I want to see them clean house next year. New head coach and coordinator if this continues

We should have hired Doug Pederson tbh.

If you're Doug, with our QB situation, do take the plunge? Maybe it doesn't matter, since he won with an average QB in Philly. We'll see what he accomplished with Trevor.

With Drew, it could possibly be defenses playing closer to the line with his noodle arm. With Winston, his eyes are locked downfield. But yea, you would think with a back like Kamara, our screen game would be a lot more effective. Let me re-phrase that. You would think with a back like Kamara, we'd have an existent screen game.

Winston thinks he's better than he is.
Hes trying way too hard to force the ball down the field, rather than taking what the defense gives him.

Constant deep throws, dangerous intermediate passes, zeroing in on one receiver for every throw and ignoring one of the most electrifying players in the NFL

I agree, it seems like we have over-corrected in trying to drive the ball down the field. More screens and off-tackle runs, pitches and sweeps for Kamara! Get guys like Kamara, Harty and Taysom in the flat. #FreeAlvin

I can't remember the last time I saw a shovel pass or a jet sweep. Flea Flicker anyone?

That's Ingram yelling in the background.

With respect leilung, I Totally agree with the idea of what you and neugey are saying. There are 2 problems though…

1 Kamara is not very healthy and missed a game.
2 Our RBs have had BIG fumbles so far in games.

That’s tough to adjust to and play with.

I'd really like to see this D-line make a difference in this game.
