    Let's say you could make one player personnel change (depth chart, or cut/trade/sign), and one playcalling/gamplan change... what would they be?

    Mine are:
    PLAYER CHANGE: Demote Julius Thomas, split his snaps between Fasano and Gray.
    PLAY-CALLING CHANGE: Call more downfield play-action shots deep, off of running Ajayi more.

    What are your 1 Player Change, and 1 Playcalling Change?

    Wait, you can make ANY cut/sign/trade/depth chart shuffle and you waste it on Julius Thomas? You don't want to trade for Aaron Rodgers or anything? It's like wasting your genie wish on a big mac and fries...

    Player change- Nobody. I wouldn't change a single player at this point.

    Play change- Everything. I would let someone else call the plays since it feels like Gase is too personally invested to realize that he's screwing up.

    I would incorporate speed guys like Drake and Grant more.

    I would remove the bubble screen immediately and take more 50/50 shots.

    Slightly left of center
    Change bubble screen to slant. Run it same number of times.

    Trade for the best RG available. Anyone but a LB for trade bait. Anybody.

    Mine was going to be to trade for Aaron Rodgers actually. Best player on Earth by far automatically makes any mess a playoff contender and possibly more depending on what you surround him with.

    I agree with not changing players at this point. I really do think that the right guys are starting.
    As far as play calling goes. I would try and push the ball down field. Kenny Stills is getting at least one deep shot every single game, period. Parker is going to get 50-50 passes. I am taking every WR screen that is in the playbook at burning with kerosene and scatter the ashes on the streets of London - never to return to America.

    I would get some more speed on the field. If the O line can't hold up long enough, it might be worth trying some quick throws to Grant and Drake and let them make some plays. Same with Ajayi....Get him more involved in the passing game the way the Rams have with Gurley. It can't hurt to try these things. Right now we're just way too predictable.

    I agree except the trade should be for the best LG available. We dont have a true quality left guard on this team. Even larsen who is injured till mid season is better suited to playing RG.

    Although in reality we need both a LG and a RG, but LG is more of a problem imo.
