You summed up my frustration for the last 3 years with the OC and the O-line coach. Nice post! :2thumbs:austinslater25":1ooapeb8 said:I love Pete, John as much as anyone but to be honest its frustrating that no one in the building said anything or saw this as well. How much time was wasted and how much has it stunted Wilson's growth? I think Wilson is going to be fine and an all time great but as a fan its frustrating. Someone above nailed it, Pete put too much trust in someone who was an "expert" and it cost him. Would love to hear his thoughts on this interview too.

As far as I'm concerned, Darryl Bevell, Russell Wilson, Germaine Ifedi, Duane Brown, or for that matter, the WHOLE DAMNED O-Line for the last SIX YEARS was as much a victim of Cable's failing leadership....He was the BAD BOSS with the final say on Offense.
His "Guru" status grew from the accomplishments of the Wilson & Lynch combo.
The O-Line wasn't Coached up by Cable, to help any other RB that followed.
I agree that the players need to make plays alright, but they need to be COACHED UP to make "Plays" WORK.

The linebackers and defenders know exactly where it's going and they come right downhill and defend it. When you look at some of the stuff Kansas City was doing, having motions in the backfield and they run the zone with it. So they have more things for defenders to look at and read.

Not entirely true, Cable had last word on the run game, not the passing game.
Which IMO was part of the problem, Pete allowed a dysfunctional co-offensive coordinator dynamic to exist with Bevell and Cable both installing game planes, schemes and scripted playcalling.
Hard to be successful with the offense being pulled in two different directions by two coaches with differing opinions on how to install game plans and call plays. Probably why we were throwing the gameplans out the window after the first two series EVERY game.
