we're not trying to evolve very much. Guys like him, when used correctly, are awesome weapons. Armah demonstrated an ability to make strong blocks, hustle on special teams, and make a play with the ball in his hands.

Dickson and Olsen aren't blockers and I don't care how much the team, the players themselves, and the fans want to say "Dicksons our blocker TE and Greg practices on the sleds every year to be well rounded and never leaves the field." At the end of the day, they are both mediocre blockers and we shouldn't rely on them to be our blockers. Prior to this season with McCaffrey, Stew has had to battle behind the line of scrimmage and at the first level because our TEs are mediocre blockers. Stew is not fast enough to get away at the beginning. This fact is even more noticeable when we see McCaffrey play. McCaffrey is partially there to conceal our sub-par TE blockers. Fournette would look like poo like Stew does most of the time in this offense and it's because we wanna pretend that Greg and Dickson are actual blockers.

Investing in this offensive evolution means we should invest in a fuging FB who can make plays too. Armah was potentially another swiss army knife that we're gonna leave on the PS now. How many PS guys grow into players on this team? It's the back of the refrigerator where good food gets left to spoil. If you believe he is talented but raw, you find ways to work him into the game and you give him time with the 1s and 2s. No one is gonna hone their craft against PS guys.

We deserve to lose him to a team that's willing to give him a roster spot and a chance to practice against actual talent. 

Well said and deserves some pie.

I feel the same way. I pretty much understood why Gettleman did things even if I didn't always agree. But with Hurney, I'm not getting the understanding of it and his explanations, to me, are coming out of right field and not making any sense. And unfortunately my memories of the Hurney years have a lot of baggage attached. So I will sit and I will watch and I will wait.

So where's the psquad signing? We lost him didn't we? Over a sorry ass kicker smh

I might be wrong but I believe he has to clear waivers ( at least 24 hrs maybe more) don't know if it has been long enough
