The Packers game was a hard one to swallow. There are fans half my age that are sick of the losing seasons. That's bad for the organization, but it gets worse:
"Starting out second-and-10 isn't great either. They're just drive killers. It kind of limits the stuff Luke (Getsy) can call. Strategically, then you're trying to get breathing room for the punt."
Cole Kmet
2&10 and the team is thinking about the punt!
We can't win with that.
It's not all on Getsy, sadly. I watched the preseason hoping to see one thing from Fields-the ability to make second and third reads. I still haven't seen that from him. Until he can make them, we will get more of the same.
The coaching and play calling is abysmal. Line coaching is lackluster on both sides of the ball, Getsy's play calling is just as predictable as Nagy's, and the head coach has players thinking about the punt on 2&10.
Making the playoffs is probably wishful thinking.
It would be nice if the whole team played like our secondary. They're coached well. Hat's off to the DB coaches. It's tough to evaluate running backs coaching, because they rarely have a hole to run through.
As a note, I hated writing this post. It's the same story though. Our best season seems to be the offseason and that needs to change.
