I think 53 meant that with Smith they are more of a dink dunk offense and more of wide open offense with Kaep.

I took it to be that a coach, who has been discussed as a possible replacement for MS, was being praised for adapting his offensive system to the particular talents of the QB at hand. An ability similarly exhibited by our current coaching staff and for which many a poster has failed to give them credit.

At this point, other than a couple of folks, I don't know or care who likes/tolerates/hates MS. Just seems inconsistent to praise one coach for adapting and not do the same for others.

Just curious why. Are they hurting in the WR dept?

They are. Think both Cotchery and Brown may miss Sunday's game

They're also adding Brian Hoyer

Does that make you upset knowing the skins can't sign him now?

Yup. And I agree that Kyle deserves praise for his adaptivity this year. Our unique "pistol" often works out like an adapted old single wing, with true "quarter-"backs, "half-"backs, and "full-"backs. This allows the team to play to Griff's strengths, develop him slowly, but still be successful offensively. Kyle has done things that no one else is doing and deserves credit for this.

Now if we can just work on Kyle's short-yardage play calling...

Agreed. (I would add stopping silly penalties to that).

i literrally lol at work.


In regards to JC and the Bears...relatively same o-line that protected Cutler and had him in the MVP discussion before he went down last year and that led them to one of the best records in the league this year.

I think Chicago defense much more to blame than JC, but Cutler certainly would have made a difference. I got a feeling we will see JC again this weekend, lets see if we see any improvement...but seriously f*cking doubt it.

is there anyway we can pull a Vinny/Danny...talk New England into not releasing him and we will just give them a 4th/3rd rounder instead.

So what's everyones take on the Ed Reed situation? The league is taking a real PR hit on this and it's like they don't even care.

He needs to stop launching himself head first into another player's head.
