I'm not sure a family friend is the right relationship for the O-Coordinator. Johnson is sh***** the bed right now and has too many run Hurts plays called. There really shouldn't be any on a wet day. He can scramble to escape trouble but no called runs. That's what RB's are for. This is not a day for the RPO game. Classic pocket passing is killing us right now and Hurts needs to be directed to do the same. Keep it simple.

So, after Patriots first possession of 2nd half are we down 1 or 6?

The way the last 2 drives went it’ll be 5.

You can expect more of the same the rest of the season from this team.

This is one reason why it sucks to not play your starters in the preseason. I get it but when you don’t there’s obvious rust.

It's more going to conservative with a lead.  

Right now this team looks clearly inferior to the 49ers.

Hurts makes me nervous. Always has. If the defense isn't off balance and there's no obvious "thing" to exploit then we bog down. He's just not "that guy" to make something out of nothing. 

Well there it is, the dumbest Fing thing I'll read Today.

Winning at halftime or blowing large leads?

Yeah, these seems weird to me as well. They keep trying to force Gainwell and it's just not happening. 

Penny not being available today definitely hurts, but you got to shake it up and get the ball to Swift or Scott. 

For whatever reason they love Scott. He has his moments but I’d rather see what Penny can do over Scott.

No they are as dominant as everyone thought, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to adjust and get the ball out quick on a 3 step drop. When you have wide open cross routes and deep center that leaves wideouts open. That's all there doing.

A gap blitz and man press stops that nonsense

Im really tired of the colts poaching all of our coordinators. We have to suffer because their franchise is such a train wreck they cant keep a coach.

That too.

I'm not saying it's entirely his fault, because it isn't, but not the way you want to play off of signing a big contract.

I'm not worried about Hurts

It looks like the opposition has an answer for his running today and all the coverages are well-designed. I bet a lot of Eagles fans would wish he'd force balls into that coverage instead of throwing it away

There have been some openings that he's missed.

Wonder if they’ll hit Jones this half.

I still think he bails out of the pocket too quickly sometimes. I dont worry about his decision making otherwise. 

TB12 just said I'm chearing for a couple of my favorite teams. Lol

They should, but I don’t believe it’ll happen. Jones has a great pocket to work in. We don’t have and push up front. 

Couple of his favorite teams? 😂😂

Now we got to hear Mr. Deflate run his trap. We beat you dude. With a backup QB. You cant ever change that.

No preseason ... very few "important" practice reps ... this really shouldn't come as any surprise. Fully expected rough times Week 1, especially on Offense. Let's see if we can adjust with a little rust out of the way.
