Yeah they are making a good point on the radio. When does a good team ever look like they did on the last drive? They had a chance there with 1 minute and one timeout and just slowed down and didn't look like they knew what they were doing.
He said in his presser pretty much that they were looking to tie. Allen said they were playing for the 30 yard line.
Obviously they were looking for closer.
Mcds defense is holding teams generally to 20 points or less. That's pretty good. If you mean the way he coaches in terms of game day etc then I'm open to hearing that. The record is everything for mcdermott.
The offence is what worries me under mcdermott.
That's just as well then. ?. No decisions should be made at 6-3.
If it's still the case later in the season that Allen, Ford, Oliver, Edmunds are struggling Beane and folks will know their jobs are on the line in the not so distant future.
With a project QB a year/ two years down the line
- with all the practice and further physical / mental experience the project QB gets, they are of course going to be further evaluated to get you closer to the answer of you what you didn't know when you drafted him -
Whether he is good enough or not. Whether he will fulfil the potential to be good enough.
There is an argument also to put it on their shoulders to see if they have it.
I don't see anything close to Wilson, rothlesburger or Brady at this point.
I'm in the Allen not being good enough camp but I take your point about mcdermott at times. Is Allen great with a mcvay type coach? I don't know. With a record like 6-3 he isn't going anywhere though.
