So Pete, someone else, and Pete

Id say that had been a major issue all year.

Soon as Nick writes that “Playcalling is a liability” piece, we’ll know a move is coming.

Everything old is new again

We're all well aware of the reasons for the issue. What we want to know is how are you as the head coach going to fix it?

 

[BarBar]

An issue going on 2 years now. How come Dennis Allen always seems 3-4 games behind in his assessment of the team??? This guy doesn't have a clue.

 

[Hoodoo]

Well, no shiz Sherlock. Now what are you going to do about it?

Play calls, execution, and coaching - sounds like 2/3 of the problem is coaching.

When you're too busy with keep doing what you're doing. You don't know the doing is or who is the do-er. All you know is you have to keep doing.

This is getting pretty old now. Red zone issues and not scoring enough points have been on for two years now.

this is what I almost wrote.

 

[St.Dan]

I’m waiting for him to say something like, “You know, there’s three big phases to every game — offense, defense and special teams.”



He’s still just a substitute teacher. One with a fairly large contract, though.

This is part of what I was talking about during the discussion of "upgrades." We finished 21st in the red zone last season and then went and got a QB that is normally rated as one of the worst QBs in the red zone. No on should be shocked by this outcome.

We could have a top 5 QB in there and they would struggle. You either have to go off script or completely scrap Pete's calls to make success out of this.
