This is where the whole "McDermott and Beane deserve to stay because of his win percentage" argument falls flat. McDermott and Beane have nothing to do with that TD. Allen bails us out weekly and scores 40+ every season. It would be impossible for any team not to have an elite win percentage with that kind of cheat code.
Our coaches don't have it. They make the same mistakes in critical games. Bad 3rd down play calls on both sides of the ball and now we are in the danger zone
Several of those 3rd down conversions had nothing to do with tackling. The dump off to Perine, yes. The rest was soft coverage giving easy reads to Burrow.
And the coaching staff can't adjust their philosophy against Burrow to save their life... I live with players making mistakes against a talented offense. I can't live with the coaching staff making the same old mistakes.
McDermott so worried about giving up the big play that he lets them take over half the quarter driving for a TD. Really getting sick of the same old story. He doesn't learn
You can see on that play Taron is so worried about getting beat deep he is standing flat footed instead of coming down to the open man. We are gifting them underneath passes with room to run. Have to play less scared than this.
