Give me some hope. Can this offense be turned around?

Unlike all the crybabies that want us to lose so that they can write juvenile open letters to David Tepper, I'm trying to remain hopeful here.

Can our offense turn it around? Can the OL gel? Can Baker get it together? Give me a few reasons to think it's a possibility.

Also, is Darnold still alive? Is he even on the sidelines? 

Bonus points if you can explain to me why our secondary sucks and is reverting to a Rivera soft zone.

It will turn around once Sam is put in week 5 or week 6. 

Baker is so fundamentally bad, I question what the coaches were looking at during training camp. He has the absolute worst footwork in the pocket of any starting QB in the league. The problems he displays in games actually showed up in training camp i.e cant see over linemen, having to move out of pocket to see throwing lanes, terrible feet in the pocket. Just the absolute worst

 

Baker is officially the worst rated starting QB in the league now. Just terrible

If the Oline keeps improving it can mask alot of deficiency... Play calling may get better with more trust.. But my money is the Oline ..

I feel like the offensive line has played horrible and is to blame a lot for Baker sucking. I also would love to know how many passes has been dropped by our team this season, it seems like a lot.

 

I guess the positive is that our offense can’t get any worse.

About what?

I don't think the Oline has been horrible... Alot of Bakers problem are on Bakers and the play calling has been vanilla.. But Oline has steady improved every game.. Run blocking has been way better than last year.. I actually see team having to stacked the box and we still get plus plays.. Pass blocking is coming along with Baker having more time then Darnold and Teddy.. Plus simple stunts and blitzes aren't automatically working against them.. Teams are actually having to use some exotic stuff to get pressure this year.. Last year they could bring 4 and destroy the oline..

Maybe I’m wrong, but I feel that Baker seems to be under pressure a lot. Yes our run game has improved but is that because we have CMC?

      Crazy stat

      By Luuuuuuuuuuke59 · Posted

      The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By 45catfan · Posted

      This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
