I picked fire Waldron because all of the same issues keep happening every week that are things an OC is supposed to monitor, adjust, fix. At least to start the year their opening script for two drives was stellar and then the team would fall apart. Now they can't do anything and continue to ignore the run game. Pete doesn't call plays, it's well documented, he is involved for sure but that is on Waldron each down. Calling 3 total runs to a running back with a clearly sore Geno by half time is insane.
Last night was night and day comparing how a current NFL offense should be designed. Balanced, motion everywhere, clearing out zones with someone filling it uncovered. How many times did Shanahan get his stars into uncovered situations? I feel like we have to watch JSN, Lockett, and DK make circus catches just to move the ball. Any OC worth their weight can get a trio like that some easy chunk plays.
Overall though, this is the same old system Pete implements since he got here and he doesn't seem to hire anyone who would threaten to break from it. Route tree is beyond basic, design is vanilla, seems like they default to go routes rather than attack middle of the field. There were far too many plays without a single player in the middle whether it was a TE, WR working across, or RB out of the backfield. How is that not a simple staple to move the ball? Every other team uses it.
