Shenault

As I was breathing a sigh of relief, that we had actually won a game that our offense didn’t show up to! I asked myself, where was Shenault the first 3 quarters? This staff is still full of question marks. It’s like he had a good kick return and they realized, hey, maybe we could try this guy at receiver since we’ve sucked all day!

He’s a gadget player and they called play for him which prob caught the saints off guard. I doubt he a gonna be a world beater on a weekly basis.  

It was actually a good call by the staff for once.  No need to reverse engineer this to discredit them.  They make enough mistakes on their own.

He probably didn’t have many plays that they repped with him. I believe I saw he was in for about 5 plays. Impact on two of them. One of them was specifically drWn up for him, and his TD play he was the check down receiver. 
 

it isn’t like madden, where you sub him in and he is on every play. He joined the team a month ago.

Thank you, seem like people don't understand that.

That’s basically what Rhule said in the PC, even on the TD, he wasn’t Baker’s first read per Rhule.

Actually according to Rhule's Presser, we had a play designed for him earlier in the game and they took him away, and then the play he scored on wasn't even designed for him, or at least he wasn't the primary...  they took away the primary so Baker checked it down to Laviska, and he did all the heavy lifting from there.

But as I said in the game thread, the plays he made today came off simple routes and duties that he could've done week 1 with little to no familiarity with our "system" (KRs, flat and drag routes).  So I just don't know why he wasn't playing earlier.  He is dynamic.

    • And again, the TLDR of the above is........ My expectations for T-Mac's rookie season have nothing to do with him and more because of my expectations for the rest of the WR room. I think his 2nd season when we then lose Thielen and replace him by just shifting everyone else up a spot in the pecking order and replace him with an end of the bench guy, is when he explodes for a huge yardage season. XL and Coker wouldn't make a good 1/2 combo with Thielen in the slot.  But T-Mac as the 1 with Thielen in the slot has the real potential to make XL/Coker an actual elite 2/4 combo.  Drafting T-Mac drastically changes the potential impact of those two, if anything, that's the biggest thing taking him did to the offense. Because honestly, how many teams have a 3rd and 4th receiving option as good as XL and Coker?
    • good one though it’s really no joke. I know a few friends and family members that suffer with this condition. 
    • There's nothing normal about a 73 year old dating a 24 year old and a wildly successful NFL coach going to the college level in his twilight years is unprecedented. Yeah, raving success or absolute clown show. We'll see how it plays out on the field but this is why I was always very apprehensive about going after Belichick. The odds of it going the clown show route seem to be increasing by the day.
