I was particularly curious about Scott Huff, wondering if there could be some friction with his style going from coaching college kids to coaching pros. I thought it was ballsy going with that much inexperience in an area that the team has had so many issues with. That was going to be JSs approach. Different coaches rather than a different approach with his personnel.
So they went ahead and signed Peters

I totally agree about Geno's foot work. In the past, it was what I thought was most lacking.

The Lions pressured the shit out of him, and he was able to elude and make throws down field. He played a hell of a ball game. Again, really nothing to hang our heads about. I see us trouncing the G Men next week.
what has got into him at this point in his career, but we are lucky and better hope he stays healthy.
Truly shocking.
Re: Postmortem - Seattle v Motor City
Geno's pocket presence looked elite to me - very veteran-like. Not perfect, but very very good. What really stood out to me was the offense looked like it was operating with purpose - not just the random play calling we have seen over the last few years, but there seemed to be a philosophy, an actual plan unfolding, part of a bigger plan, and so much of it based on what the defense was doing. A strategic approach. SO refreshing.trharder wrote: ↑Wed Oct 02, 2024 1:48 pmI totally agree about Geno's foot work. In the past, it was what I thought was most lacking.

Something that gets overlooked - is Geno's athleticism - he's a very athletic player - he just doesn't show it often because he is looking to pass first. In this new age of QB's coming out of college, there is a lot of quick look and then run happening as QB's are no longer getting trained to be a true pocket passing threat in college anymore. College coaches are fighting for their jobs - it's "win now to keep my job, fuck future player development", so wins right now matter most to them - so they no longer invest in the long term development of a QB who might up and transfer tomorrow anyway. It's what college football has become. Pocket-passing first QB's are slowly becoming a thing of the past - and a huge reason for the clear decline of the college game - due to the new NIL rules. There is no benefit to developing players anymore - and this impact is being felt in the NFL now - and it's only going to grow.

Re: Postmortem - Seattle v Motor City
Agreed. Again, for the first time in years it looked like we actually gameplanned based on the team we were playing, and didn’t just show up and say “this is what we do, so we are doing it again”.
