Were you completely against this before the game captain hindsight? Were you talking about how stupid it was then? [Reply]

I'll listen off air.
They tried screens and they didn't work. The Bucs were all over them.
The certain weren't going to run right at Suh and Vea. That would have been suicide.
I'm interested to know what kind of gameplay would have worked considering so many think they mailed it in. [Reply]

There are a lot more short plays that aren't screens. The game plan against the Bills was what we should have done. That game the ball was coming out of Mahomes hands really quickly and a bunch of passes were in the air 5-10 yards where we let the WR/TE do the rest. [Reply]

By doing that both sides were major weaknesses. We could have kept Remmers at RT, Wylie at LG and then used someone else at LT and doubled that up. Instead we compounded the backup issue by moving everyone around.
This is a rare occasion when we see things similarly. This is exactly what I’ve been saying since the game (and during/before the game). Remmers was solid at RT and moving him was a huge mistake the coaches should have seen coming.
In 709 snaps at RT, Remmers didn’t give up a single sack and was only flagged 4 times all year.
I’d like to hear the justification behind moving him to LT instead of plugging in someone else there and giving chip help from backs and tight ends. [Reply]
This situation smells a lot like Andy being out of his mind due to the situation with Britt and handing off responsibilities to his coaches which shit the bed.

But I may be wrong.
That may explain why Bienemy can't get a HC job. Maybe he needs his hand held too much. [Reply]
Should've moved Remmers back to RT, Wylie to G, and like Rankin at LT with Sausage in the backfield to help pass and run block + catch and run the ball.
I mean, we have one of the most versatile and athletic FBs in the league, and we NEVER use him.
The Super Bowl would've been a great place to bust out those fresh sausage legs... [Reply]
Say what they want about going up against our best tackles even though they got beat by our best tackles during regular season that didn't play in the Super Bowl. [Reply]
