    Imagine Brady or Manning with our line and WR for that matter. We would be in the Playoffs. I know he's a rookie, but that excuse will go out the window week 1 next year.

    Haslem, please sign Lovie Smith. Everyone on the Bears loved that dude and gave it their all (except for Culter, who is the biggest bitch in the NFL). Hester is thinking about retiring.

    Smith would be a good choice but he got canned for never being able to produce a legitimate offense and I think we need a guy more offensive minded.

    As for Chip Kelly, I'd be surprised if this zone-read whatever the fuck it is thing he does lasts in the NFL for very long and the QBs that run it will last even less.

    And why would we even need Chip Kelly if that's the direction they want to go. Any innovative coach can implement parts of the college games offense into their scheme, it's not like it's a system reserved strictly for college coaches to use.

    zone blocking is used on teams where Shanahan is or was....

    He used it in Denver, ( Kubiak probably brought to Houston)

    and now in Washington DC. All his RB's had alot of success with it.

    Not sure if Kellys creative offense is any different or just a typical hybrid?

  • I think maybe you are confusing zone read and zone blocking.

    Afaik zone read is a spread,option type offense and zone blocking is offensive lineman blocking a designated zone rather than man 2 man.

    I'm all for zone blocking, I'm a big fan and yep it turns water into wine as far as running backs are concerned.

    Rick Dennison, OC of the Texans is a guy I would think should be a HC candidate but I guess maybe he just isn't HC material.

    He worked his way up in Denver under Shannahan,Kubiak and Alex Gibbs.

  • thx for clearing that up for me..

  • Is there really anybody out there criticising the use of our first pick for a sure HOF in that draft? 😵

    All the way from Torino to Cleveland: GO BROWNS!!!!!!!

  • Yeah we can't run for shit because of our left tackle...hmm..when we had Steinbach and Vickers we somehow made the piece of shit that was Peyton Hillis look like a pro-bowler..but let's blame our LT when we have shit at the guard positions and FB

  • @king-ghoolie-lives said:

    Joe Thomas... HOF?

    LMAO. Funniest fucking thing on this board, yet.

  • Steve Hutchinson was a firstteam AllPro G until Kalil was drafted. Minnesota in 2009 had 10 pro bowlers and 4 all-pros, both league highs.

    Good teams are always built inside-out, especially today where OL/DL/QB are always the key for winning teams.

    If skill players win, the Cowboys would be going for their third straight SB title this year.

    Joe Thomas blows..

    Wow you're dumb and an asshole. You win!

  • @king-ghoolie-lives said:

    LMAO oh yeah, man, the Vikings OL is LOADED with great, HOF type picks. LMAO.

    The RB, WRs and QB make the line.

    Actually, YES, the Viking OL is Loaded....in fact, their RT is a guy named Loadholt...and he is a load....and outstanding player.

    And note....the Vikings used their #3 overall pick on a LT name Ryan Kalil....and he has made a big difference with AP running the ball.

    Thanks for pointing that out to Ghoolie regarding the Vikings. Kalil was drafted high first round, their OL is loaded with top performers. You're never going to get it through Ghoolie thick head LT is generally considered the 3rd most important position on the team- because he protects a right handed qb from getting blindsided. Stud LTs get drafted high EVERY freaking year. Like I told Ritchie-poo in another thread- you think Rotlisbooger will last much longer playing behind a crap offensive line? BTW, there goes his argument. Rothlisbooger, Mendenhall, Wallace. All top "skill" players. All sitting at home watching the playoffs. And what's the primary reason for that? The Steeler offensive line sucked. It's the same reason- due to about a bazillion OL injuries, the Eagles stunk it up- even with "skill" Pro Bowlers like Macklin and Lesean McCoy who couldn't do squat. Cost Reid his job, too.
