I think those teams are smart enough to know that Eric isn't in charge of placing the relative value on the OL, and he can't do a whole lot to control the injuries and opt-outs either.

The oline was bad, but Andy's plan was horrible. Maybe the most frustrating part of the game was watching Tampa run the game plan and playcalls that we should have been running.
We've seen this O struggle before when defenses take away Hill and Kelce so Andy should have adapted. He could have used Clyde more in the passing game, done some screen passes, jet sweeps, or anything creative. Not one trick play is bizarre - he's trying to pass to Mahomes against the Falcons, but no creativity in the biggest game of the year?
That being said, even with a better game plan, we still may have lost because the oline was that bad, refs were against us, and we made dumb mistakes like dropped balls, timeouts before halftime, etc.
The depressing thing is that if Andy hasn't learned by now after all of his experience, then there is a chance that he never will and he will cost us more super bowls. He's still a good coach - just maybe not good enough to lead a dynasty.
We do know that Mahomes is good enough - it's about time Andy give Mahomes more control and maybe some no huddle action like what teams allowed Peyton Manning to do and let Pat make some calls at the line. [Reply]
