Interview with Duke
#32
(01-21-2020, 04:52 PM)BengalChris Wrote: I will agree that the draft has left a lot to be desired the last few years, but the roster is far from shitty though. There are some holes, like OL and LB, but the DL is good and deep, the secondary has quality, RB is good, TE is well stocked, WR has depth issues.

I look at how little this coaching staff got from some quality players. The secondary has far more talent than how they played under this staff. The same is true for TEs and the DL. And look at how long it took them to figure out they had Mixon on the roster. The usage of the players is the coaching staff's job and they didn't make much use of these guys. Marv got a lot more out of these guys than Taylor did.

From what I see it will take Burrow just taking over the team and willing it to victory to make this coaching staff look good and maybe he'll do that and the coaches will look smart. We'll have to see. it was Payton Manning who took Indy and later the Denver to the SB, it wasn't Tony Dungy or John Fox that made that happen.

 

I'll admit I wasn't at all impressed with the creativity on offense and Taylor made some head scratching calls. The inability to run the ball with Mixon early in the season was puzzling. We were on pace to be historically bad and I thought that Mixon would excel in Taylor's system.  My guess is maybe the line was adjusting to a new scheme as well as a new O-line coach. The O-line outside of Hopkins was a mess for the most part. Starting John Jerry or Andre Smith isn't ideal.  The defense as a whole was terrible in Marvin's last two seasons ranking at the bottom of the league. The free agent signings of B.W. Webb, Wynn and John Miller did little to improve the team
