Week 1's "Step Into My Office"

My nominees:

  • Special teams - Specifically the dumbass gunners who ran past Peterson on his punt return, stopped, turned around, looked at him, then appeared to wait for the whistle to be blown as if they thought he had called for a fair catch. There was at least one guy that did this standing about 10 yards behind Peterson when he caught it, and I believe there was actually two guys. Inexcusable.
  • Sean McDermott - All out blitzes on multiple 3rd downs, twice resulting in epically blown coverages for long TDs. Really disappointed in his calls. Some made sense, but these did not. Yes, I love the aggressive style, but that doesn't mean you do it the whole game, especially on 3rd downs with us controlling the game, against a team with Larry Fitzgerald (who usually requires double coverage).
  • Offensive Line - Horrible. Absolutely horrible. Ugly. Pathetic. Disgusting. Any other QB would have been sacked at least 6 to 7 times today. Run game couldn't get going at all because they couldn't hold their blocks. Just horrible. Worst part is, this is probably what we are stuck with.
  • Every WR not named Smitty or LaFell - Big, physical WRs that are not physical and can't get open. Thanks. Experiment over. Please sign Donnie Avery.
  • Merrill Hoge, Nawrocki, Peter King, and any other Cam hater - STFU.

That being said, if we shore these areas up, we have an awesome team. Regardless, I expect 7 wins is a realistic expectation. This Packers game is gonna be tough though...

I would invite whoever gave Beason clearance to play today

I was actually gonna add that as well, but that was a hard call either way. I said in the preseason that I expected him to be out for awhile and that I thought the injury was much more serious than they let on.

Really disappointing.

the blitz that resulted in the TD. 7 guys came on the blitz. 4 were left to cover 5 receivers.

d'oh.

the punt return. Everyone thought he was fair catching. He didn't. d'oh.

Can't win too many games giving away 14 points like they grow on trees.

I, personally, would add Chud to that list as an honorable mention.

His play calling was better than Fox's, but we abandoned the run early. A simple change to unbalanced o-line ups and off tackle runs gave us some daylight, but he didn't keep it up. It could have made a huge difference to our run game had they started using less conventional run plays. There should have been more draws too.

      The other draft picks have turned out pretty well. Brooks will too.

      Updated 2025 draft order

      I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.
