He's about there breh :skip:

It's stunning that someone who has a father who was a long time NFL assistant looks so fukking inept at basic game stewardship.

His father wasn't all that competent as well. :pachaha:

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. :mjlol:

Russ and the players need to throw his goofy ass under the bus on the low. :unimpressed:

Was he one of these "genius" coaches?

For calling that "cute" shyt on 3rd and Short in @Supa's post, I would say he is. :jordanfacepalm:

I'd be willing to bet one of the issues of their offensive operation is the verbiage with their play calls. It's one of the drawbacks of the West Coast Offense, because some plays have a tag for damn near every position on the field. Russell may be having a hard time adjusting to that part, depending on how intricate the playcalls were in Seattle.

The Jets used to have very similar issues with their offensive operation when Hackett's dad (Paul) was the OC under Herm Edwards, particularly whenever Vinny Testaverde was starting. Once Chad Pennington was inserted, the operation ran smoother. By the time Paul Hackett became OC, Vinny was a long time NFL QB playing in the WCO for the first time. By the time Nathaniel Hackett became the Broncos HC, Russell Wilson was a long time NFL QB who I'm assuming is playing in the WCO for the first time, so it makes you wonder if something similar is occurring in regards to Vinny & Russ not being comfortable yet with the verbiage aspect of the playcalling.

Regardless, it's still a coaching issue and it needs to be cleaned up, whatever it is. I'm not trying to pass the buck from Hackett to Wilson, just throwing out some food for thought about Denver's shoddy coordination.

And if anyone knows for sure, please correct me if I'm incorrect about this being Wilson's first time running the WCO. I can't remember if Pete Caroll ever hired an OC that ran it during Wilson's time in Seattle.

Folks might disagree since the overwhelming majority of offenses are seemingly some variation of West Coast, but this makes sense.

Problem is, if that IS what's happening, you immediately have to ask what the fukk everyone's been doing since March. The possibility that nowhere in the course of OTAs, minicamps, training camp, or even just sitting around on the sideline while not playing in the preseason, was the language of the offense not addressed? Because whether it's hammering into Russell's head or changing the terminology to be more familiar, there's no way this should be an issue any further than the first few practices.

He should be fired today for this alone:mjlol:



3rd & 1 you got Javonte and Melvin yet you give it to a TE whose only previous carry was in 2019. Didn't even run up the middle but had his slow ass try to get to the edge:laff: . Then you don't get the FG unit out there in time and have to punt.

We've seen enough. You can't fix incompetence.

But Bienemy didn't interview well:sas2:

This was the sequence that made me lose my shyt.
