2026 Off Season Activities / Camps

He characterized it as 'looking like a day 1 Kyle Shanahan or McVay offense' according to Dwinzit. To be blunt (again), drawing any conclusions or even making comparisons based on a bunch of rookies running around - it's dumb. Even if it's Logan Paulsen doing it.
That is what he said. Whatever he was seeing, led him to feel that way and he seemed psyched about it.

Ah, gotcha. Maybe this is a lost in translation kind of deal. I heard and read it as Logan making an observation, given he’s gone through a day 1 Kyle Shanahan install, not that he was saying they’re going to be running a Shanahan/McVay offense.

I’m not sure how it’s dumb to make a comparison though. Concrete conclusions, sure, but if he sees it like this:
Kliff’s day 1 install (including in rookie mini camp) looks like A.
Kyle’s day 1 install (including in rookie mini camp) looks like B.
Blough’s day 1 install (including in rookie mini camp) looks like B.

Again, maybe I’m reading you wrong, but sounds like you’re saying it’s wrong to say that last line?
 
Yes - but it's a rookies-only minicamp (I think with a handful of 2nd year players). I don't understand why anyone would imply conclusions can be drawn about anything related to the eventual offense or defense. It seems beyond silly.

It certainly wouldn’t carry a ton of weight, but they’d obviously start installing the new schemes with the rookies the first chance they got, right? So I’d assume it is indeed our first glimpse at anything tangibly real about our new OC + DC. So anything demonstrably different than the last two years, I’d at least note down for comparison

He’s talking about what a day one install for those offenses looks like vs a Kliff offense, which he’d know. So I think it’s fair game even if he’s overstating the actually formations and such he happened to see in limited viewing
 
I'm just saying - it's rookie minicamp. It really means very little. But hey, I guess we are starved (or Paulsen is) for content, lol...
 
Well, he has to produce content. He's got a weekly podcast. Got to fill it with something
 
Sometimes I think Paulsen just says things to see what he can say and people will run with.

He's never seen that Click-baity to me.

Yes, that was what Logan was mentioning. There are basic installs with the rookies so you do get those glimpses.
 
There are a lot of mediots that do, I agree he has not come across that way to me either.
He does to me. He says things that anyone that has been around football as much as Paulsen has would know.

For instance: Kliff’s offense held the defense back.

They run scout teams. How would that even be remotely relevant? For a portion of the offseason? Sure. But week to week? No. And he knows that.

They should have lined up exclusively in single wing and wildcat formations just to watch everyone lose their damn minds.

You know more football than I do, but Logan doesn’t seem at all like that to me. He doesn’t seem like a click bait guy to me.

But, he does seem to see a lot of players and concepts through rose colored glasses, especially with regards to the Commanders, and to obviously hold back from being critical about the team. To the degree that I wonder whether it’s job or team access related at times

I don’t think it has anything to do with his knowledge. He’s obviously football smart. I just think he’s a bit of a quiet troll that likes to mess with people subtly.

In his shoes, I’d probably get a kick out of starting 10 page conversations on message boards and Reddit threads at times.

Not saying he doesn’t believe what he says… moreso he embellishes at times.

He’s also a giant homer.

Huge homer.

He is knowledgeable and I enjoy his perspective, takes and breakdowns. I'd rather listen to him that most of the others out there reporting on the team

You are correct, he's definitely a homer so I do get what you are saying,

As you should. He knows his stuff.
 
With OTA's right round the corner, the WR group will receive significant coverage, scrutiny and analysis.

If Jayden does have difficulty trusting receivers and other than Terry and Deebo perhaps not being able to trust any of the group, it will be interesting to see how things play out.

By all accounts the receivers highly outed for their route running abilities are Terry, Williams and Jefferson.

Jefferson has received little attention thus far as most of us figure he is odd man out. I mean he isn't that fast and really is just another slot...but he can separate and run routes well.

Should be a good competition for the back end of the WR group (assuming they bring in at least one legit WR2)...yeah, I know what happens when you assume
