This kid is not sincere. I have been going back and forth with him for months on the fact that effort and fundamental techniques and discipline are absolutely nonexistent foremost on the OL but all over the offense really.
Everyone knows that is on the COACHING not the talent. Hell, if they are that bad then they need to play fundamentally sound ALL THE MORE making Nagy's failures as a coach even MORE pronounced that he cannot even get them to basically play their own positions correctly at the level of college kids.
First few times back and forth, I understand him being unsure, hesitant, slow to take my word and needs to watch the tape to see that NO OTHER OL in the whole league (never mind efficient HS D1 recruits you can see any given Friday night!) repeatedly stands up, gets blown off or even gets turned around - by their own CONFUSION - 180 DEGREES more than our guys ...
again that is NOT talent level but failure to play their own positions correctly at the most basic level!
At this point, he is just contrarian and blindly so and making straw men of our positions and being quite quixotic by
a) acting like he is honestly engaging us while
b) twisting our words and deconstructing our points into gibberish so he can try and frame the debate in a way that favors his own view in his own simplistic mind: "Bad players. Blame Pace. Nagy is not perfect but poor Nagy deserves better."
Sad part is he isn't even wrong about Pace but Christ, this kid has no ability to understand the whole picture and has ZERO humility when talking with others.
There's a part of me that thinks he was just so in on the "Mitch is the biggest reason why this team sucks" narrative(what i think as well as far as 2019 goes) that now that the heat is on Nagy, it gives Mitch defenders more of a reason to say i told you so. BTW Mitch defenders, you don't, he's still major ass.
I do disagree with you that its on coaching and not talent. I think its a lethal combination of both but since Pace is in charge of everything, i give him the most blame. I know this OL is really lacking in talent and depth but i still don't see how you could be this bad at offense this consistently. It shouldn't look like garbage every single week regardless of your opponent. They should have been better vs the Titans, point blank. That's on Nagy. Even the really bad Bears offenses of past would have occasional good games vs tomato cans. But i do think it's really hard to run an offense with a line this bad and the QBs to match. But they simply cant do anything. They cant run it. They can barely line up without wasting a time out or getting a penalty. The sheer amount of confusion and panic doesn't make sense. If this scheme is so complicated, its time to rethink it.
I never understood the constant musical chairs of offensive lineman. They say put the best 5 out there but id rather have 3 players who play a position the best and two guys who don't. Know where your strengths are and try to improve upon your weaknesses.
Maybe he's being contrarian. Maybe it's sincere. I honestly don't care. I just don't want to see people keep saying that people claim it's all on ____ when there's a massive failure from a front office, to coaching, to personnel level.
But i knew something wasn't right with Nagy after he fired his position coaches. That screamed snake to me. And hiring a bunch of guys who were out of the league....really questionable. Nagy wanted yes men.
I just keep coming back to this. Nagy has been here 3 years. Mitch couldn't run his system. His backup of choice couldn't run his system. Foles can't run his system. His OL can't run his system. The only RB who looked remotely ok in this system was traded away. Nagy doesn't make the final decisions but he's apart of the processes of building this team and again, these are his assistants. You absolutely cannot have an offense this poor and not be major part of the problem. Major soul searching has to take place over the next few weeks if Nagy would like to be here 2021 and beyond. Like i said when this team was 5-1, they were about to go on an epic collapse similar to the 09 Broncos and here we go. Hard to survive that.
