VaTitan Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) Vrabel is a good enough coach. What he lacks in playcalling, he more than makes up with a great ability to coach up players and maximize the talent on the roster. Another year with Art should be better in the playcalling Dept. The chiefs just figured us out and we should really be scared on life without Henry. Tanny and the offense becomes super avg without him. We got some great pieces but need to resign Henry, along with more consistent play from Jonnu and an upgrade at #2 WR and pass rush Edited January 20, 2020 by VaTitan Justafan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd strongly consider letting Conklin walk and draft a guy. RT is usually easy to fill in the draft. I’m starting to think they will allow Conklin to depart - but it’s a risky strategy. He’s a good RT but he’s not elite. Justafan, and oldschool 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And who's primary job is that? #1 priority this offseason has to be to upgrade the pass rush like the Packers did this year.

He has no shot against the Chiefs. That’s just the truth. Tannehill is an average at best in that the coaching staff propped up. He deserves a freaking medal. And takes like this is why you continue to show your ass when it comes to football talk. Very flawed team? Comical. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art was trying way too hard to press with Henry INSTEAD of passing with Tannehill. As others have pointed out, the pass was open.

It’s a contain rush though, they got too far upfield rushing trying to sack Mahommes instead of contain him. I agree it is a big priority - but we need a bigger OLB who can set the edge and contain also, not just a sack demon. Clowney would be perfect but that’s unlikely. I’m kind of afraid they will keep Wake honestly. oldschool 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are going to keep saying this until they’re blue in the face for years on end. Landry rushes the passer and Wake was brought in to rush. This idea that Pees doesn’t like guys who rush the passer is wrong. He doesn’t necessarily want the DEs rushing but we need someone else at OLB to compliment Landry.

OILERMAN Posted January 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 Sure they could use better pass rushers but that's not why they lost today and CBs wouldn't have helped today either. tgo, and Justafan 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a good RT but he’s not elite. He was costly today for sure. And that plays part in this loss. The O line had been great vs The Patriots and Ravens. They were not impressive today, and it showed on the scoreboard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
