I should not know about the rushers that I can identify at the LoS because in several seconds I will be executing a playaction pass.

Six of one, and half a dozen of the other.

if there were six rushers identified who all beat the TE then football has become a very strange game.

It's a cluster. Our line sucks, we have a young QB, and we have a young RB. All three combine to ensure we have free rushers, barely blocked rushers, and people in our backfield on nearly every snap. If one of those three weren't the case we might be able to make something happen (If Peyton were here he would damn sure at least make the right call, if the line was better TS would have a bit more time, and if we had a more experienced RB (we might) he could help with at least picking up a free blitzer.)

It's a perfect storm of youth and lack of skillsets. Our coaching along the OL is also absolutely horrendous, and our playcalling isn't a lot better.

That's a lot of "if's".

Including, if we could listen to the helmet calls we would have heard:

"Siemian, you piece of shit, pay attention and get the protection right."
or
"Siemian, tell Booker if he misses another block we are trading him to Cleveland."

If only we could listen in, we would know the mysteries of Sunday...

This offense is going to give Kubiak another complex migraine stroke thingy. Or it'll give me one. One of the two.

I had a massive migraine post game (Part of which was why I was an utter ******* post game, the other part was I was pissed and grumpy)

This offense is giving me "Do laundry by halftime" syndrome. I got a lot of laundry done yesterday. I don't know whether to dance or cry.

We vote dance (and don't forget the webcam...)

Its hard for me to blame play calling when i dont k ow if its a bad play or execution. To me right now its execution because you can watch the OL miss blocks entirely or get man handled and pancaked.

No. It's Trevor Siemian's fault.

It amazes me how people believe any criticism of TS means he's blamed for anything. It amazes me.

This is probably an area which is a glaring weakness we don't discuss much. It's an area CJ would have been really helpful in. Without the experience of CJ diagnosing blitzes we are left with the collective experience of Trevor and Paradis.

I would think Paradis too but Nalen has mentioned that he may not be making calls for the entire protection. Which might actually be part of the problem. Maybe that'd be the case if Paradis were able to practice full time, he is most likely the most qualified.
