The SB thing, the INT was just an amazing play that you can't blame Bevell for. Yeah, they could have ran but why if the RB fumbled, would you blame Bevell? The offense not being good the last couple of years, yeah Bevell should be canned for not bringing in NFL caliber OL to protect Wilson. I swear some of you can't seem to see that SEA's GM has failed them just like Keim failed ARZ this offseason determined to collect draft picks instead of improving the team so he can continue to gamble with ARZ's future with his risky drafting strategies. Gus Bradley sucked as a HC, some coaches are better coordinators, you can't argue with the defenses he ran in SEA, not going to try arguing with posters about that. If Bevell had an OL, Wilson would be torching defenses. Can't blames sins of the GM on coordinators, they are just trying to make something out of nothing in SEA and ARZ's cases.
Seattle was 16th in offensive DVOA last year, and 1st in offensive DVOA in 2015. That offense is fine; it's just that early struggles make you forget that it's pretty deadly at the end of the year. They're efficient.
Personally, I think the fire Arians talk is ridiculous. The players love playing for him and are playing hard. He hasn't forgotten how to coach and is still a very good play caller.
His problem is his head has been in the sand for years when it comes to special teams. I posted last year that I don't think he emphasizes it and it shows. ST's cost them a playoff berth last year and it seems to have gotten worse this year.
This remains so dumb. If you actually feel this is true, more power to you, but we had a losing record last year, and all three phases of the game contributed to that. Not to mention that Amos Jones wasn't the one who decided to bring two rookie long snappers to training camp.
How do you guys feel about Matt Patricia as a possible replacement for BA? He could run the defense and bring in his own offensive coordinator. He is also familiar with Chandler Jones.
Don't the Pats have the worst defense in the NFL, by a mile? This is probably the wrong time to bring up this name. Who are the successful Belichek disciples in the the NFL as head coaches?
I wonder what the record is for the top 4 teams in the NFL last year are. If we are comparable with other teams in the league or not.
IIRC, this is first and second round picks from the past three draft classes? (Based on OurLads.com depth charts)
New England Patriots - (No first or second rounder in 2017, no first in 2016) Malcom Brown (1st, DT) - That's
1 of 3 first- or second-round picks.
Pittsburgh Steelers - T.J. Watt (2017, 1st, OLB), Artie Burns (2016, 1st, DB), Sean Davis (2016, 2nd, DB), Bud Dupree (2015, 1st, OLB). That's 4 of 6 first- or second-round picks.
Atlanta Falcons - (no 2017 second rounder) Keanu Neal (1st, 2016, DB), Deion Jones (2nd, 2016, ILB), Vic Beasley (1st, 2015, OLB) - That's
3 of 5 first- or second-round picks.
Green Bay Packers - Kenny Clark (2016, 1st, DT), Demarious Randall (1st, 2015, DB) - That's 2 of 6 first- or second-round picks.
