I agree with all of that except the"worst roster" part.
Our defense is solid. Our DL is all first round picks and studs. Cole Holcomb is a stud. Cam balled out last year. Cutting Kerrigan was a huge mistake..we are seeing his leadership skills missing.
Our offense has great pieces. McLaurin, Thomas, Gibson, JD. We have good pieces.
Are we the Bucs or Chiefs? Nope! But, we shouldn't be as bad as Jacksonville or Carolina either. We should be dominating on D and winning with 14 points per game.
These losses are mainly due to poor coaching. Whether it's Scott's terrible play calls, Del Rios obsession with zone D, or Ron's inability to corral them both and get on the same page...our coaching staff is the main issue to me. That ultimately falls on Ron.
Good points, Mike.
One thing we need to be careful of moving forward is simply assuming that our talented guys are going to keep ascending though.
A huge job on the part of the staff is going to be to identify who has reached their max developmentally in the final 9 games, and who is simply having a down year.
If 2020 was the peak performance for some our guys that we perceive as being talented, I would argue that they might not be some of the ones we want to keep in the building for the long haul in this rebuild.
