If Wilson was average, Pete would have been long gone by now. Average QBs don't allow coaches to have long careers unless the owner is absent or doesn't care.
I'm surprised you people haven't mentioned Center depth. You have Pocic dealing with injuries and then two backups that are basically scrubs. Considering the teams they face this season have above average talent on interior D-line, Wilson could have another hellish year. Would have been nice if...
If Paul Allen was still here, this situation would have never gotten this bad. Paul was kinda involved and kept Pete in check probably act as a mediator between QB and Coach ala Kraft with Belichek and Brady.
Eh, I mean Pete runs the franchise basically after that extension. He has an owner that wants to be off hands a possible. Never give a coach that much power really.
No he probably wants a QB that can enhance the run game ala Lamar Jackson, Kyler Murray, etc. A game breaker, why else did the scout for guys like Mahomes or Allen? If Carr is his type of QB, than my opinion of Pete goes down the tubes of course it would make sense given how he signed crap like...
Makes no sense considering any QB would look just like Russ or worse with the way the offense works. Having to face the Donald 3 times this season and watching the pocket collapse randomly while trying to take deep shots. You can throw short passes but being so predictable still leads to pick...
Same thing happened with DK vs. Petersen. I guess RW lost faith after throwing some BS int to Petersen in that game but more importantly its how often he gets hit and had to deal with a new center plus Rams are in his head just like McVay owns Pete since entering the division :P
Seem like this franchise is going to be like the Packers where a Great QB has to carry the whole team to wins despite having lackluster coaches acting as dead weight. The GM is fine for now.
I don't understand at all. Baltimore just got another quality player. I wish they would have just traded the first round pick its obvious they can't draft well with late first round picks.
Wonder if JS/PC self-review on this, probably thought they already had that in Ifedi and whatever no name pass rusher they had on roster...right :34853_doh:
Nah, Pete would be like 7-9 or worse without a QB like Wilson. Thank god for that cause you could see the type of QB he likes ala Palmer, Leinhart, Booty, Sanchez, Whitehurst, TJ, Flynn, etc.
