Somewhere the idea was adopted that all promotion needed to come from within... Bad idea.Originally Posted by JayC
You can look at the play chart, and meanwhile, I just watched the game.McDonald can't get touches from the locker room.
There were no deep passes early because the first 2 drives basically started and ended in the red zone. Clearly no one trusts Rudolph to throw in the compressed areas of the field. And the rest of the game showed why - he does not get the ball out quick enough yet.
Rudolph throw over five yards complete just twice. He was bad and the WRs dropped a few. Fichtner can draw up anything and everything, but this passing chart documents poor QB play. Or perhaps a raw QB harassed by a pass rush. Something - https://twitter.com/Marcus_Mosher/st...69562019450880
Rudolph was shackled behind a conservative passing game for good two and a half quarters. Fichtner wanted to play “Hide the Quarterback”. The Niners Defense smelled blood. Until Rudolph broke under the constant pressure and threw a pick.
The Forty Niners take their first lead, then Rudolph was allowed to throw longer than five yards. He suddenly was much more successful, the Offensive Line improved just a bit, and all of the yips mysteriously disappeared.
You call it poor quarterback play. I call it bad coaching and game plan.
Agree. 2nd half they did more of "letting Mason be Mason". The dude was a big play specialist in college. Heck maybe this offense is gonna be the new Jeff Blake offense where every other pass is a bomb
Sorry Hawk, I didn’t realize that you are the board’s post police. Okay, so let’s try this. I understand that Mason spent his collegiate career in the shotgun formation, but he worked extensively during the off-season on his mechanics and lining up under center. In fact, he looked pretty damn good at it when he hit McDonald in the end zone for a td against Seattle. So, lining up in the shotgun with a rb on your side does nothing to freeze the linebackers. Had they brought Mason under center, play action could have been utilized much more. However, others have already said it that our OL, particularly our tackles were getting beating like little bitches all day, so the likelihood that he would have set up on a pass play and been hit immediately was probably better as well. Our offense was bland and one dimensional to say the least and it’s the coaches fault - all of it. So Hawk, tell me what the Steelers should have done and please be constructive as if the coaches are listening!
The coordinators have been in a decline for all of Tomlin’s tenure. The reason you are really starting to see it on offense at this point is because Mike Munchak is gone and Ben isn’t there to cover it up. They’ve always been bad...you just never noticed it this much. Defense and Special Teams. well we all know those stories.
Got some buddies who are Eagles fans. Their message boards are all absolutely convinced, I mean dead certain, that that entire staff are morons and couldn't coach a peewee team.
Just saying.
So pretty much the state of Pa...lol. It’s the water...

Did they save (catch) babies in a house fire and throw shade at Agholor while being interviewed on TV?
I don't know how you promote a Sub Par QB coach to OC....someone make that make sense to Me...he hasn't developed 1 back up since he's been in Pitt...now he's the OC ???
I saw that online. That is some great shade.
So why do the Steelers want to trade for Agholor??
Maybe you shouldn't let your quarterback choose the offensive coordinator.
