7th in yards, 15th in points with all those pick 6s.
That's the bar, with all those injuries. There's no excuse for that defense to not be better than it even was last year. If it's not, there will be lots of questions regarding letting the Belichick kids walk.
We also had a very down year on takeaways, usually a top team in that department. Some of that was probably due to luck, but definitely our better playmakers being injured/exiled is part as well.
Which former offensive coaches from the Shanahan and McVeigh trees are setting the league on fire as head coaches?
I was thinking about this earlier today walking my dog. Outside of McVay (1-1) and Shanahan (0-2) in SB's, there hasn't been any real accomplishments. That said, a bunch of that tree are showing promise, Lafleur, Stefanski, McDaniel, Taylor, O'Connell are the more notable ones. Good teams, good offense and good talent. There are a couple more of them going into next year, with Morris, Canales, and potentially could be another with Seattle and Washington still looking. So again, no accomplishments yet, but most are running good offenses. We're gonna find out it seems like 1/3 of the league are from this group now.
So far, it's just like the "athletic" QB argument, and just like the 3 point shot argument in basketball, All of them are narratives created by recency bias, and without anything real to back them up. And even the Patriots media and fans are buying in, when they should know better.
The number of teams not named the Golden State Warriors who've won with the 3 point barrage since those same Warriors "revolutionized" the game is exactly zero. The number of "Athletic QBs who've won SBs since the arrival of Mahomes is exactly one, and it's Mahomes. In the meantime, the number of the supposedly more non-athletic QBs who've won SBs in that time is 3 (Foles, Stafford, Brady).
Lafleur didn't do anything with Rodgers, McDaniel can't do anything with a tremendous offense, Stefanski's had 2 losing seasons out of 4 and hasn't been able to get his highly touted QB on track, and O'Connell had a good first year but dropped to a 7 win team this year. Taylor got a very offensively talented team to the Super Bowl, but he's also had seasons with 2 and 4 wins, and owes his job to Joe Burrow.
Honestly, I get the fascination with the new thing. It's the refusal to accept when it's failed to live up to the hopes, combined with the insistence that it's got to be the way teams go, that gets me.
Browns hire new offensive coordinator: Ken Dorsey headed to Cleveland after Bills firing, per report
Congratulations to Dorsey. I don't know if he can do the job, but he got scapegoated in Buffalo for Allen's shitty early season play, and he deserves another shot.
