So? He didn't want to play in Carolina. We had no shot at him anyway get over it.

You're not really good at reading right?  My point was...Rhule and Brady did NOT get who they wanted contrary to your dumbass post.

The last two days worth of threads and knocks on Joe Brady were expected and I contributed as well. Well my emotions have settled a little bit. Brady definitely has let us down as a fan base with his play calling based on the current situation of having a below average offensive line. However, I started to think about how much of his playbook is in the trash due to the poor performance of the offensive line, and what it could look like if we had an average to above average offensive line.

I think my question would be... If we had an offensive line that could give #14 .5-1 more seconds, are we looking at an entirely different playbook on Sunday? Is Joe Brady just bad because of his o-line? Have we ever seen a successful OC in the NFL with this kind of offensive line?

For those who are gonna state that we neglect the oline. Rhule and Co. elected to build the D first, we are feeling that. Im afraid the reverse of this situation would be much worse. I appreciate the build a strong D model and then build a strong offense (See Bills and Tampa). If we go another off season of ignoring the o line, then yes... raise the red flags. However, hearing our GM state "I am on the phone looking for offensive lineman" that should be encouraging. 
 

I don't think they need to necessarily hold longer, just with some consistency. There is no way Darnold trusts the 3 on the inside to hold their blocks. You can't expect him to go through his progressions effectively when he's expecting to get clobbered any second.

Give me a break with this lame tough guy act. If they didn't want him they wouldn't have traded for him you make it sound like they begrudgingly accepted him. They made the move for him now they have to deal with it and fix this mess.

Were they suppose to just not have a QB???  I mean, it's obvious Rhule and co. want to win.  They weren't rolling with PJ or Greer.  They had to take a shot on somebody.  So yeah, they went with their last option before the fug it just tank options.

Was there a better option this past offseason that I'm not aware of?

I've talked about Brady in a couple of threads today already.

No, he isn't the Sean Payton clone that we believed he'd be. That doesn't necessarily mean he won't be good though.

My most common statement on him is that he's way better at play design than he is at playcalling and game management. A big part of that is that regardless of how smart he is, he's inexperienced, and sometimes it shows.

That's not something you can change quickly. Obviously, it takes time.

It's a pretty common path in the NFL for a guy to become a head coach, fail at that, return to a coordinator job and be phenomenal at it.

Brady following that road wouldn't surprise me.

I'm not sure he's going to get a lot of interest after this year. His LSU buzz got him some interviews but he's not even putting up numbers like Chud was before he got a job. I mean stranger things have happened but I think he's learning on the job right now.

You're right.  He's not good at reading.

It was either draft or Sam or the farm for Watson before everyone found out about the skeletons in his closet. But yes Rhule and Fitterer were plenty happy to acquire Sam unless you think they are just liars. But if you want to really get down to it the qb Rhule and Brady chose first was Teddy they talked about him effusively to the press about that process and how he was exactly what they were looking for so
