Curious as to What Underhill and Triplett Are Saying about Organizational Change

lol Nick is Nick, he's always emotionally engaged. It's why he didn't stay in New England, he didn't feel that emotional connection w/ the city like he does here in New Orleans. He's a fan too, yet like much of us...I agree, his takes will become more subdued once he escapes the season.

However, I've noticed that typically my emotional reactions during the season...were very accurate and having time to cool down, while it brought a more logical thought process, it also gave more time for the negative to seem less negative...which is dangerous when you're deciding.

Whatever this team looks like the last 2-4 games of the season should be exactly what you measure them on. They are not detail oriented, they're making dumb mistakes, they have no depth, and a lot of guys aren't being used correctly. They don't like creativity and the defense in particular has trouble facing more modern offenses. They can't run block worth a crap and the playcalling typically s**** after the first half and so does the energy.

Those are their problems.

I usually don't listen to the post game stuff and usually later in the week he is more calm and less emotional and I guess I prefer the less emotional and more analytical approach. Yes, there are dangers to that, and I have likely fallen for looking at things too analytically at times, but that's just my nature and honestly part of what I like about your posts.

Anway, I agree that they need to view this team as the team that played the last 6 or so weeks of the season and act accordingly. I think they need a total makeover of the staff and they need to churn the bottom half of the roster to find better backups either in the draft or on cheap free agent deals. I don't think the offensive scheme is bad, but I don't think Kubiak is the right guy to implement it because he lacks creativity and isn't a good play caller once he is off the script.

And yes, the defensive scheme needs to be updated. At this point we can't stop the run or pass and I don't think all of that is lack of talent.

In short, I think this team still reflects DAs personality which isn't a good thing. It's too passive and lacks energy and creativity.
