Like he did in 2021? Don't forget, we were decimated that year, too, and had Payton in charge. We finished in the bottom half of the league in scoring. As great as Payton was he too was hogtied by the injuries that year. It was arguably the worst offense in his tenure. Would we have been better with him calling plays last year instead of Carmichael? Probably. But by how much?
