You're the coach. What do you do differently?

You nailed it here. When our QB is under pressure from the moment he finishes his drop there has to be something changed. A screen pass is the obvious answer. Instead we stuck with what we started with and just about got Timmy killed.

Now I don’t think Tebow played a great game last night by any means, don’t take that wrong; but I also don’t think the coaches made any adjustments to give him any shot at all.

when the blitz is sooooo evident. How about rushing people up the middle to collapse the pocket. Those are major issues that need addressed and soon.

Give them another year and see who’s breathing fire and who’s squirting peach seeds.

no huddle play very loose attack against NE everyone else tweak for more west coast routes when tebow runs around have a safety value near by and when they cover it throw deep

We need to get the short passing game (YAC) and screen game going. The way New England, Detroit, and Buffalo blitzed us / stacked 8 to 9 in the box…. they would have got burned by some screen passes when selling out. This is where Lance Ball is useless, and Moreno is a stud. If Lance Ball remains our 2nd stringer next year, I will puke. He has hands of stone. If it’s not Moreno, then Lamar Miller / LaMichael James perhaps in the draft.

We also have to find a way to get the TE’s involved in the passing game. It’s no secret what Tebow did in Florida, and Tom Brady is doing right now with Hernandez as the H-Back. If Julius Thomas is a pretender, and sucked this year rather than taking a red shirt… then we need to move on and find that guy. Fells is clutch… but we need a consistent threat in the seams.

If Kuper can’t ever regain his old form (that injury was sickening in a bad, bad way), then I suggest a power RG in the mold of Carl Nicks/Jahri Evans from Nawlins. New England also has a hella great Guard combo with Mankins/Brian Waters…. we need to follow the leader. I’m talking about an earth mover with pass block skills. I’ve heard it thrown around that Franklin could be this type of interior lineman…. and we could either draft beast RT…. or see if Ryan Harris has a few more goes in the tank.

I love Matt Willis as a 4th option… 1st reserve off the bench…. but we can do better in our starting 3. DT and Decker are locks going forward as our #1 and #2 (DT the big play guy ~ Decker the clutch, possession guy). But Eddie Royal is nothing more than a return man these days. Could we trade him to Shanny for a 5th or 6th at this point, or is he a FA? Either way…. he’s most likely gone. I’d be thrilled to see us draft a Randall Cobb / Percy Harvin type threat at Wide Out. It would really complete our WR core. Roscoe Parrish… the FA from Buffalo could fill this role if he didn’t get hurt so much. We need a shifty little speedster, who can run all the option / trick plays + be a massive YAC / screen player.

In summation: a secondary RB (preferably one with speed who can catch as well), a receiving TE with some speed so Tebow can terrorize the seams, a road grading Guard if the FO deems Kuper or Beadles replaceable, and lastly, a nasty little slot receiver. Any arguments towards my vision to fix this offense?

Safety…. oh Denver Bronco Safety…. wherefore art thou Atwater & Lynch? It was looking pretty decent when Dawk and Carter were the starters… but outside of that, Carter stumbled some on his own, Rahim Moore looks like an absolute bust, and Bruton / Bush haven’t shown me anything to suggest consistent starter. Out of this entire bunch, Quinton Carter is the only one who showed me some worth moving forward. I would say we should draft a stud if the opportunity arises…. but this is once again a crappy Safety pool. Maybe Mark Barron??? IDK. Free agent options should be looked at heavily in the offseason.

Brodrick Bunkley cemented himself as a starter for the future, but Marcus Thomas… Mitch Unrein… Ryan McBean… and Ty Warren could all be upgraded. Marcus Thomas made some plays here and there (so did McBean), but I would jump at the chance to replace them with Jared Crick, or someone of that style… a penetrator who makes a living in opponents backfields. If I were in charge… I might even double dip into the DT pool this year.

Joe Mays stinks something terrible. He would be a 3rd stringer on a lot of teams. Why is he still the starter? Who kidnapped Nate Irving? Does Nate Irving just suck that bad or was he given a mandatory red shirt year? Who knows… but something must be done about it. I know Burfict does some boneheaded crap from time to time, but that dude’s skillset and athleticism intrigues me. Is our locker room strong enough to keep him in line? If so…. I say we pull that trigger if he’s sitting there when we pick. If not him, then Stephen Tulloch or Curtis Lofton as FA replacements.

Doom and Von Miller are the pass rushing tandem from hell…. Ayers is steady, but could provide more help in that dept. If a player like Bruce Irvin is sitting there at the top of the 3rd, I say we make a trade happen. We all saw what Aldon Smith did in a reserve role this year. IF Bruce Irvin, or whoever pans out as expected…. Ayers could be cut loose after the season (if he doesn’t progress as a pass rusher next year).

Finally…. Champ Bailey, Chris Harris, and possibly Syd’Quan are keepers. Everyone else is either “meh,” or hideous (yes, that’s you Nate Jones… I mean Jonathan Wilhite). I would prefer to find a younger FA option to fill the #2 CB role (if Harris stays at Nickel). CB’s have a huge bust rate…. let’s fill this hole with some experience until a better option arises in a future draft. Asante Samuel…. Brent Grimes (if he would play #2)… someone of that nature to keep the torch for a couple years until we can do better. The Tom Brady’s, Drew Brees’, and Mathew Stafford’s of the world are going to keep eating us alive until we accumulate more talent / depth in the defensive backfield.

In summary: a DT or two, a backup DE, Safety/CB help, and a MLB.

I think we needed to be blitzing almost ever down, that is the only way to beat Tom Brady. And yeah running on 3rd and 20 while we were down by 14 or 21 points, what do you have to lose? Throw it, screen passes definetly would have been perfect

I’m the lone idiot who wrongly clicked on Fox and McCoy in the poll.

Sorry.
