You are right. Tesla’s started seeing playing time once St Brown and Raymond got hurt. I was exaggerating when mentioning Kennedy.
What is also true is Fannin played 72% of the snaps week 1 and played between 63-96% all season. Even with Njoku on the roster he was getting playing time. There is no reason to believe that Fannin would have played over Brock Wright to start the season.
Stephen Ross on Mike McDaniel firing: Our organization is in need of comprehensive change
“After careful evaluation and extensive discussions since the season ended, I have made the decision that our organization is in need of comprehensive change.”
He’s so close to seeing the problem.
I think the Giants are risky. Running QB one hit away from being Tua. RB that destroyed his ankle. WR coming off ACL, not a guarantee. Defense that can only do one thing and has a lot of resources in the front 7.
Hearing that Campbell would retain play calling is super disappointing and helps explain why he’d lean that way over a real offensive coordinator. No way a real OC comes in and doesn’t call plays. It’ll be another year of overwhelmed coaching making suspect clock management and personnel decisions. This team works best when Campbell is leading the entire team and making executive level decisions.
Raiders beat Chiefs 14-12 in the ugliest game of the season
“The game had no touchdowns, eight field goals, four turnovers, a safety, nine sacks, 12 punts and a combined 372 yards. They were 0-for-4 in the red zone.”
How much is it scheme and how much is pure talent? Odd that Johnson just happens to have great lines. Odd that he happens to find 2 good backs. Sounds like he’s either really lucky or really good at finding gold with IOL and RB.
Or … he’s creative and has a knack for play design and sequencing. He's not infallible, look no further than the playoffs last year.
The guy responsible for the historically good offense has propped up an average line and average running backs in Chicago.
Trying to have halfwits in Detroit run someone else’s offense is turning out exactly as you’d expect. No one with any real talent is going to want to come in and try to run someone else’s offense. The best will have their own offense.
He’s ended the last 2 seasons having surgery, knee this year and ankle last year. Surgery in 2020 for a torn labrum too. Will be 29 heading into next season.
