Geno's decision making also needs to be addressed. I'm quite sure it has been.
Definitely a mutual respect there in similar philosophies, well, PC's 2011-2013 philosophy anyway ha, PC has modernized his a touch and has a different type of roster now.Their corners were impressive on several plays for sure. That looked like a very well coached team to me. Big win against a damn good team.
Good enough for a come from behind win against one of the BEST Defenses in the League, eh?I think again he did not play a good game
And a bad backup QB, yes we won, we dodged a serious bulletGood enough for a come from behind win against one of the BEST Defenses in the League, eh?
Geno should go get a lottery ticket. That dropped pick 6 was an easy walk in and likely game.....
I couldn't agree more; I was yelling at the TV yesterday for them to do exactly that.I honestly don't see a lack of creativity with the playcalling when the offense is struggling. I see a lack of execution.
- Guys are open and Geno's missing them or not seeing them
- O-line is struggling to run and pass block
- Receivers are running sloppy routes
I do think Waldron could do a better job of in game adjustments, seems to take too long for him to change things up. But he's very creating with his formations and motion, should be more than enough to jumpstart some series.
I also would like to see them go up tempo when the offense is struggling. I used to complain about this with Russ. When you're struggling, go up tempo. Sometimes that helps get the offense and more important Geno back in rhythm.
BUT STILL m0ng0, as bad as he played, he still pulled off a COME FROM BEHIND WIN!!, so there is that Eh?And a bad backup QB, yes we won, we dodged a serious bullet
Okay, Honesty?? Geno pulled off a "Come-From-Behind-W-I-N", is THAT enough "honesty" for you and the other Geno Bashers??Yeah, Geno was the biggest single problem on the field today for Seattle. Let's just be honest here, everybody.
You mean the same QB/team combo that beat the 9ers?And a bad backup QB, yes we won, we dodged a serious bullet
-- You guys realize the other team has players and coaches as well, right? They see things, they adapt to things. I have actually been impressed with some of our early scripted play calling. It's been creative and often seems to catch the other team off guard, and that is credit to the game plan. However, the next punch is always the harder one. Now they see what you want to do, and make their adjustments off of it. Now your turn to adjust, and yesterday you are doing it against one of the best defenses in the league. It just sounds so dumb "I liked our first quarter play calling but after that it sucked." The OC didn't just "doze off" as suggested, the defense just started to figure some things out and make some plays. I guess you could say the Cleveland play caller sucked the second half as well, but I would rather give some credit to our defense. But that's just me.
-- Your in game adjustments are always going to be somewhat limited with Geno as the QB. I admit, he shocked me last year, but I posed the question then, is how he played last year his ceiling? Even though he was older, could he "build" off that success. Honestly, I think the answer is no. That was his ceiling, and he is playing right at that ceiling again this year. He has some limitations that he is never going to shake at this point. And we can win with that, but at times it will be ugly, with serious offensive power outages.
-- I will agree, I want to run the ball more, but teams seem committed to preventing that. They also understand Geno's limitations, so they are trying to coerce us into throwing the ball more, i.e. heavy boxes. K9 and Fine Wine are a wicked two punch combo, and good defenses are going to take that away.

I believe this is mostly what I said about the playcalling in the OP?My only 3 critiques for Waldron on the season so far would be to get JSN involved down the field more, not just WR screens. Don't forget about the TEs. And run the ball more loaded box be damned, which is obvious to everyone.
He sucked for most of the game and also his come-from-behind win very nearly had a pick six at the end where it was sheer luck that the defender dropped it. Being a member of reality is preferable to stubbornly ignoring it.Okay, Honesty?? Geno pulled off a "Come-From-Behind-W-I-N", is THAT enough "honesty" for you and the other Geno Bashers??
