Just start by bringing in an offensive coordinator. O'Connell is not competent.
It's the same offense he has been running (poorly) for the past three years. Long, developing plays that are hard to run with poor protection. He's trying to fit a square peg into a round hole and appears to be too stubborn to change.
I can't even remember the last time I saw a slot receiver catch a ball over the middle for a pass. There is almost no creativity. We have no identity.
While this post by Brad is true since Cousins, is was not true when Cousins last played in Minnesota.
Cousins started out slow in his playoff game against the Giants, probably could have used more check downs and outlets. When he checked down on the final play, he just needed to either checkdown a lot sooner (Brady sometimes did that, and the WR or TE would convert the long 3rd or 4th down), or made the better choice and tried to hit JJ for the 1st down.
It goes without saying O'Connell's game planning hasn't been effective and lacks creativity. Whatever his game plan was Monday the Bill's defense was ready for it.
Game planning isn’t the key. It will be what he can check in and out of and blocking. That is where Kirk is best. He just knows where the ball should be thrown.
On third and 19 he'll check down, guaranteed.
I know people are going to instantly think I believe the Cousins move was a terrible move, but I don't. We were stuck in a gigantic shithole given our 6-0 start to the season and now having some of the worst quarterback play on the planet.
As long as the guy isn't the starter next season with a new contract, I'm okay with the move for the remainder of the season. I always said Cousins was the most overpaid player in the league the last time around. Now he is getting paid what he is deserved, about $650k for the rest of the season. To me, he'll always be the guy that led the Anti-Vax movement, which was as irresponsible of a move as I have ever seen by a guy making that much money. He's the RFK Jr. of the league.
IMO, the move has pretty much ended the career of Kyler Murray.
Talk about your politics somewhere else. Preferably the thread titled no one gives a shit but you thread.
Kyler's play ended his career as a starter here......odds are he won't be done. He may have to be a backup or someone else probably will give him a chance.
The guy was supposed to be a leader. He put his team in harm's way. Like it or not, that's football talk.
Weird you bring that up but nothing in Herbert or Darnold's closet like ever.
Troll.
Both Herbert or Darnold got vaccinated, recognizing that there was a killer virus circulating the globe at a rapid pace. A virus that has claimed 7,115,203 lives.
Is that good enough for you?
People who got the shot got covid
People who got the shot spread covid
People who got the shot died from covid.
I guess you could make the point that, at that time, we didn't know what we know now.
Or you could make the point that, after the fact, people come up with dumbass phrases to make themselves feel good.
