  1. I will say it again. WE ARE ONE PLAYER AWAY on offense.

     

    All we need is a right tackle.

     

    Peters-Gandy-Preston/Teague-Villareal-RT?

     

    That is an above-average line right there. As bad as this season has been, I really don't think we need major changes. One RT, 2 DTs, I think we're set.

     

    I'm serious.

  2. Neither of them had head-coaching experience prior to being hired for their current jobs.

     

    Neither did Lovie Smith, Romeo Crennel, Mike Nolan, or Jack Del Rio.

     

    Let's draw lines where they make sense - it's all about the right guy for the job, not some re-tread reject like Fassel, Mooch, Haslett, Wade, or Sherman, just because they have "experience."

  3. Losman has many tools that can be coached but not taught.  Strong arm, quickness, and agility to name a few.  The accuracy is off because his timing is off.  When he knows where he wants to throw it he pulls the trigger and puts it where he wants.  When he's uncertain his rythm is upset, and poor mechanics follow.  The uncertainty will lessen and his accuracy will increase.

     

    The kid's a keeper but we have to design gameplans that put him in a balanced attack so opponents don't dictate where he can throw.  Other coaches teams know how they'd defend an inexperienced QB, and they defend JP accordingly.  Knowing this, our coaches have to their plan with their own.  Give him a running game, and a less predictable passing attack - his progressions will find a 1st or 2nd option open more often.  Then watch his timing, accuracy and confidence build.

    Excellent post.

  4. After watching some replay of Sunday's game, one glaring problem stood out (ok, two, but I don't want to talk about Bennie anymore):

     

    Damian Shelton

     

    What about him? He sucks. Whiffs blocks, runs the wrong way, gets pushed backwards by just about anyone, plays too stiff and upright, and gets in Willis's way. Other than that, nothing.

     

    Bench him. Cut him? Don't care. Play the young kid with something to prove and a body that hasn't worn down from being a sledgehammer for 7 years in the NFL. While you're at it, cut Neufeld too, because he doesn't want to hit anyone, either.

     

    When will this team get tough?
