    We looked REALLY good in that game with Baker, and the backup running’s backs were great that game. Maybe it was the Lions subpar 2nd and 3rd team.

    Hilliard made a nice looking play yesterday against Pittsburgh, I expect him to slide into the #2 role, with Duke as a 3rd down back.

    Kitchens is an interesting choice. Would seem to foretell an increased emphasis on the run game... perfect for a Defense-minded HC.

    Get ready for plenty of pounding and Play-action.

    Kitchens' choice also keeps Zampese's focus on developing our QB.

    Does this mean we finally run the ball? Patrick Mahomes has Kareem Hunt, Goff has Gurley etc etc

    lord knows we need something?

    We are 4th in the league in rushing attempts this year. We are 9th in yard per game and 12th in yards per attempt. There has been a lot of crap for sure but frequency of the run isn't one of them. Decision making on when we run vs. when we pass? yes I will say that has sucked.

    Hopefully Anus was Hue or Haleys guy

  • Here is a copy of the video on youtube. Neat story. Only time will tell, but a young (43 yr old) Coach on the rise. Good to see him getting a shot at OC. I like it & am anxious to see how he & Williams work together.

    If you watched the Dorsey and Haslam presser- easy to see why they picked Kitchens to be OC. They stressed cooperation many times, and it seems like Freddie is a "I'll work with you" sort of guy. Plus NFLN (and others) said Carson Palmer thought he was great for his big year in Arizona. 

    Seems like now Baker will have two guys that will be instrumental in his development as a QB...  🙂

    Certainly makes this weeks game a little bit more watchable since I wasn't really looking forward to watching KC run up and down the field on us.

    Maybe now on 1st and Goal from the 3, they may actually hand the thing off 3 times in a row..... from gulp - under center no less.

    If they do that then I will be happy no matter whether we win or lose. I was very tired of "cutesy" football deep in the redzone the past 2 1/2 years whether it was Hueless or Haley Mills.

  • Well, this next game is going to be a win, because Kitchens is going to throw the kitchen sink at em.🙄

  • I’m somewhat excited to see what Kitchens can do.  I would say more concerned than excited, but whatever, LOL. 

    I think one of the GOOD things that can come out of Kitchens making the calls is the involvement of Duke Johnson.  Kitchens was our RB’s coach, and he’s going to be quite familiar with Duke’s ability.  Let’s see if we finally split him out wide more, or find ways to get him involved in all four quarters.  I mean, our first drive against the Steelers was nice!  It basically started off with two Duke receptions, each for 8 yards, and then the rest of the entire game he didn’t have a catch.  How is that possible?   Speaking of our first drive, it ended on a 3rd and 4 Duke Johnson run.  It didn’t work, but I actually like the call.  It’s really frustrating when you call a run on 3rd down and it doesn’t work, but I liked the play call.  Just didn’t work.

  • He seems to have the right attitude and a grip on his marching orders. Protect the QB and give him what he needs. I’m not to keen on interim coaches but this seems to be an interesting set up. 

    I mean, what’s the worst he can do?   Lose?

  • so he is a Haley guy how much change to the play calling if any do you see

    You can't massively change your system in the middle of the season. Kitchens will still be running Haley's offense, but I wouldn't doubt the plays will be used differently, at different times. With of course an emphasis on avoiding getting Baker killed.  🙂
