How these DL guys still have functioning knees with all this cut blocking is beyond me. Still getting gashed...
I couldn't agree with any statement any more than this. It was obvious last year, and even more obvious this year.
Third and long has been terrifying for the last five years or so, it seems. Teams routinely covert it on us.
Not gonna panic at this point in the season, but we look bad and unprepared. My big hope at this point is we are running very basic and vanilla sets on offense and defense so as to keep something new for divisional games. My worry is that we are just plain looking sloppy, regardless of any intent. If we cannot pick things up, Coyle at least needs to be on a very hot seat. He brings nothing to the table.
