HappyDays Posted January 27 Posted January 27 We entered the past two offseasons desperately needing more pass catchers. Well here we are again. Coleman was a non-factor. Samuel dropped a catch, tougher than it needed to be but still a play there to be made. The final play of the game a pass catcher let us down. The more I think about it the more disgusted I am. Hopefully Beane has finally learned that he needs to OVER invest in pass catchers. The only way we're winning a Super Bowl under this regime is with an offense that can completely steamroll the competition. We need someone other than Allen that can make the clutch play at the end. No more half measures. Go all in on giving Allen an offensive cast worthy of his talent. 5 22 1 Quote

No more half measures. Go all in on giving Allen an offensive cast worthy of his talent. Expand They are not, save for the Josh pick, good evaluators of offensive talent. And I think there's enough evidence to support that after 8 off-seasons. The team speed thing was glaring...again. It's going to take a major shift in philosophy to get to the SB with McD. Sadly, I don't think he'll ever revert from what he is. It's in his DNA. Beane needs to look McD in the eye and say your strategy doesn't work. 2 5 1 1 Quote
MPL Posted January 27 Posted January 27 I would rank sports psychologist as the top need, and then pass catcher. Also big mean defensive player that plays a little dirty (or mostly dirty). 1 3 3 Quote

Fire up your Madden franchise if you want to build that kind of team around Josh. We are gonna go DL in the first round, again. Maybe spend a 4th on a WR. 2 1 Quote

Chicken Boo Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Not that Beane had a shot of landing either, but Nabers or Thomas would have made a difference today. 1 1 Quote
HappyDays Posted January 27 Author Posted January 27 Mack Hollins was our best pass catcher today. That can't happen. 3 13 Quote

turbo044 Posted January 27 Posted January 27 I was begging for us to take Ladd McConkey in the draft. He was pretty damn good this year for the Chargers. Coleman seems like a good kid and may turn out okay next year but Ladd would have been a game changer for us this year. We need a speed guy and will have cap space, so maybe there will be someone in UFA? Hollins obviously is a must resign guy. 3 1 Quote

Expand I unfortunately am expecting more of the same. But to me it's obvious that even Myles Garrett wasn't changing the outcome today. We needed a real downfield passing game to take the pressure off and we just couldn't get it going with any kind of consistency. Quote
Niagara Dude Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Speed kills and Worthy made plays to help the Chiefs win. Not surprised is Coleman is out of league in 2-4 years. Beane still does not understand speed and Kincaid has been a disappointment. 3 2 1 Quote

Lionel Hutz Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Amazing how much we’ve invested in receivers recently to end up with Mack Hollins being our most dependable receiver. Quote
Mr. Wonderful Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Yes, find a legit #1 WR and improve D this off-season. Hope we can get back. Quote
