Also, what really got Hurts attention is that when he missed a game and Minshew started their offense looked great.
To be fair I barely saw any last night but statistically Hurts was brilliant last night. Something like 22-25 , 2 rushing TD's etc. WFT was short a bunch of starters but if he could play remotely like that throwing the ball they will be thrilled. he's a very good runner, very powerful, and their run game is very similar to the ravens now, but when teams make them throw he has not been able to do it consistently. But apparently last night he did
My understanding (I don't watch any Philly games) is that Hurts can be successful in an extremely college offense (like mostly RPOs). You can't run a complete offense with him. In this way, he's kind of a poor-man's Tua.
I’m sorry my post wasn’t intellectual enough to meet the high standards you’ve established. I prefer coaches who show some emotions. To me Kingsbury looks too cool & detached. What are the dynamics to which you refer? I hardly ever see them even converse during the game. I seldom see that level of isolation with other coaches. As to whether or not Murray would respond, since the beginning of the Green Bay game Murray has not played well. So I think we can surmise that what they are doing now isn’t generating a positive response. Sometimes it seems to help just to shake things up. Something tells me you’ve have no idea whether or not he’d respond. We’re both guessing. I’m just suggesting changing tactics.
I like all kinds of emotions, but just because you don't like the way Kingsbury works the sideline doesn't mean he's bad or needs to change or has any impact whatsoever on the wins and losses. He didn't seem too cool and detached when he was getting T'd up against the 49ers.
The dynamics I'm referring to are this: if Kyler went to Keim and said "I can't play with Coach K and I won't sign an extension if he's still here," what do you think happens? If Kliff goes to Keim and says, "I don't think Kyler is a winner after all," who do you think goes?
It's a poor coach that decides that screaming at a player is going to make a difference, especially professional athletes. Maybe Coach should try kicking Kyler Murray like Urban Meyer did. Just changing tactics.
