Thank Goodness. That would have been worse than the Morris Hire!!! Hopefully he saw all the negative response from the fans...
They need to right the wrong and beg Gruden to come back... AND spend some of that money that they are required by the start of next year. I thought we were past the cheap owners?? We are so young and have SOME talent. Not as much as everyone says, but I agree we have a few pieces. But we need a lot of help.
Concerns -
QB - Consider me an outsider, but I'm not totally convinced Josh didn't have a fluke year 2 years ago. Seems to only play good when in the spread late in games and in hurry up. Maybe coaching, maybe is just that he over complicates game plan and then he just stops thinking and just plays when given the chance.
RB - I like Blount, but he needs to stay healthy. BUT, hard to tell how good he can be, because Morris would abandon the run early and he would never get the carries to get going. Could be a force of used properly.
WR - Man do we have the class of B receivers!!! We need an A receiver and some speed. We haven't had any speed since Gallaway left. Briscoe and Parker top WR's the last few weeks? What happened to Williams?
OL - I know this is considered a strength by many, but I don't see it. A good OL would open some holes and that just never happened. Josh spent a lot of time on his back as well. This is where i would love to see us spend some money and bring in some vets.
LB - Used to be our strength - NOT ANYMORE!!! It's like we got to big for our system - "We can just plug anyone there and be effective" NO. We need to keep our players here and get a lot more physical players to work.
CB - Love you Barber, but it's time to let it go. When you were relegated to covering the other teams TE and you couldn't even run with them - it's time... Talib is good and they better keep him and get him some counseling.
DL - Best part of our team. Young, explosive and not for all the big names. It's the no name guys that are good here... Now if we could cover the pass for more than 5 seconds - we would be good.
Going back on Not hiring Kelly - Come on Glazer and Dominik - do you really think you have the current pieces to run his offense anyways? Don't give me the recent Harbough success story - he preaches Defense and had a lot of good tools to work with. We need someone that will re-build this ship.
