Grubb

[Cyrus12]

Did he forget we had rb's? Not ready...like many on this team hope there is some accountability with the coaching staff like they've shown with the players.

Doesn’t help they got Down big in a hurry

 

[Cyrus12]

True but can't let a bad qb come in and just let him throw continuously...

 

[nwHawk]

Terrible play calling today.

Did Grubb even call a single screen pass? By mid 2nd quarter I just couldn't give my full attention anymore and put the game on in the background and started playing Path of Exile.

 

[Hollandhawk]

He loves abandoning the run. I'm sick of it.

 

[Glasgow Seahawk]

I was back on board last week. This week...yikes.

Just absolutely abandoned the run, especially once Howell came in who just took sacks.

If the Dolphins fire McDaniel, we've got to make that move and hire him as OC.

JS should also be feeling uncomfortable for the shambles of an Oline he has built.

 

[evergreen]

His seat should be getting hot. I’d rather pay Damien Lewis than the trash we got.

Howell's first snap was a poorly blocked screen where JSN was immediately dropped three yards behind the LOS. That's the only one I can remember.

As this continues, kind of makes me miss the days of Darrell Bevel and Tom Cable.

I missed it, was it the same tunnel screen that worked for a few games but teams figured out? Need RB screens, especially since we have the backs to excell at it

18 straight pass plays in the third quarter. 18. With that offensive line. And (mostly) Sam Howell.

I don't care that they were down 17-3 at the time. That's only two scores.

18 straight passes. You can't tell me Mike is pleased with that kind of thing.

 

[Fresno Hawk]

For me, I am sick of this college type offense Grubb has put on display. The defense isn't great. But the offense stinks. If the oline is bad. Why not do exactly what was done with the defense. Start cutting players and try and get some oline help through trades.

The trade deadline is up. There's literally zero options until the season is over. The oline is what it is.

I know the trade deadline is up, my point is why didn't we make any trades for the oline before the deadline. Or start cutting players. We've had plenty of time to see the oline was weak. We did nothing to help that need.

I’ve been pro Grubb all year but last night was not a good night for Grubb.

Trade for who? Oline is one of the toughest positions to trade for. Even if you somehow did, which would cost a lot, it's not a plug and play position. They need reps and continuity more than any other position.

I don't pay attention to every other teams players. But i would guess that if they really wanted to they could have found someone. They just didn't put the effort into searching for oline help. All the moves we've done have been on defense.

I'm saying no they couldn't, there wasn't even an option available. Oline is not a position that has very many players available for trade. If they did find someone willing to, the price would be so high they couldn't afford it. They also still have money tied up in Adams this season. This off-season will be MacDonald's first real chance to address it.

 

[Hotchy]

Grubb is over his head at the moment. I'm just not into these guys that just throw. Pounding the rock sets an attitude and helps the defense out tremendously. And if the line can't block, why so many slow developing routes and not more quick hitters.
I think hiring a rookie HC and pairing him up with rookie OC was a losing proposition
