Correction Week

[Mr. Scot]

The NFL has a lot of "corrections". The first drive of a game, for example, doesn't always tell the whole story (that's been a pretty common one for us).

Likewise, Week 1 of the season is often a bit illusory.

A lot of conclusions that people draw based on what they observed in the first game of the year will turn out to be false by the next week, or the next.

And others... won't.

That's why this Sunday's performance is something to which we should pay very close attention.

If the team comes out looking at least half decent on both offense and defense (especially run defense) then the upcoming weeks might not be so bad.

But also sad to say that if we start out looking flat again and the defense is still giving up chunks of yards from the get go, we could be looking at a disaster of a season.

So what will it be? Don't know, but I'm ready to find out.

See ya Sunday

The long road to Top 3 draft pick is upon us.

That's...one possibility, yeah

Hopefully we correct actions like this....

True words. Having so many of the same issues on the D does not leave me with any real hope. I expect the O to improve some but I am not expecting much from  this RPO system agaisnt good teams.

I was a bit concerning when they didn't have some sort of success on the first drive. That drive is scripted and shows a bit of how bad we have it in the coaching department. Everyone knows Baker didn't have a full offseason with us but that should have been known. Same for the defense. Did they watch any tape?

Last year our trademark was looking good only on the 1st drive lol.

Yes, if we look better week 2 then there is some hope.

If there isn't a very noticeable difference in week 2, don't expect to see much of an improvement throughout the season. 

They have to make things right this week....or it's going to be a long one for those who decide they want to keep watching that poo.

Saquon Barkley got 164 yards rushing on 18 carries against Tennessee. He added another 6 receptions for 30  yards.  Team totaled 238 total rushing yards against a decent Titans defense. 

I'm not liking our chances here.

Well good thing we corrected that.

In my experience as a fan I’ve never seen run defense improve in a season or over a season(outside of the 2006 Colts in the playoffs). No matter the team they all want to run the ball and exploit you where possible. 
 

I just don’t see any d linemen getting heavier, stronger, or quicker very fast. Snow’s scheme doesn’t seem that flexible to put more bodies on the line.

if you watch the all22 Ian is shoved in the back by the safety and falls into DJ. This is just half second perfect screenshot to make it look like they are blocking each other.

A half second screen shot of a blown assignment which lead to that. MG is in our backfield before CMC is even at the LOS. I stand by my statement.

Why watch all 22 when you can parrot meme drivel?
