Linehan’s stupidity continues to show: Elliott hasn’t scored a rushing touchdown in 4 games

[kskboys]

Yes.

But you have to work with what the defense is doing.

Inside the RZ the TE, the back corner fade is not being covered.

They do not have enough in the secondary to cover.

Gallop showed us that last week.

So did Schultz.

Absolutely. So throw it.

The fact that we're not points straight to Linehan.

 

[kskboys]

At least once, I would love to see the I formation inside the 5, goal to goal. Nope, all we see, is mostly running from shotgun, which involves long developing, reach block, plays.
.

Who runs it from the shotgun in the red zone?

And don't forget all the empty backfield plays.

I know its easy and fun to take the normal shots at Linehan (who i wanted gone 2 years ago).
But unless its within 1-2 yards i don't know that the interior of our O line is going to move anyone.

Our redzone offense problems are terrible. But i dont think its as simple as just handing the ball to Zeke.

For what it’s worth, The OL is ranked 9th in the NFL in run blocking.

It cost me a fantasy championship and 2 grand!!! One TD last week and I win the throphy!!!!!!!

I won my Championship with Zeke. Waiting for my $2500.

With our redzone issues, you would assume we would try and give it to our best player.

Ha! That's just what they *expect* us to do! But we fool them!

Genius, baby!

 

[buybuydandavis]

I disagree that Linehan knows what is needed. He's kinda gone out of his way to prove that he doesn't.

ABL for OC!

Anyone But Linehan.

Well, those 5 yard passes are Dak's bread and butter. Maybe Linehan is trying to play to Dak's strengths.

 

[Reid1boys]

just 1 example of a really good call that should have worked.

Il give you another..... I dont know exactly what the play was, but our TE was 10 yards down field with nobody within 7-8 yards of him, Dak stepped right into it and threw it behind him and the ball was dropped.... but because our QB fails to execute, we say the play caller is an idiot.

Sad isn't it?!?!?!?

Would love to see what a run happy OC could do w/ this bunch!!!

Man, reid, you are missing a ton. All OC's call good plays at times. Pointing out a couple good play calls that weren't executed doesn't prove he's good.

Dak's execution does need to be upgraded. No one's denying that. (Aside from maybe a few homers which you shouldn't argue w/ anyway!!!)

Yea because they have the #1 RB in the league.

The rankings dont tell us much to be honest.

 

[Aviano90]

Hard to score TDs when your RB fumbles in the red zone.

 

[kskboys]

Yup. What EZ is doing is answering the question of whether 2016 was the OL or the RB. It was both.

 

[Thomas82]

Even the running plays we DO try are slow developing or require reach blocks. It should be no mystery why we have goal to go issues.

Well said .

That'll buy a lot of PBRs! Salud!

It's because of the OL. They get zero push.

Has nothing to do with Linehan.......

Yup and then Linehan tries calling plays easier for Dak to connect with and again gets criticized for being to vanilla.

Just curious....... did Andy Reid get in some extra head coaches and offensive play calling classes this year? Because, damn... he became an offensive guru this year. I wonder what the chiefs PPG is this year compared to last. Good thing he puts in the extra hours.

 

[eromeopolk]

That stupid play calling inside the 5 yard line without and extra OL, 2 TE, FB and a run play to Zeke proves changes should be made at OC and HC.

That dumb play calling cost me a Fantasy Football Championship. That dummy actually called a WR sweep at the 2 yard line vs. Tampa.
