Quality coaches take good teams and make them better week by week. What was a weakness, is eliminated, and when they get to November they are rolling. Average coached teams do not fix their weaknesses and are still making the same mistakes the last part of the schedule that they were making early in the year. Good coaches find out what works and keep hammering that home.
This team has played 9 games, what is our offensive identity? I really have no clue, we have yet to settle on a feature back and give him most of the carriers, the team has talent in the TE position and we do not use that to our advantage. 9 games in we are still trying to figure out who is our featured receiver that is reliable and get the job done, maybe this team just does not have that guy and we need to look elsewhere when throwing the ball.
We can all complain about the injuries to the corners, but we still are allowing WRs to run up field without a player going with them. Yesterday we were playing a running QB and we allowed them to scheme us into situations where they were blocking 5 on 4 way to often. When do we start taking away from the opponent that they do best? We get zero pressure on the QB, we have giving up the edge more than not on defense and allowing the runner to get outside, basic things that are taught in middle school we still struggle with doing. We have no defensive identity other than we are playing a 3 down lineman and hope.
