Big win for you. You called this one first. Kudos!! [Reply]
Does Elijah Mitchell, a true runner, signal that these moves are part of a greater plan to evolve into an offense that could run the football more multiple?
Andy spoke to the fact that he thought the lack of run game threat was the biggest issue in SB. Maybe that’s the fix from where he sits, and therefore the scheme fit issues become less impactful, if they do exist, as far as integrating Moore. [Reply]

I think it's a sign they realize the RB position is a problem and Pacheco's style has already caused him to start breaking down. [Reply]

Yeah, but how do you also work around the possibility that Moore can’t do what they have traditionally liked their tackles to do?
You become a more serious, stable rush offense. Not all that dissimilar to what Buffalo did under Joe Brady. [Reply]

If past history is anything to go off of, they'll continue to ask Moore to do things he can't do and then the fans will call him a pile of shit. [Reply]

His injury wasn't really because of his playing style. He was running between tackles...which every single RB in the NFL does. [Reply]

I thnk that is just coachspeak and trying to throw Mahomes a bone. We were down like the entire game. We only even tried to run the ball 6 times. Our lack of running game, if that even is true, had absolutely nothing to do with our issues in the SB. [Reply]

Maybe if more people say it, people will start listening instead of just reflexively defending him.

Not perfect but he has a floor and it’s way higher than anything we had last year. I would take Orlando Brown Jr back over the shit we’ve had.
Every Jaylon Moore 3rd and medium-long one-on-one True Pass set from last year.
- Consistently in the way - Good latch when connected - Generally balanced through set - Pressed by speed & length - Wasn't asked to get deep up the arc - Ball was out QUICK pic.twitter.com/q1G9s7exB3
Gonna disagree that this draft will be all about defense. I think veach is all in on reversing the regression on offense. I have a feeling we’re gonna go heavy on OL and also consider a RB or TE. Veach is notorious for finding FAs on 1-2 year deals while actively also trying to find their replacement. It’s unlike veach to solve his biggest issue by bandaiding it and calling it a day. Last time he overhauled the OL he bombarded this roster with draft picks (creed, trey), bandaids (Blythe) and free agency (thuney/obj).
I don’t think the value will be there in the first round for offense. But I imagine it will be in the later rounds [Reply]
