If not this coaching staff then why did Zombo end up playing for Reid and the Chiefs?
Why did Giacomi end up starting for Belechich after here and Guy Lawrence playing a role on the D Line?
Barbre ended up playing for another team(forget who).
Tretter starting for Bengals. Hayward became a PB on Chargers. Hyde I think is on Bills?
There are other players as well and some of these were cap decisions. The first group was more of the point of failed draft and develop.
2 years ago Rogers had one of the best O Lines. This year he's been sacked 33 times as if the beginning of last night's Vike game. The interior is porus. What was once a strength is now a big time weakness. Letting Tretter, Lang and Sitton go was a mistake at the time. Yes Sitton is out hurt this year and Lang is saying will retire at end of season. But look what since their departure, AR out on IR last year and 33 sacks this year.
I might accept that couldn't keep both Lang and Sitton for cap reasons, but should have kept Lang.
Personally I liked Tretter better then Lindsey. Plus he played all along the OL. And what are people here saying? We need an OL that can play more then one position, when we had one. The talent level has taken a step backwards.
Seems the coaching staff on the Defensive side is doing better then their Offensive counter parts in having players ready. With number 1 CB out, #1 Safety traded, Whitehead cut, and now all the injuries yet held Vikings to 24 points.
The talk about AR not having weapons like he used to carries a little bit of weight.
However, Brees is on a roll throwing to 4 undrafted free agents WRs.
It's MM and his staff's jobs to have these guys ready and to call plays to build their confidence and best chance at completions. We used to rely on short passes and players making yards after the catch. Now seems like always long balls. That can't be all on AR.
Then does this make sense? Kumerow has been cleared and ready to play. The 6,3 WR has nfl bloodlines, speed, and was the darling of TC and pre season that caught everything that came his way. Why hasn't he been activated when then Offense needs all the help it can get?
