You don't have to defend the pass more than 40 yards downfield

Rams -7 Saints -8 Chargers +4 Colts +5

I'm sure Jon Gruden would love to part with a 1st rounder for AB.

At least you're going with your boots on.

Makes me wonder what happened in AZ that drove him out.

I was thinking he should be working the Oklahoma drill all camp next year. Of course I don't even know if they're allowed to run it anymore. As I said in the other thread, it did look like he was getting up in the play during the last series. We'll see if the coaches can get in his head. Belichek can provide some learning moments in the film room so we'll see how Edmunds reacts next week.

For what it's worth it looked like on the last series he was a little more aggressive. Hopefully that will continue, but it looks like he has a way to go.

Dawkins did just fall over

Sure. So the game day threads become "opportunities". You can always click on them in case you want to give them another chance, but I don't remember reversing any.

Yep, just click on their username and hit ignore user then check all the boxes and save

Yep, I doubt he's ever had to anticipate or think much to dominate at lower levels. Just keep him in space as much as possible, seems soft to me.

Why bother, Edmunds is a non-factor

I'm talking as a coach, not on the roster. Barkley would be the backup and we could have a younger player.

Mainly basing it on Josh's comments after Derek was brought on. If he can guide Josh on how to prepare/be a pro then it's worth it. Just doesn't seem like Culley is getting it done (and I haven't seen him near JA during the games lately) and we need to get JA up to speed asap.

I think Belichick has already proven he can win without Brady. What are they, something like 13-6 without Brady? Hardly the fall that Indy experienced once Peyton went down.

Maybe as a qb coach or some type of offensive quality control assistant

Not hard to coach, pretty much just communicate, it's about alignment and yes he was. There are times in the past when I have wondered why a player is having trouble performing and it comes out after the season that there was a health issue that had more of an impact than was let on. Not saying that's the case here, but it crossed my mind.

Working on kicking technique is not really part of the job anyway. Moorman might be able scheme kick protections, blocks and coverage if he paid attention during his playing days. But maybe as an assistant. You can put me on the side of the players are the issue. Young roster, not a lot of quality talent at backup spots.

Ha ha, between him and Edmunds we could call our defense the Himalaya's or something, it would be tough to throw it in the middle over those two mountains

Can't wait until Gruden blows the 2019 draft and has only rbs over 30 on his roster

I'll tell you the words that were never said; "ok guys, let's take a look at what kelvin did on this play, I want you to repeat what he did". I'm assuming KB's tape was last and more often than not time was up before they got too far.

I would not want that kind of malcontent around my young team; if they did not want to play him they had to cut him. I can only imagine what the wr coaches had to say about his tape when they looked at it as a group.

He's lost a staircase

1) Max protect for him and let him throw, less complicated and hopefully can learn to stay in he pocket. I don't want Josh to develop bad habits due to crappy protection. 2) If so, get someone to replace them, Clay is likely because his lack of practice reps due to injury are affecting him 3) By dumping Holmes I assume they are trying to give Foster a chance at gunner to see if he can take hold of a roster spot for next year. 4) I don't know if you want to start him 16 games, but he can do the job for periods 5) Difficult to assess this and keep Allen healthy. Really only Teller has looked like he has a chance from our group of backups. I don't think Sirles earned more time on the field based on last week and the rest are behind him. Keep them on the bench and see if the TE's can block with max protect as I mentioned above. Hopefully we can hit on some lower round picks in the draft for better developmental players.

Don't know if anyone answered this since I'm still reading the thread, but I think with them being out of the playoffs would tip it. Just like there is some suprise here, there is probably some in the locker room too. Plus with the younger guys getting playing time and earning more there is less of a leap of faith to absorb KB's reps.
