Kiwibrown Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Coleman Landry OL OL OL OL OL Njoku Gordon Tyrod Duke If our offense looks like that week one, shouldn't we be more excited than we are currently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETSGOBROWNIES Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 I’m already excited. I think this team was set up well for a huge jump and Dorsey has done well with the considerable assets provided to him. If Huey can keep from stepping on his own dck we’ll be ok.

H2ThaIzzo Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 I want to see what Coleman can become with a healthy third season and having Gordon and Landry on the field with him. He's been a disappointment so far, but I really have no idea how much the broken hand has had an impact on his inconsistent ability to catch the football.

I think he could do well with an accurate qb. I don’t think he is a jump ball guy. He made lots of diving catches which if were better throws may generated some yac.

I really think he hasn't gotten to show much of that because of inconsistent QB play and injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizzyDean Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 There is tons of reason for optimism on not just offense, but defense as well. Our secondary has been completely overhauled, while there are questions, I do not see how it could possibly have been downgraded. Hopefully a healthy Garrett and Ogbah. Our ST hopefully will be better with the WR we snagged from the Pats. All of this before we select 5 players (maybe more) in a very loaded draft in the first 2 rounds. 8 and 8 should be within reach, even before the draft. We also have Hyde in the backfield for the offense who I think will be better than Crowell. Gordon hopefully back to himself and clean. Taylor is exponentially better than any QB we have had in a long long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care who the coach is if we are winning. Yes, Hue has been terrible here, but he was set up for failure with the roster, and also partially by his own design without having an OC. He was decent in Oakland as a head coach, he was good as an OC with cinci, and even as a secondary coach in his history. I fully expect a huge turn around, and all of the petty hate for him here to vanish almost instantly. There will be couple of stubborn posters that hold on, but most will just be thrilled to be playing competitive football and winning, and will either have praise for Hue, or nothing at all to say about him.

Ah, but apparently this leopard has changed his spots, thus the dramatic difference in his results here, and his results spanning decades in other places.

Kiwibrown Posted April 13, 2018 Author Share Posted April 13, 2018 I don’t think he has displayed great character. Throwing people under the bus isn’t leadership. I don’t think you can lead without integrity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
