Well, we tried the gimmicky college guru thing and found out again that the college game just doesn't work at the pro level. I think Chip's system "might" have worked, but it had to have the right QB ... none of Foles, Bradford or Sanchez had the right combination of skills and mobility needed to consistently move the chains. I think on the Defensive side, what we could be seeing these last couple of games is the defense losing their legs from a season-long losing battle with time of possession.
Spot on as usual Rey. The defense has lost is legs. First thing that happens when you lose your legs is your tackling becomes suspect. Guys start missing their spots and take bad angles to the ball
I believe there is talent on this team. Talent that used correctly could be the foundation for another playoff run with the right coach. Not the Great Pretender we have now. A coach that plays to his players strengths not his system that doesn't work. We have to find a QB and not only that develop that QB. The one thing that we can really say is under the Great Pretender not many players developed or even came close to their ability. We have drafted some good talent but most of them have not come close to their ability. We can rip Marcus Smith and where we took him all we want but he still was suppose to be a late 2nd early 3rd round pick, those players still contribute in the NFL. The guy is completely lost. I blame that on coaching.
